Bad Blogger + Wedding Details

I know, I know...I've been a bad blogger :(
Wedding planning has completely taken over my life, but now that the wedding is less than
two weeks away (eeek!) things are starting to settle down and everything is coming together!

So, here are a few updates on our wedding :)

This is the dress I selected for our sweet bridesmaids...


It is the J. Crew Silk Taffeta Blakely Dress in 'Aged Driftwood'.  Swoon!
All three of my girls picked this little gem out - I absolutely can't wait to see them in it!

We picked out these beauties as our invitations...



We both completely fell in love with these invitations.  We knew we didn't want the same
ol' cookie cutter invitations that we've seen 100 times.  We wanted ones that were different
and incorporated our style.  We added the floral backing to our invitations, too. And the color
was perfect since we are using mint green, coral, greens, ivory and other natural tones.
We knew they were perfect for us!

I've been working on a few wedding projects and post those soon!
Thanks for hanging in there with me while all this craziness has been going on!
Y'all are the best :)

Wedding Bells

Well, the wedding is less than two months away (eeek)!  Most everything is taken care of
with the exception of a few small DIY projects.  I can't tell you how excited I am to marry
my best friend and the love of my life!  He is everything (and more) that any girl could ever
want in a friend, confidant and husband.  So, without further ado here are a few pictures
of some of the wedding items I've been working on and a sneak peek at a few things...


Wedding invitations (that went out this past weekend!) from minted.com
And here they are with the lovely (and non-traditional) stamps...


And take a look at this sweet koozie my wonderful friend Miranda got me!  I love it!


Below is the wedding insert I made - monogram was made on Wedding Chicks.


As far as the bridesmaids dresses go, I told my sweet girls they could pick whichever dress they
wanted in the J. Crew Silk Taffeta Collection in the color I requested - and they all ended
up picking the same dress!  Can you guess which one?  Which color do you think I went with?

I can't wait for this weekend - we have a wonderful group of friends that are throwing
us a wedding shower in the fiancĂ©'s hometown.  I am so excited to see everyone!
What are your weekend plans?

You're invited...

Sometimes I actually decide to put my mediocre graphic design skills to work (or play!).
I like to fiddle around with making invitations, cards, etc.
Sooo, here are a few of the items I've been using as practice lately...






Hope you enjoyed my little doodles :)
Some of the fonts I used came from Da Font and Kevin & Amanda (they're FREE!)
p.s. - Happy 100th post to me!  How crazy is that?
Time flies when you're having fun!
