Things Accomplished

After his earlier moment of ... er ... clarity, the Groom feels it best to lay out some of the list items he has actually done.

Tuxes for the Groom, Groomsmen, and Ushers have been ordered. "The Tux Shop", with handy locations at Tacoma Mall and downtown Seattle, wants the various folks involved to get their measurements done before December 1. The tux includes shirt, cravat (or tie for the Ushers), and shoes - but not spats.

The Groom's tux is gratis, the Groomsmen will have to pony up $122 each, and the Ushers' ensemble will set them (or in the case of Victoria, me) back $119.

Seejay is 100% behind having the rehearsal dinner at Gateway to India. He promised the moon, the sun, and the stars, though not necessarily in that order.

We spoke with Fr. Bryan about the liturgy, and he gave some really useful pointers. A call is in to Bob McKamey at the parish to schedule a meeting about the music.

And Fr. Bryan's head was measured for the Biretta, which will be ordered in August.

Looks like the Groom has crossed everything off his 6+ month list. On to the next list...

Edited to add: The Bride and Groom will be meeting with Mr McKamey on Tuesday, August 14th at 7:00PM at St. Patrick Church.
