Wow, so Pete and I picked our wedding day…not arbitrarily…but, well we didn’t put a HUGE amount of thought into it. I mean, June is the COOLEST month of the year (says the June baby engaged to another June baby) and everything; so, that definitely played a part…

But then, today, while listening to my nerd radio, I mean NPR, I got cosmic assurance as to the greatness of our upcoming wedding day. In a short interview on “Day to Day,” Cliff Arnall, a British psychologist, claimed that today, January 22, is the most depressing day of the year. But, and here’s where it really gets interesting, we should fear not because the happiest day of the year, according to his calculations, is just around the corner–That’s right! You guessed it! The happiest day of the year is going to be June 22!!
It was definitely going to be the happiest day in our lives…but now it can be the happiest day in yours too!

We’ve got about 6 months to get everything ready for the wedding. 6 months either seems like a really long time, or no time at all.

A good number of things are already taken care of (thanks to Dana!) like the Save the Dates and the invitations, but we still have a lot to finalize. The guest list is a never-ending issue. We’d love to invite everyone we know, but as the list grows, so does the cost of the catering, which pushes the limit of our budget. Plus, we’re simple people, and an intimate affair is more appropriate for us than a huge overcrowded event.
