Just call me J Lo



Well this weekend I went to Dallas to be the Wedding Coordinator for a new friends wedding! It was quite the experience! I didn't fall in love with the groom don't you worry. I did do lots of the other things JLo did though. It is crazy the amount of things that go into making sure a two day event goes smoothly. This was a pretty big wedding! We had the rehearsal dinner in Deep Elum at this mexican place, the wedding at the Perkins Chapel on SMU campus and then the reception at a ballroom in downtown Dallas. It was all beautiful and went perfectly. I learned so much about what types of communication goes on between the various wedding venues (dj, photographer, caterers, ballroom director, and chaplain)I was incharge of all of that which was quite overwhelming at first! It went over great and lots of people were surprised that it was my first wedding so that was very encouraging! I definitely can see myself doing that as a profession eventually so that's exciting!

The weekend was also great because I got to spend some good time with Brent, Linds, Linds B, Cody and Emily which was just great!I'm glad to be back in Austin ...Oh I got another part time job working at Bath and Body Works in the Aboretum! I'm so excited I think it will be fun!! It's such a cheerful happy place...I think I will like it there!

I am so glad that your first wedding went well! I can imagine that it was a lot of detail and hard work, but if anyone can pull it off it is you!
Congrats on the new job. I think it fits you perfectly!
