The invitations are finally finished. My next task is to fill in the reception, ceremony and rsvp details on a little insert, print them out at the library and then mail off the cards, hopefully by friday.
And...I finally found the perfect ring (insert silly grin here). We must have looked in five or six jewelery stores in the mall last friday, went to a couple big ones on saturday and found nothing. Today on my lunch break I went to one of the stores we had been in on Friday - I spoke to the same lady we talked to on friday (she was the most helpful out of all the stores we went to) and she showed me a couple other rings. Just when I was about to give up, she had the idea to take a look at the rings that come in pairs already, since they could order just one of the set. The first one of those I picked up was perfect. It doesn't come up too high, the band isn't too wide, it has a single stone in the middle with a couple little tiny ones to each side. And I can get it with a blue diamond.
I had originally wanted a coloured stone instead of a diamond (I was thinking sapphires or even garnet, since those are two of my favourite colours/stones) but since we were looking at blue stones, Jon happened to ask if there is such a thing as a blue diamond. And I have to say, I had no idea a stone could come in teal. They're my favourite colour! I've added a picture so you can see the colour.
Next up: caterer (Jon's supposed to call tomorrow), finalizing hall rental plans with Jon's mom, and meeting our commissioner next Thursday.
