Rings are in the mail!

by DC Bloggette April 12, 2010

Well, Karl’s rings are, mine I haven’t yet decided on.
At first, Karl also wanted platinum, but he wanted something shiny.  I explained to him that platinum ring scratches easily and eventually it will be matte.  He then started considering Tungsten rings, which yay for me, it’s a LOT cheaper than platinum ones (so I’m saving [...]

Doubts

by DC Bloggette April 9, 2010

I was told this was going to happen.  I was warned about it.  But I can’t shake off the doubts…
Remember how excited I was because I found THE dress?  And I knew exactly what veil to get, so much so that I purchased the veil on Etsy the next day.
But then…  I kept on reading [...]

Be our guest!

by LA Bloggette April 7, 2010

So a while back my mom had given me a guest book to use at the wedding. It was your standard guest book with slots to write your name in and what not and I said sure, I’d use it. But then, then I saw the most amazing guest book ever and I absolutely HAD [...]

Colors!

by DC Bloggette April 7, 2010

I knew I wanted a red bouquet (I will be [...]

Saturday Karl and I made our way into DC, at 7am, to take our engagement pictures, with my friend Nikki, who is starting to dab into professional photography.  (Are you in the DC area?  Her facebook fan page is here, and her website — which she doesn’t update as frequently, is here.)

Destination Wedding Bridesmaid Dresses

by Chicago Bloggette April 2, 2010

Now that our wedding is in Mexico, a lot of my planning is taken care of. This left me plenty of time to research bridesmaids dresses (I decided to purchase the dresses for the girls to help keep costs down since they’re traveling). I’m really picky—I didn’t want the “typical” bridesmaids dresses (read: no taffeta). [...]

Videographer

by DC Bloggette March 29, 2010

When I first started planning my wedding, the first thing I told my parents was “I don’t need a videographer!  I’m never going to look at the video again!”
The more I read wedding blogs and message boards, the more I saw people emphasizing the importance of a videographer — they say your wedding day is [...]

Simple, Reusable Centerpieces Inspired by IKEA

by Chicago Bloggette March 26, 2010

Most couples don’t have to worry about what to do with all of their centerpieces and decorations until after the wedding. Since our wedding was relocated from Chicago to Mexico, our situation was a bit different. Luckily, the centerpieces we had planned out were all made from pieces that could fit nicely into our home [...]
