We're very happy to announce that our wedding invitations are being sent out! We had a difficult time trimming down the list, so we're sorry in advance for those we missed. Amanda's side of the family is much larger and more local, while my side is smaller and spread out across the country. I'm also gratified to announce that a large majority of the people invited on my side have already confirmed and locked in their travel plans to attend the wedding. For my side, it will be just as much a family reunion. With the cost of traveling and taking time off work, I'm glad to have this time to see everyone I don't see very often. We think that most of Amanda's side will come too. We're prepared for up to 180 people.

Immediately following the wedding ceremony and church photos, Amanda and I are hosting the 4 hour dinner reception. Some of us are actually traveling directly over to Disney World that night, so we don't expect to run the reception too late. The reception will include an elegant buffet style dinner, complimentary beer and wine, a world class musician & DJ from Orlando, and as much Disney magic we can add. That's all we're going to say for now. We'll save some of the surprises for later!
