Wedding Guest Information

Lodging: We have reserved a block of rooms at the Red Lodge Comfort Inn. Their phone number is 406-446-4469. When you make your reservation let them know that you are in the Platt\Scheitle wedding group. Note that the hotel will stop holding the rooms 30 days before the wedding, so be sure to make a reservation early!

If the Comfort Inn isn't your style, there are other options.

Wedding Dress Shopping!




As my friends can attest, I shopped for a long time for a wedding dress. It was a lot of fun! Here are some pictures from trying on various dresses. I think I went to every dress shop in a tri-state area! I had fun time looking for my dress. While all of these dresses were very pretty, none of them are the dress I chose. I ended up purchasing my dress from an Alfred Angelo shop in Harrisburg. I should thank Adrienne, Susanna, Kosha, and Krystal for coming with me and being so patient!


More Wedding Planning

I recently took a trip to Wyoming to visit family over the holidays. While I was there, I also took a day trip to Red Lodge for more wedding planning. First, I met with our officiant, Rev. Munson. We are very happy he is going to be doing our ceremony. Then I went to a local hair salon and made an appointment for the morning of the wedding. My bridemaids and I will be having our hair done. That should be fun! I also ordered the flowers for wedding. I will have red roses and everyone else will have white roses. I am excited to see the flowers that day! I also met with the locations for the rehearsal dinner and the reception. Everything is all set at both locations.

Here in Pennsylvania I recently picked up my wedding dress as well! It still fits great and is just what I wanted. I have my alteration appointment in a few weeks. We also selected our wedding invitations at a stationary store in State College. There were a lot of choices! After some looking, we found a design we like.

The only other wedding detail we have completed recently was purchasing some of the smaller decorations while we were in Texas visiting Chris' family. It was fun to look the options. These details will make it the wedding ceremony and reception very pretty!
