IT'S OFFICIAL I'M ENGAGED. And I don't have to feel so pathetic with my blog updates now :) I cant seem to focus on anything I need to because I am so OCD about wedding plans. dresses, decorations, food, clothes, favors. It's ridiculous.

New favorite blog for ideas on life and everything fun in general: http://jordanferney.blogspot.com/ i seriously spent an hour on here today and got lots of fun ideas including:

Soda Bar



Yes, I am in love with this idea for fun, colorful, beverages that reinforce a "vintage" feel!

Scratch every other flower idea. TULIPS are my favorite. So tulips i shall have :O)

Hair/veil

I'm obsessed. But it's okay. Here is a veil I adore from Etsy.





Hair/Makeup (unless I decide on an updo, and since my braids got vetoed):

okay okay

So it's final. I ordered my first love. The Edwardian wedding dress(see below). Who cares if it's not very traditional, I like the old-fashioned feel and I absolutely love the dress. Just crossing my fingers it fits! (online shopping=scary). I put down a deposit on a venue too! EEeeeee... well, that place is like a fairytale. I'm really excited about it. Save the date: May 13th! Here are some photos-- but really, none of them do it justice.











Alex & I also met with a photographer over the weekend. Brittany Cascio. She seemed super upbeat and quirky and fun, and took us out to Casper's for ice-cream. We both agree that she's our girl! You can see some of her work here:

So things are coming together. And everyday I feel more in love & beyond happy to have Alex in my life!

change of plans

Okay so the pinwheel in the middle is kind of representation of the colors/tones I'm looking at. And the teal with the flower above. Thinking that teal and peach will be central colors. The rest are all just fun ideas I like. If you click on them, they enlarge. ALSO, pay attention to the fun candy bar. I looove that idea.




No Shan, it won't look like a Bahamas beach cruise. I want muted, dusty shades of the colors.
