Hi Guys- so apparently there's been a slight issue at the hotel. They have the rooms held and at the same discounted price, but apparently when some people have called in and asked for the Yuhl/Patten wedding, they can't find the name :(
Here is a confirmation number that will automatically pull up the reservation: # 3475051617
They are working to fix the problem and get our names back in the system. Please let us know if you have any issues getting a room! We have the General Manager working on this now :)

Wedding Attire and Other Info
WOW... only 40 days to go!!!! We've received many of the RSVP's back...still waiting on a few. WHAT a crowd this is going to be!!!
Some people have been asking us for information about certain wedding details, so we figured we'd update the blog and post it on here.
WEDDING ATTIRE: Semi-Formal. Here is a website with the "guidelines" for what to wear.
http://www.marthastewartweddings.com/228438/wedding-guest-attire/@center/272440/wedding-etiquette-adviser#/161033
We're not worried about if you're wearing specifically a "white" shirt... feel free to add a little flare and personal style! No jeans, shorts and flaps ;) Pretty much slacks and a tie for a guy, you can certainly bring a jacket or wear one! And for the ladies...I know you all know how to dress to the nine! :) We know we're easing going and casual, but we can't wait to see everyone spruced up for the big day!
HOTELS:We've received some feedback for those of you who want a hotel room where we have a group room rate. Just in case you didn't get that information before, here it is again:
The Del Mar Hilton, for $175 per night. Book it under the Yuhl/Patten Wedding to receive the discount. Here's the address, it's about 6 minutes from the venue!

Accommodations and other Info
Invitations are in the mail!!!! We only had about 3 Save The Date's come back to us, so hopefully everyone receives theirs soon!
We sent out an email to a few people, but just in case we didn't email you.... Here is information for hotel accommodations:
We got a group room discount for the Del Mar Hilton at a rate of $175 per night. It is booked under the Yuhl/Patten wedding, and if you need to book it you can contact them or us and we can do it for you as well. Any cancellations or modifications can be made until September 15th :)
Del Mar Hilton
15575 Jimmy Durante Blvd
Del Mar, CA 92014
858-792-5200
Here's their website for directions, pictures, info, etc
The hotel is about 6 miles from the venue Rancho Valencia, and it is also located right off of the 5 freeway.
* There are some other hotels in Del Mar and Solana Beach, which would be the closest city to the venue, however they didn't have the best room rates or options... Del Mar Hilton was the best one. Feel Free to book anywhere though!*
Our registry information is also inside the invitation, but just in case anyone loses it or didn't receive one (oops sorry!) here is the website:
You go to the "Search for a Couple" and you can enter either of our names....
WOW! It's getting close! T Minus 2 months to go!!!!!!

3 months left!!!
We have been so busy getting things checked off the to-do list! We hate to neglect the blog- we know you are all getting just as excited as we are as the countdown to W-Day gets closer :)
Bridesmaid Dresses, Tuxes, Invitations, WEDDING BANDS and we are finalizing our honeymoon wedding registry!!!
TheKnot.com has been unbelievably helpful, as well as Etsy.com and Pinterest-yes pinterest! Who knew so many people have their entire weddings down to the smallest details already planned out?! Perfect for ideas and inspiration.
Also, Paper Source in Carlsbad was our obvious choice when we were picking out our invitations. To be honest, neither of us are very craftsy, but the people at Paper Source were SO helpful! We wanted to be hands-on with our invitations and add personal touches-it was overwhelming looking at book after book with hundreds of choices. They literally sat down with us, got to know who we were as a couple and helped us to narrow down options. EVERYTHING is customizable-it is seriously a great place and we HIGHLY recommend if you're in need for any sort of invitation or announcement. We are so happy with the outcome and are actually having fun assembling them-the wine helps :)

T-minus 90 days people...almost time to dust off those dancing shoes! Til the next update...

UPDATE!!!
Finally, an update! We've been busy checking things off the to-do list. Here's what we've got so far:
DJ BOOKED! we ended up booking Tim from TA Productions after seeing a few different dj's and our photographer HIGHLY recommended Tim. We got together and his style and music was on point for what we wanted. Thank God because there were some interesting DJ's out there. Sorry people, no Macarena or Chicken Dance for you...
http://www.taproductions.com/
Speaking of photographer... we hired one!!! True Photography was by far the only choice for us. The minute we met with Aaron the owner, we KNEW this was the right company to work with. The other photographers couldn't even compare. They do amazing work and capture those moments that are irreplaceable. We can't wait to work with them when we take our Engagement pictures in May! Check out their site, they are amazing!!!

FLOWERS!!! We put the deposit down for our flowers TODAY. After looking at lots of options and great recommendations, we decided to book our first choice of Flowers by Coley. Flowers can be very picky and opinionated, but luckily Jenna was great and completely got our vision and style for the wedding.
We will try to keep updating the blog more often as things come!!! We're at the 6 month mark people!!! Crazy. Thank you everyone for your support, recommendations and ideas. It's almost time to dust off the dancing shoes! More details to come :)

Who's got Cake??
So one more thing crossed off the list. Today we went to Flour Power and had a really great experience with the owner James-the cake was AMAZING, we can't wait. If anyone needs any cakes for any reason these guys are best. Right next to La Jolla Shores Market.

This is the inspiration picture for our wedding cake...we gotta keep the real deal a surprise.

A Venue has been picked!
Finally! Deciding on a wedding venue was by far the hardest part of the "wedding planning" process this far. If everything is easier than this from here on out, it'll be a piece of cake. Pun intended ;)
Rancho Valencia in Rancho Santa Fe, California
http://www.ranchovalencia.com/
Just found out Rancho Valencia was just named the 7th Best Resort Hotel in the US
