Invitations

 I started to practice making invitations and I found one that I like.  Thanks to Katie, Kristen, and Brina for ideas and help I've come up with these...(ALSO a major thanks to Elise, Brina, Katie, and Kristen for helping me finish my save the dates!)

The back of the envelope is sealed with a wax seal with a W imprint (I'm hyphenating so my new last name will have the W :D). When you break it and open it up.....






...the invitation looks like this on the inside.  It will have an RSVP card and an information card with directions and our blog info.  They turned out so pretty!!

Cake Ideas

Navy blue for the pearl drops. Instead of drops around the bottom, a thick silver ribbon that will peek-a-boo out from a thinner royal blue ribbon. I'm  pretty sure this is the one I want but then I saw the one below...

Put a brushed silver on the draping-which costs a little more (my biggest hold back). The flowers would be white roses with some blue belladonna to match the bouquets.

Bridesmaid dresses

 First jr bridesmaids dress, pretty but not the one!

 First Bridesmaid dress try on. Very cute but not quite the favorite

 2nd jr bridesmaid dress-she HATED it lol.

 Another really cute one for both but still not the one!

 Trying on the color to see how it looks. Pretty huh?!

 This is Katies Bridesmaid dress. We'll be adding straps an of course it'll be in that royal blue color above. She looks so pretty!!!!!

 They both decided on the same dress. They didn't have to match but they both really like this one and I love it. Its perfect summery dress and the style is HOT on both of them :)!

Elise thought this dress would be fun and shes right! Katie had a similar one on and hated it, the rest of us thought it was super cute...guess that means we're old lol!!

A little behind

There comes a point in every wedding where a bride feels a little behind.  I'm pretty early on in my planning so being behind isn't horrific or anything.  I was supposed to send my save the dates out at the beginning of this month but they aren't finished yet.  Whoops!

The good news is even though I am a little behind there I am ahead on getting quotes for my flowers and soon to be the cake.  Only thing left is the dresses really and a DJ.  I feel like I've got an ok handle on it.  Does that make me completely disillusioned? Most likely :).
