hit the right note



So we've talked about paper cones for french fries, during cocktail hour, and these are so glam. I especially love the idea of it being made of a copies of the Polish Wedding March, which is ordinarily played at the beginning of a traditional Polish wedding reception.

Mel has also talked about designing sheets of old toy ads, or vintaged newspaper rolled up.

STD.




My STD (sh*t to do) List:

1. Ceremony- working on it. St. Mary Magdalen here we come.
2. Reception- Lake Mary Event Center.
3. Photography- Ben Sasso.
4. Catering- working on it. have a catering appointment next week with Levans.

My less important STD List:

1. Cake- tasting scheduled. two actually. but not until my momma comes to visit.
2. Music- momma wanted more options than an ipod wedding. so i'm checking djs. blah, too expensive.
3. Dress- goal one, less than 7 weeks away. Eerrr.

Jesus on Speed Dial

Most important things in a wedding?

Melvin. Check.
Me. Check.
Officiant. Errr. Working on it.

On that note, meet the church that I was baptised in. I made a call to get a certified copy of my baptismal certificate sent to the church I belong to, in order to set the ceremony date.

Too bad I accidently called the Pastor's home phone. Oops.
Thanks Pastor Dr. Roy Lewis. You're da bomb.

Trix are for Kids



My engagement ring, won't be the only rock candy at our wedding.

I'm going to attempt this DIY project for our centerpieces, to get the whole "chandelier" thang I love so much. And can you believe that the "crystals" are made from rock candy!! Just add some ribbons in coordinating wedding colors, and it can be a great alternative to having flowers on the tables.
I strongly encourage you to hike on over to once wed for some details on the hows.

not just for birthday parties, anymore.





Garlands always make me happy. Paper rings, cloth triangles, happy birthday signs.... it's all good.



And please, make sure that you don't let the wedding cake feel left out.






Welcome Back.

So I'll kick start the year off with a fantastic wedding cake topper, featuring a bunny bride and man. Now, Melvin thinks the idea of a man marrying a rabbit is absolutely unnerving. So in order to get him on board, I had to ask the etsy artisian if she could make a bunny bride and bunny groom.

"That's okay."

Well good, because I've already placed the order.
