9 Months! Wedding Maps & Photographers

I can't believe I have 9 months to go until the wedding! I know its probably a lot of time but since I am leaving for Sri Lanka through December that really only leaves me 8 months. So much to do, so little time.

So I found this great little tool called Wedding Mapper that is great if you are having a lot of events, having a destination wedding or having a lot of out of town guests.

Also, I am in the process of trying to find a photographer. I was looking at Aaron Delesie and Yvette Roman (courtesy of references from Style Me Pretty's little black book). Aaron was great when we talked but then never got back to me. When I called him, his assistant said he had already booked the date which was dissapointing. Mostly because I really liked him and he didn't even bother calling me to tell me that someone else wanted or potentially already had the date booked. Yvette is great and she has some beautiful shots. Her style reminds me of Elizabeth Messina but she is definitely more affordable. I'm waiting to get a slideshow from her before I make any other decisions.

I was also referred to Jenny from Red Loft Studios who also takes some gorgeous pictures and really offers affordable packages. I'm also waiting for a slideshow from her before I make decisions. Finally, I'm looking at Andrena Photography who takes some really beautiful, vibrant pictures and also specializes in Indian weddings which is a huge plus. She is also very affordable and I am anxiously awaiting talking to her on the phone so I can get an idea of her personality.

I am trying to just stop my search now and focus on choosing between Jenny, Yvette and Andrena. They are all great and affordable. Also, honestly I can't handle looking for any more photographers. I'll keep you posted on who I decide.
