Long Time


It's definitely been a while since I've taken the time to post. Yes, the time has been taken, not had.

With school and work and wedding planning there hasn't been much time for posting, but I wanted to update this since the save the dates are going out soon.

Things that have been completed since I last posted:

1. Michael came to visit and he and I created the save the dates with envelopes printed on the computer. They still need postage and addresses but they will be arriving in a mailbox of yours soon. (And may have already if you're just discovering this blog)

2. We met with 2 florists and I believe we have chosen one, though we are still finalizing a few things. Tierra Floral Design

3. Invitations have been finalized, now working on the RSVP. The Parrott Design Studio is hard at work.

4. Made decisions on a final guest count. (Finally! Hooray!)

5. Went to yet another Bridal expo, this time in Baltimore and won a bouquet, (just at the expo, not for the wedding.) Also won $100 off a video package (though overpriced - we're not using them) it did come with 3 dvds! Wedding Crashers - Uncorked! (I absolutely LOVE that movie! and didn't own it already,) The Wedding Planner and My Best Friend's Wedding. Nice, chick flicks for the whole family. Or just me for doing computer homework in the living room.

Still so much to do! Right now we're focusing on getting the florals finalized, then on to linens! Hooray!

Plus Mom's coming this weekend so hopefully that will go well. There is tons of cleaning to be done before she gets here.

Better get back to homework now. Hopefully I can post some more as decisions are made.

Ciao!

I can't wait to stop and smell the florals


I can't wait for spring! It's been so cold here in Maryland this week and it's making me miss the grass between my toes. I've been scoping out wedding florals to add to the Orchids, since Orchids can be a bank breaker and otherwise I only knew I wanted Calla Lilies.

 Here are some of the other lovely flowers I've come up with.


Viburnum Opulus


Syringa Vulgaris


Stephanotis


Peony


Sweet Peas
 

Hydrangeas


Hyacinths

Grape Hyacinths


Gentiana Vernana


Gardenias


Dahlia Karma
