I will have the Wedding Day Montage up later this week. We will not have our video for several more weeks, but in the mean time my videographer sliced a few things together and put it on his website. Click on this link and the first 20 seconds is from our day... a little preview :)

Tim's honeymoon surprise

I planned the honeymoon surprise...the only "requirements" Holly-Rae gave me were that it needed to be warm, outside the US, somewhere we've never been, and between a week and two weeks. Not too specific :) Only two people knew...the travel agent and me.

I wasn't planning to tell her the final destination of where we were going until we boarded the last flight and I had to tell her... but the gate agent in Chicago slipped and said "St. Thomas is considered a US destination so you can get in that line". So we spent an awesome week in St. Thomas in a little villa on the beach. I think we slept the first 24 hours! We traveled to other US and British Virgin Islands, including Virgin Gorda, Jost Van Dyke, St. John, and Tortola. From there we flew to San Juan, Puerto Rico where we spent our second week. We were at a larger resort in San Juan and took a great day trip to a private island called to Palamino Island, which was gorgeous.

We had great weather and great food. It was an awesome trip and just what we needed - some time to get away and be with each other.

I'm sure my wife will be sharing pictures soon...

December 6th - it was perfect!!!

We had a perfect day on the 6th...  Wedding Day Montage coming soon!!!  

The Bachelorette!


I had a fun night with the girls celebrating my upcoming nuptials and my last few days of the single life ;)   

The Party started out at Tara's house, then we went to Red Fire Grill for an awesome dinner, great drinks, and lots of laughs.  My girlfriends spoiled me and provided many things for the honeymoon :)  

Ash and Tara previously videotaped Tim answering some questions they came up with.  They tested me to see if I would respond the same way.   I think the biggest stumper was "At what dollar amount when Holly-Rae is shopping or making a purchase, would you want her to discuss it with you and "ask"?  Tim said $1000.   My response: ASK for PERMISSION???  WHAT?!??!?  :)  Just kidding...  I said $300.  WOW!  So of course now I want to know if that is  $1000 per item, per day, or what?!?! 

Each girlfriend also brought a pair of panties that represented THEM... I had to guess who they came from.  Slow starting, but once I figured a couple out it made it easier.  The funniest may have been the tiny thong...and my girlfriend said "My husband says I'm uptight...so these go UP and they are TIGHT - that's how they represent me".   HA HA :)  

It was a fab night with the girls - that's all I can tell you... the rest is on the DL.  What happens in Bloomington stays in Bloomington :)
