235 dtg!!!!

• Calculated the items/prices for the decor needed. Turns out my mom's allotted budget will mainly go towards all the rentals. Casey and I will be handling the rest, with a little help here and there I'm sure.
• Bought the votive candles and holders online today.....pretty good when it comes out to .66 cents for each holder/candle combo.
• Actually and FINALLY found some reasonable hanging votive holders online for only $2 each. All the ones I have seen are $3-5 each and just too ornate.
  
• Was about to buy one of the string lights on eBay (just to try out and see if they were the right size) when I realized that they are located in San Jose! They are a Japanese/Chinese dollar store located on Deanza. So I can just toodle on down over there and take a look. If I end up buying them, I'll save on shipping! Whoo hoo!
• Researched on larger chinese lanterns that may be hung inside over the dance floor. Still not sure if that is actually what we are going to do, but just in the beginning stages of thinking how to dress up the ceiling inside the reception.
• Casey actually came up with a really cute/clever idea for a reception detail that ties in with our favorite things! I was so proud. :) We'll see what comes of that surprise.
