chandelier wedding invitations













Came across these lovely invitations over on 100 Layer Cake. Completely inspired by the couple, each detail has meaning behind it. Love that. Aaaaand it looks kind of like my background image on my computer. :)

design hell














Want some laughs? Try these this comic - how a web design goes straight to hell, and this website - clients from hell. Maybe I can get S to redesign my blog with a sweet graphic of Eames telling everyone how awesome it is, and definitely less "liney".

Monday

stylo

















S showed me this awesome new Gorillaz video, you have got to check it out! They are 3D, and being chased by Bruce Willis (great song too). Watch it here.

Thursday

inspiration from the movies























Green Wedding Shoes is making a regular feature out of their one of their new posts! Awesome! I'm loving all the film inspiration lately! (inspiration from the movies, living in)

Glamour Wedding Blog






Some of you might have noticed that I added a new link to my "wedding" blogroll. It is to Glamour's new wedding blog called, "Save the Date: For Brides (and people who have to put up with them)". Haha. I might be a little biased, but you should definitely check it out!

Wednesday

invitations part three



























I can't show you the photos from yesterday (or this evening) because it will give away too much about the material. That is, except for these few (poor quality) photographs. My sweet fiance surprised me with "just because" flowers. . Also found some super cute stamps for the invitation/rsvps. We are getting closer to mailing them out. YAY. I'll have some non invitation-related posts tomorrow. Promise. I've just had them on the brain lately! :)

Tuesday

invites part zwei
























Ah, RSVP success. Well, at least half of them! They gave us some trouble at the printers a couple of days ago. The full color was too overwhelming for the printer, and we were getting a bit of streaking. No more though, my graphic designer :) and some creative problem solving (a little pattern on the front) fixed it. Sorry for the photo quality! Went and picked up some material for our invitations, and by material, I don't mean fabric! Gotta leave you hanging though. We are working on that part tonight. Also had my second fitting. Dress is all hemmed and ready to go! YAY! Now I just have to find some *ahem* underthings.

Monday

invitations and such























Ah, had a super busy weekend, and got little accomplished. It was special. I'll tell y'all more about it later, but we did manage to get all the invitation cards printed and cut. Aaaand by we, I mean S because I was over studying for an exam, as usual. We also stopped by our cake place to discuss some details. I got this photo of one of the display cakes, beautiful, right? Anywho, we have a fairly busy week ahead. Our invitations need to go out pretty soon to be proper in "wedding etiquette world". I always find it funny that there are so many rules when it comes to this stuff. I mean, we sent out our save-the-dates in January and our wedding is in April. The norm? Six to nine months. Pah-lease. Anywho, got some other personal stuff going on this week as well. Shouldn't affect posting, but no promises! Hope your Monday has been great! :)

Friday

succulent candles

















Too pretty to burn [succulents in pots, set of nine / succulent candle collection].

hanging vases










































When S and I were planning on having our wedding reception at an art gallery, we came up with this great idea. We were going to hang three or so vases very low over each table. So I bookmarked a ton of different styles and forgot about the idea when we opted for another location. Here are some of my favorites - and a few more that I've found around the web.
