I finally found (and bought) the boxes that our wedding invitations will be mailed in. I'm so excited! I am working with Kristin Schwartz-Lauster to copy a design that I found on
www.thedreamgardens.com, a website that creates hand-made wedding invitations for a pretty penny and a 4-6 month advance order. I won't show you the exact design so it will be a surprise when it arrives in the mail. It has been really wonderful, so far, to be able to rely on our friends to help us out with wedding plans, photographs, and, now, invitations. I'm sure there will be many people to thank when it's all said and done. Oh... and there will be a crafting party in the near future to put together the invitations and other DIY projects.
On another note, I went dress shopping for the first time this Saturday with Team Bride. It was more fun than I expected it to be... the company had a lot to do with it. We visited
Marry Go Round, a really nice boutique that sells dresses on consignment. It was a good first-dress-shopping experience. This Thursday the team and I are going champagne tasting at 13 celsius!
Allen is in charge of Gary, the guitarist who was playing at Potbelly's in Clear Lake the day we got engaged. We have high hopes for Gary and his ability to play random Blue October and Dashboard Confessional songs.
One last note... I just bought four
J Crew wedding dresses online. Team Bride has created a monster.
