Ocean City and wedding plans...

Well my fiancée Lorraine and I got back from vacation almost two weeks ago and I am just now getting back into the work flow of things. It seems so far away already, the wonderful week spent with her family at a beach house on the shore of Ocean City, NJ. The Northeast was experiencing a heatwave but coming from Atlanta we weren't fazed by the heat. We went to the beach every morning and I for one was very sad to leave. We then went back to Lorraine's hometown of Philadelphia and had a few interviews lined up for our upcoming wedding. It's difficult planning a wedding in a city you don't live in. We have to make every visit count. But I think we're ahead of schedule and that's a wonderful thing. Church check, reception hall check, we're on a roll. As the groom, I know the wedding is about her. I know that. But what I am learning is that there is always one thing the groom must have his way, no matter how obscure and miniscule. For some it's wearing a certain type of tux or for others it's having a certain type of music played at the reception. For me it's all about the wedding favors. I want to give out personalized bobbleheads of ourselves. Talk about original!I know I know, it's a tad bit pretentious but I'm serious. I'm putting my foot down & I won't take no for an answer.
