Okay, so you’ve been introduced to my wee obsession with the turquoise polka-dot business. Here’s one more idea (harkening back to the invitation suite, even!), that i have shamelessly stolen lovingly borrowed from Mrs. Lime (from back in the day when Weddingbee wasn’t corporate and scary):
She calls it “Placecard Lasagna”!
(Thanks, Mrs. Lime! And thanks Martha [...]

Okay, i promise to move on from my obsession with invitations eventually.
…actually, we’ll be moving on right now, because my latest obsession, while definitely spawned from my invitation overload, has to do with other darling details. (“Darling” again. I’ve been overusing that word. I’ll stop, really.) Anyways, my newest possibly-impossible-but-awesome-nonetheless idea?
NAPKIN RINGS!!
Specifically, napkin rings made [...]

So, when i left you i was swooning over the awesomeness of polka dots. Specifically, white polka dots on a turquoise background. After a long, loooong fight with the Adobe suite of programs (seriously, designer people, do you have an extra Adobe gene? Not. Easy.), i managed to wrangle some polka dots of my own [...]

Since i’m not giving you a taste of our actual invitations yet (although i promise to show you pictures once they’re in the mail!), i will give you a glimpse of our save-the-dates, also designed (laboriously and with plenty of tears and swearing) in Illustrator and Photoshop. Forgive the white smears over the website, but [...]

So many ideas, i don’t even know where to start!
I guess, since this topic has consumed my life for the past week (sorry Joe!), that i’ll start with invitations. Remember way back when i debuted our awesome monogram? Here’s a refresher:
Awesome, no? Anyways, we asked the fabulous Jen of Miss Pickles Press to design this [...]

So, remember when i was all about the baby’s breath? Yeah, those were good times. Innocent times. Beautiful, fluffy, black-and-white times.
But mostly? They were white times. Which, as my mom pointed out, might not go so well with the white stage, the white backdrop, and my white dress. I fought this idea in my head [...]

So. I finally have an appointment with a possible florist tomorrow after work. I have been madly scrambling to pull together ideas of what i want the ceremony flowers to look like (and i’ll have a whole ‘nother post on that once we’ve nailed down some ideas). Flipping through magazines, scouring wedding blogs, you name [...]

And here they are! I apologize for taking forever to post these — i had a few software malfunctions along the way, plus i am the world’s biggest photo-editing idiot and couldn’t figure out how to rotate my pictures 90 degrees to show you right-side-up! Anyways, my mom sent along a few snaps she took [...]

So, after my minor technical meltdown (necessitating the purchase of a brand new MacBook yesterday, which: hello, lover!), i spent most of yesterday and this afternoon working on our wedding website.* It’s definitely not done, but i’ve at least gotten up separate pages for the hotel information, the ceremony location (complete with a couple pictures, [...]

Lately it seems like i’ve been so busy doing stuff, i don’t have a whole lot of time to write about it. I’m sorry! I do have lots of awesome wedding-related stuff in the works, and i’ve accomplished a lot on my freakout list from a couple weeks back. I’ll get to it all eventually, [...]
