The Royal Wedding

I don't think it would be possible for me to be "obsessed" with weddings and forget to mention the royal I-Do's. I love the new Princess' Grace-Kelly inspired dress and her modestly simple bouquet. The only flaw in this fairy-tale wedding would have to be the once-handsome Prince's growing bald spot. Other than that, sheer perfection.*

Engagement Fiesta!!

A few months ago I felt particularly inspired when I saw this Spanish Bridal Fashion photo shoot. While I knew that the theme wouldn't necessarily play well with the vision for our wedding, I definitely wanted to find a way to incorporate some of the ideas into our engagement party.  The idea for an engagement "fiesta" naturally came next. We'll be celebrating, primarily with family, on May 6th at my mother's home. I'll be sure to post pictures of how I tweaked some of the ideas from the photo shoot to fit our playful theme.  Oh, and I can't forget to note that you're getting a second sneak peek at our engagement photos by Shutterbug Photography. More on that to come....

Baby, You're a Firework

I've mentioned my interest in having sparklers at our wedding before. Recently, though, Marc and I have also discussed the possibility of incorporating fireworks within our reception. The example below, only further convinces me of their beauty and excitement. This is definitely an idea in the works....



Engagement Photos Sneak Peek

Our engagement shoot with Shutterbug Photography was such a blast. Here's a fun shot to give you a sneak peek. I can't wait to show everyone the final product. This picture is just the tip of the iceberg :

Just for Fun

This photograph gives a whole new meaning to "Army Wives." I can't get over what a gorgeous shot this is, even if it is just for fun...

Pick Your Seat

I'm a little on the fritz about whether or not this layout is cute or cheesy. I've opted to steer clear of the stress of seating charts and & assigned seats though, so I'm up for new ideas. Whats your take?
