2 Years Ago Today…
Have you noticed Facebook’s new feature in the upper right corner of some pages stating something like “On This Day In 2009″ with your status from that day? As I was reading and commenting on my post about wanting to be a mommy, I noticed that 2 years ago I booked our wedding. I remember [...]

Reception… Beginning Recap
The party has come… and gone! It’s over. 3+ months of planning and it was a lot of fun and turned out absolutely gorgeous. We had tons of compliments about the food, yard, and set up. My parents and younger brother Dan, Dan’s girlfriend Cathy, and her mom, were such a tremendous help to us [...]
Finally… Party Time!
Tomorrow is the day. Finally. We’ve been planning this party/ wedding reception for a little under 3 months. Ya know, had to bask in the glow of our wedding/ Vegas trip for a few weeks. Tomorrow I get to see all the family I haven’t seen in ages, even the estranged half that, quite frankly, [...]

Party Set-Up… 5 More Days

Chocolate Chip-Walnut Cookies
What? How do those relate to babies, weddings or knitting? Well, the next month 26 days is all about testing desserts for our reception. These are potential winners! My favorite site for recipes is definitely Annie’s Eats as she has stuff from every imaginable category, but is a great writer to boot! So yes, I [...]
Chocolate Favors!
OK, so favors. They’re not necessary, but I still think they’re adorable. No, i’m not talking about some little trinket our guests will throw in a drawer, stick on a shelf or throw away… I’m talking about food! More specifically, chocolate Kisses! Yep, I decided on Kisses bc they’re a lot bigger than M&Ms and [...]

Reception Location
Picture it: Lush green open space, swaying palm trees, hanging orchids and bromeliads, candles and bunches of carnations in a fishbowl on all the tables, and twinkle lights and paper lanterns as far as the eye can see. That is the vision I have for our reception. In this space, which is to the left [...]

Thank You Notes Revealed
I totally forgot to post this! About a week or so ago, I ordered our Thank You notes from OvernightPrints. For those curious, I designed them in PhotoShop CS4 using their basic guidelines to ensure everything stayed in the printing lines, popped it onto their system and boom, ordered! One of the main reasons why [...]
