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!

Things Are Better With A Parrott

This week has been full of wording. Finalizing that is. We're trying to get our wording for the invitations, and rsvp cards over to Sarah, our wonderful stationary Designer. 

Her work is featured on Etsy and can be found on her site Parrott Design Studio
It is beautiful, and that may be an understatement. As it's all handmade! The details are really what blow you away.

I am so in awe of how she makes the intricate designs and will have to check it out next time I make it to Rhode Island!

Sarah also displays some work on a blog called deSiGNalogue which features she and her future sister-in-law, one of my maids of honor Deb, who is an artist as well!
