So much done!

Yesterday was super productive! I went out to the suburbs and we got our cake topper and unity candle from The Wedding Etc in Downers Grove. I am super in love with the cake topper - it is so beautiful and totally unique. I had a hard time deciding if we actually wanted a cake topper but then I realized it was an important part of the cake cutting. I love that we just got a "Z"!

The unity candle is amazing. I've never seen anything like it! I'm loving that it's personalized and it's something we can keep as a great wedding memory.

After my trip to The Wedding Etc I went to Oak Brook Mall for some other errands. We got gifts for the Flower girls (which are clearly a secret!) and gifts for our friends Nick and Sarah that just had a baby! The Gap Kids is having an amazing sale right now for any Mom's out there.

Then the REALLY excited stuff started to happen! I went to Zabler Jewelers in Clarendon Hills to get our wedding bands. I'm so in love with them. As soon as I tried it on I didn't want to take it off. We had them engraved with "Be Mine 9.25.09" - "Be Mine" by David Gray is our first dance and a special song to us so we love the engraving.

After the rings it was off to my first dress fitting! (I would post pics but I know Jer will read this and we don't want him seeing the dress before the wedding.) This was by far the highlight of my day. I am so in love with my dress and when I was wearing it all I could think about was walking towards Jer and marrying the love of my life. Such a strong wave of emotion hit me and I just cannot wait for the big day to be here! We're getting so close!

34 days and counting...
