Ring bearer Pillow


A paper peony as the ring bearer pillow!
I may have to splurge.

This lovely and amazingly handcrafted delight is from www.paperbloomsters.com

If I had enough time (and talent) I'd be making every single flower!

Invitation Creations

The "invitation warehouse" over here is heating up!

After many hours spent with my dear friend photoshop, things are finally getting printed! Well, after several paper jams later.

If my calculations are correct, we are embarking upon printing 600 items, cutting 600 sides, stamping 200 envelopes, rounding and embossing 1600 corners.

Pass me another diet coke!

I <3 Peonies


I mean these just HAVE to be the ideal flower all around. Stunning, classic, lovely and all around gorgeous.

And all around the most expensive pick!

I'm desperately hunting for an affordable alternative.

Apologies for being so lack with the blog these days. The past few weeks have been complete insanity with the move! Well 10 gallons of paint later things are almost in place. A bit more organizing to be had, but back on the wedding wagon I go!

99 days and counting....
yikes!

Soo Sad...



Well it sure has been awhile! Sorry for the much delayed post. Things have been hectic migrating down south. Along with the migration I have some sad, sad news. I hadn't had any time (or internet access for that matter) to do any much needed wedding shopping.

Well my friends, I lost. I lost THE shoes I was in love with. THE shoes I designed things around. I hate to report, they went on final sale (no returns or exchanges) and the only size left were 2 too small or 2 too large :-(

Isn't that the WORST?!!!

Oh h-e-double L

All fingers crossed there is a better pair to show up!

I will post more, I PROMISE, as soon as the boxes get more unpacked (haven't even arrived yet, that's tomorrow) and keep you up to date with things.

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and New Year's!

Fresh posts to come soon.

Until then eat lots of cookies and have a wonderful holiday!

Another timeless photo

Mr. Jagger



Great photo.

Inspiration for Groom Look

Sexy. That's all I have to say.



Classic. Clean. Sexy. Manly. Timeless.
User friendly and can be worn again.


I love it.

My Inspiration Dress

Taa- Daa!



Of course this dress would be nothing less than a designer gown by Monique L'huillier. Which translates to roughly $5,000. I was lucky enough to find it for $2,500 on a previously-owned wedding dress site. However, that was still not in my budget or moral code. I mean, if I had the dough no doubt I would spend it. However for one night? One night and never wear it again?!

But alas, this was my inspirational starting point. I have to say my dress isn't too far off! And for a fraction of the price.
