Honeymoon Registry!

Erin and Kevin have set up a honeymoon registry. You can go to the link below and pick if you would like to help them get to the Dominican Republic, stay at the Punta Cana Dreams Resort, go on a snorkeling trip or help pay for drinks! Here is the link - it is a pretty cool idea for a gift!

Hotel Information

Drury Inn St. Peters(636) 397-9700

We have blocked off several rooms for the nights of May 29th and May 30th. Anyone needing a hotel room should call the Drury Inn St. Peters number listed above and let them know they are part of the Thurston-Cherry wedding.

The Drury Inn is off of hwy 70 at the Mid Rivers Mall Drive exit and is relatively close to the reception sight. It is not within walking distance but there are no hotels w/in walking distance.

Dress Shopping

On Saturday I got together with all of my bridesmaids at the dress shop. Everyone finally agreed on the same dress. Of course they are all going to be different colors. Sunshine yellow, lime green, turquoise, and fuschia! Very colorful!

It only took about 20 min for everyone to pick a dress. Of course I had picked out 4 for them to choose from.
Afterwards we went out to eat and have drinks. They put us in our own little room. They must have thought we were a rowdy crowd!

Engagement Pictures!

Check out our new engagement pictures on the right side of the site. They turned out great!

Centerpieces

My mom, Jen, Ollie, and I all went to Garden Ridge, Deals, and Olde Tyme Pottery. Well, most of the wedding plans are finished already. The centerpieces, however, are still in progress! We have some great ideas for centerpieces, but we are waiting for the sales!!! Now, all that is left to do is the invitations, flowers and pick some engagement photos! How fun!!

Invitations!

Well today, Mom, Jen, and I went out in search of invitation paper. We went to the Polka dot Paper Co, Hobby Lobby, Office Depot and Target.
I have very specific idea of what I want the invitations to look like and of course I want them to be colorful.

After looking at the invitation kits I realized that I am going to have to custom make my own invitations! Wait until you see them - I have a colorful idea in mind!

Dresses!

Saturday, June 14, 2008 - Today Mom, Jen, Paula (Kevin's Mom) and I went to try on wedding dresses and look for the bridesmaid dresses. Our first stop was Elite Bride's House in St. Peters. First thing we were told was we could not take pictures in the store because we could not steal dress ideas. Jen had mentioned that Mom was making my dress. We really were not impressed with their service but I did try on some dresses and think I have decided on a straight across tube top for my dress!
Our second stop was Wedding Gallery in St. Charles. The ladies in there were a lot nicer and helped us to pick out the bridesmaids dresses. I still have to decide which color will go on which girl but I have selected a style of dress and picked out the colors - lime, fuschia, yellow, and turquoise! It is going to be very colorful - just wait and see! Sorry we do not have better pics but as I said earlier we could not take pics in the stores. Oh well!
