Rebecca Bird (soon to be Cline) R.N.
I can not even believe it after putting wedding planning on hold for a whole month so I could study for the NCLEX (Boards for nursing) I can finally say that I am done and can start really get to planning.

So a few updates:
- Rescheduled our phone planning session to September 7th with Jamie and Steven
- Planning session in person is still happening on Monday December 5th to do the menu tasting (the best part) and run through some final touches
- A very close family friend has offered to give us her DVC points for two nights at the Grand Floridian Villas, I am so blessed to have such lovely people in my life. I couldn't thank them enough. So we will be staying there for the night of our wedding and the day after. And I will already be on the GF property the day before our wedding because that's where we are using our free room. Princess treatment
- No dress... but I have made an appointment with my fiances aunts and my mom and sister to go to a small boutique shop on September 17th. They were so excited to ask me to go to the same boutique where they all bought their wedding dresses. I am so excited to become part of such a wonderful family.
- Almost our whole guest list is coming, and counting! This is unexpected but fantastic at the same time. We really need to start saving. All my best friends, close family, and DCP roommates and close friends are coming. It's truly a dream come true.
- Tickets for southwest to Orlando from Ohio are $69 one way for the week of our wedding, can you say PRAISE?!!! This is such fantastic news especially to the family and friends who were not sure they were going to make it.
Few questions for you former DB:
- Did you put your married name on your reservations? Were you able to change your license before you went to Disney for your wedding?
- Suggestions for hair and make up? (I'll be at the GF the night before and our wedding is a morning one)
- For those of you that had a morning wedding and then a dessert party that evening, what did you do in between?
- What suggestions do you have for getting the "special treatment" from Disney for your honeymoon, I know this might sound lame and cheap, but I just want everyone to know "I JUST GOT MARRIED" even if there are 5 million other brides there.
- What did you do with your bridesmaids/girlfriends before the wedding?
