Yesterday, Josh and I had our dinner menu tasting for the wedding. It was so much fun! We brought our good friend Caleb along too, so he could give us an unbiased opinion, and it was really helpful. We are giving choices of beef and chicken, so before our tasting we thought our choices would be prime rib and asiago chicken. We weren't able to try the prime rib because they would have had to cook an entire prime rib for just the three of us ... dang it! So instead we tried stuffed salmon and the asiago chicken, along with salads and about five different types of sides. I'm not too keen on fish, but the salmon looked amazing and both Josh and Caleb said it was really tasty. The asiago chicken - was not. I'm really glad we got to try it beforehand and know that it's not as good as it sounds. Our final choices ended up being the prime rib (even though we couldn't try it, you can't really mess up something yummy like that) and chicken piccata. For the prime rib sides we chose garlic mashed potatoes and fresh vegetables and for the chicken piccata we chose rice pilaf and vegetables. So, dolls - when you get your response card that asks beef or chicken, you'll know more in detail what to expect. :)
We also went to Men's Warehouse and got the tuxedo order set up. The guys have good taste, I must say! We ended up choosing coral vests that are a little lighter than the dresses will be, which is good, because I think it will tie everything together as far as the variations of coral colors in the flowers, dresses and tuxes ... since I'm discovering everyone has a different idea of what that color really is! Josh is wearing ivory to match my dress, and we're putting the Dad's in black on black. It's going to look so sharp, I can't WAIT to see all the important men in my life all dressed up!
I'm sending out my invitations by the end of this week (that's the goal anyway :)) so expect to see them in the mail! And RSVP of course!
Very exciting! 76 days til the big day ... not that I'm counting. ;)
