Here are a whole bunch of fun wedding things from my friend (let’s just call her “N”)…
First of all, a photo of the ludicrous invitations that Laurie on “Real Housewives of Orange County” was looking at in the last episode. Are you kidding me? It’s like a SHOEBOX full of paper!!
Second, a really cute website [...]

We got our rehearsal dinner invitations over Thanksgiving break!
Knock another thing off the to-do list. They are very nice and will look different enough from the wedding invitation, since we decided not to stick to a “theme” for all the mailings.
When my fiance, his mother, and I were looking around at invitations, I realized something:
With [...]

I’m having a problem.
Much like the inability to look away from a car crash on the side of the road, I find it impossible to stop looking at wedding dresses even though my own wedding dress is already bought and paid for.
1) Once I found and bought a wedding dress, I realized that the bridal [...]

IS THIS WHAT’S AHEAD???
I just noticed something at the local newsstand, which has two racks (upper and lower):
All the wedding magazines are on a different rack than the cool magazines.
Top rack: Vogue, Elle, Lucky, Dwell, Domino, W, In Style, Cosmo, Real Simple
The wedding magazines grace the bottom rack that has Redbook, Better Homes & Gardens, [...]

A few months ago I made a demo registry on a site called www.myregistry.com because it sounded like the coolest idea!
The service basically allows you to create a website registry for items taken from any website out there. No more “pick this store, pick that store” but rather just “pick this Tiffany vase, pick that [...]

There are three food flavors in this world that I really don’t like: mustard, fennel and eggplant (with eggplant, it’s more of a consistency thing).
We just got the proposal menu from the caterer and all three ingredients play a role in the heretofore unnamed hors d’ouvres. Fennel shows up twice!
Uh-uh – no way.

Envelopes, envelopes everywhere…but not a drop to drink.
(I’m being somewhat liberal with my poetry quotations)
This is the kind of crazy, drawn-out story about small issues that arise when you do somewhat bizarre wedding-ish things, such as save-the-date cards.
A really generous Virginia friend who is an AMAZING graphic designer has offered to whip up a save-the-date [...]

We’re getting married in a small, country ceremony next August.
You’d think that would be enough to know for the next 6 or so months… Wrong!
So far, we’ve set the date, wedding party, church, wedding dress, reception, band, caterer & rehearsal dinner!
And the wedding is over 10 months away.
A little aspect of the wedding industry that [...]

Hey all,
This new blog is VERY girly and VERY specialized in focus – If you don’t want to occasionally feel like ralphing from so much talk of wedding stuff, please avert your eyes!
That said, I’m really excited to be blogging about all the wedding stuff. Hopefully, it’ll be a good way to keep [...]
