Previously. . .

We spent a full week visiting 9 bridal salons in search of "the" dress & learned some lessons along the way.


There's been a bit of drama with the venue. Sister don't play that here or there!


We met some photographers, picked a videographer, picked a DJ. 

Had a few ideas about flowers.


And that's what you missed on Hearts & Whimsy!

CHEERS!!!!

Engage! – Part 2

While I am starting to like the idea of the transit museum more and more I’m kinda leaning away from having to pay admission for 4 people just to take some pictures. Now I’m not really a nature-y type of gal but the park is free and is pretty much open all the time (well except 1am- 5am). There are some good locations worthy of a camera lens. Truthfully, admission isn’t really that much but ever since Miss Cinnamon Bun posted this:

Public Service Announcement

Sister had something to say so I let her hijack my blog for the day.

Mediocrity is NOT an option!

Yatta!*

We did it! Finally! What could I possibly be so excited about? Bridesmaid dresses of course! Sis and Lil Sis went to RK Bridal last week to try on dresses. I went too but that’s not the important part. I quite preferred not being the one trying on dresses. We arrived around 5:30pm on a weekday and it was surprisingly quiet. RK is great because they have a very wide selection but…

Engage!

The mister and I have been throwing around ideas for our engagement shoot. Poor Mr. H could not fathom the import of an engagement shoot but he’s sweet and lets me persist in my madness.

Bits of Randomness

I'm still working on the invitations. A special thank you to my super duper minions! I'm off most of this week and next and will hopefully have them closer to finished by then. They won't be finished entirely because I have one or two more elements to procure. I'm kind of over my invites at this point. It's sort of like having too much of something and never wanting to see it again. I suspect this too shall pass. In other news I'll share some random updates and things.

Cake!

The Time Has Come

It’s time ya’ll!!!!  To get those invites assembled. Since I assumed the printer minion role I got right to work when the paper arrived. Paper is heavy ya’ll!!! Especially 550 sheets of heavy cardstock.

The first thing I did was separate the paper into stacks for the invites, programs and menus. There was a separate pile for the extras too. Remember the bins for organization? That's where the paper now lives.
