Sneak Peak! June 30, 2009

I fell in love with my wedding invitation long before I fell in love with the man I’ll soon marry…. When I got engaged, I didn’t immediatly know what kind of dress I would wear,  I still can’t decide about flowers but I have always had a clear vision of  how my wedding invitation would look. While [...]

Something Blue… June 26, 2009

In just one week from today I have my first wedding dress fitting. In just three months from today I will be wearing my dress!   No one will see this sweet monogram that will be sewn inside, so I am showing it to you now.  My initials, my wedding date, my Something Blue…I love it so much.  I [...]

Showered With Love! June 21, 2009

I had THE MOST fun at my very first bridal shower this Saturday. My bridesmaids, Carrie and Shannon, hosted and nearly all of my best DC friends came with such fun gifts!!! It was really all I could have hoped for and more – the girls had napkins printed with my monogram, decorated Carrie’s sassy [...]

Pick Me (and Julia!) Eddie! April 22, 2009

I have a mother and a fiance who are going to say WHAT? when they find out that the Saturday before the wedding  I’ve RSVPed to go shopping with Eddie Ross at the DC Big Flea.  The timing  is not perfect, but Eddie’s style is, and I think it a bigger risk to not spend the [...]

Wedding Map April 15, 2009

I know I should wait…but the proof is back from the map of our wedding, designed by Laura Hooper Caligraphy, and I just had to share. Depending on printing and timing, you may see this map on Save the Dates, but you will for sure see it on the wedding web page should I EVER feel it’s ready [...]

Last one… April 7, 2009

I want to sit a mimosa on top of this napkin right now. All I can say is Bridesmaids’ Brunch, Wedding Day Breakfast. Cute. CUTE. C-U-T-E!!!

Wedding Details… February 13, 2009

I must admit, it’s hard for me to not share everything Dan and I have planned for the wedding. What fun would that be if you knew everything to expect??  The voyer in me loves reading wedding blogs where brides reveal all their fun surprises, but the event planner in me knows I have to leave [...]

Custom Monogram January 13, 2009

I want to give a zillion plaudits to SwishDesigns, a California-based design company I found on The Bona Fide Preppy Bride blog  that for a mere $7 created a monogram for me to use throughout the wedding.  I wanted something very traditional, but custom designs are less than $20!  Donna, the designer, is AMAZING!  She [...]

Awkward Silence January 13, 2009

I haven’t blogged in forever – nearly a month! I have no real excuse, but several empty ones: The busy holiday season – 8 days in TN and I leave this weekend for Christmas Part 2 in Virginia Beach  A misplaced camera – it must be around here somewhere, especially since I’m becoming Organized in ’09 I [...]
