Yesterday evening, my sister and I drove an hour to the airport. We stopped at our favorite sushi place for dinner, where she scolded me for drinking root beer with my sushi. Then, we got on a plane and flew home to spend the Easter holiday with our family. Before jumping on the jetplane, we [...]

Well, there’s nothing like entering addresses into an Excel Spreadsheet to spice up a stormy Sunday night. I love planning my wedding. Take that back, I love planning things, from birthday parties, to showers, to fundraisers. It’s so fun to make a vision come to life. The past few weeks of wedding planning, however, have [...]
Flower Girl (update) and the Bearer of Rings
Posted in DIY, Fashion, Wedding, tagged Details, Fashion, Floral on April 1, 2009 | 2 Comments »
At the last wedding I was at, my aunt leaned over to me and said, “Don’t have kids in your wedding! They steal all of the attention!” as the adorable ring-bearers were walking down the aisle (one with a pacifier). My response? “Only if they do their job right!” I’m so excited for my adorable [...]

OK. I need to know– should I buy a Gocco? I’ve found one– the PG-5 model, which is what I had been researching– with LOTS of ink and in the right price range. So– to buy, or not to buy? Was it useful to you? Did you find you used it as much as you [...]

I’ve been thinking a lot about Church flowers. Initially, I’d wanted fresh flowers on all the pews. Let me refresh your memory of what our church looks like: So… I counted at one point. But I’ve forgotten. All I know is that’s a long-ass aisle, with an exorbitant number of pews. It seats 750! You [...]
My mother bought her dress! I’m so excited about it, I just had to show off my hot mama! This is my mom, my sister (Rachel, Maid of Honor) and I at my cousin Melissa’s bridal shower last month. She’s so pretty! The dress that she picked is by Cameron Blake, an affiliate of Mori [...]

Well, I’ve posted on Bridesmaids dresses, the reception and the ceremony locations. I’ve not posted about my dress, for it will remain a lock-stock-and-barrel secret until my wedding day. However, here’s what I’ve been thinking about floral design. My florist, Janene of In Full Bloom, specializes in “intensely personal flowers.” She’s so great to work [...]
Location, location! (part two)

Even more than the Merion for our reception, I am absolutely in love with the Church that we’re having our ceremony in. B and I attend a small church in the city, whose permanent building– a loft– would not fit all of our guests, nor does it quite fit the bill for our rather formal [...]
Calligraphy

Since invitations have been on my mind lately, I’ve also been working on calligraphy. We decided to send out Save the Dates only for the out-of-towners who will need the hotel information. Since there was only 20-or-so of those that needed to be calligraphed, I decided to try my hand at it! While not perfect, [...]
Paper Trail

Well, it’s been far too long since I’ve updated this blog. I’m a pretty sorry bride-blogger, that’s for sure. Words are very important to me, so when choosing the paper elements of our wedding, I wanted to make sure that the aesthetics also represented who we are as a couple along with the wording. It’s [...]
