Uber Quick Updates!

Only 185 Days left! :)

Here are a few really quick updates.

Saturday was our appointment for our Wedding Invitations...And it went really well. She is going to make up a couple of designs for us to chose from.


Then on Sunday we met with the Priest. We were so comfortable with him that we decided on having a mass. We were originally just going to have a non-mass ceremony...And I am actually very very excited about our special wedding ceremony and mass!


Last night we met with a different florist...And I am absolutely in love with this man! He is just so fabulous!
And he gave us a good enough price that we can actually afford to have flowers in our centerpieces! So we no longer have to go with the flower-less centerpieces.
I am sooooo excited for this florist!

Now I think that we have every vendor we need booked!! OMG!

The only thing left to book is our Hawaii Honeymoon!! :)


I am finally way more excited than stressed for this wedding now!

Once we have our honeymoon situated and booked, there really won't even be too much to worry about or do for a couple of weeks at least.


The biggest things I still need to decide on:
  • What linens I want
  • Escort cards and escort card holders
  • More Favors in addition to the photo booth favors
  • Location of the Rehearsal Dinner

Then there are just little decisions like what songs to play during the reception...What readings to have during the ceremony...Etc.


Either way, I think I get to start relaxing a bit now...And then I'll stress again as the wedding gets closer.

All I know is that I am soooo uber excited!!

Only 6 Months & 4 More Days left to go!! :)

Escort Card Holders & Table Linens

Remember my love for the Blume Bud Escort Card Holders?

I found some more pictures of other brides using them...And it makes me love them even more!


They are so elegant and classy, right?

I just haven't totally decided what kind of flower (or lucky bamboo) I would put in each vase.


Of course the down side is, I don't know how many times they can be re-used. Like say, a mini picture frame holding the escort card can then be used again to hold a picture.

Especially since I am in love with the photo booth idea again.
I had talked myself out of it for a while...But am loving it again. (Especially since they have had them at 2 of the bridal shows I have been to...And now I'm in love with them again!)



On another note...I have made a mock-up of how I am pretty sure I want my table linens to look:

I didn't really draw the chair covers in...But white chairs kind of gives you the illusion of white chair covers.
With fuchsia chair sashes and bows.
And a black table cloth with white napkins.
And the black and white damask table runner outlined in fuchsia.
And then of course some kind of centerpiece that incorporates fuchsia.

I think I did well not making the hot pink the sole color.

I didn't even use shades of pink like I could have.
I am totally trying to go more sophisticated and elegant than sweet 16.
Hence why my original thought of hot pink napkins have been replaced with white napkins.


PS Try not to mock my mock-up! I made it in about 5 seconds in Paint! :-P
