December plans

I know it's a good year away, but when purchasing plane tickets a lot of warning is a good thing. There was a discussion through comments on the sisters blog about when/where the wedding will take place. Aaron and I have decided to get married in Portland, sometime at the end of December. (His parents don't know this yet, so that'll be a fun discussion.) There was talk of a Palmer Christmas reunion at some point, so will this be the time? Or do we all gather at the same time as the Beers reunion this summer? Mom said we should do it at Christmas, but I guess everyone should have a vote on that. As for the actual date of the wedding, we're still not sure. Aaron isn't done with school until the week before Christmas, and I'd rather be with the family for Christmas Eve/morning, so the soonest would be the 26th, or the following week on the 29th or 30th. Then we would head north to Canada for a reception before getting to Idaho in time for school to start (this year it started on the seventh).

Along the same lines, if anyone finds inexpensive Christmas decorations (since it is after Christmas now), and wouldn't mind picking them up for the wedding, that would be great. Our colors will be white, silver and blue - a true blue, light or dark, but not teal or aqua. Ribbon, garland, oranaments, lights, whatever. Just something to keep our eyes open for, since it all should be on sale.
