Wedding'mare'

So last night I dreamt my first wedding nightmare. Although it wasn't horrific, I still woke up a little nervous. The dream started out with a nice wedding, then of course afterwards we went to the reception. It was dinnertime, and no one was receiving any food, because the bride (yes, that's me) forgot to assign placecards letting the staff know which entree they were to receive. So I had to do a quick improvise and cut different colors of paper to represent each entree. (Where the colored paper came from, I still don't know.) ...Then I woke up.

Like I said it wasn't horrible or anything, but it was my first wedding nightmare. I know it is very unlikely for these events to happen, but it still makes you think, what things you could forget to do. I mean I do'nt think I'll ever forget anything, because I'm "Miss Planner" and everything planned to the "T's" (or so I think/hope).

Happy Mother's Day

Ok so this title has nothing to do with what I'm going to write about, but I had to wish everyone a Happy Mother's Day!!!

So Lamar and I have been working on our invitations all this week. It has been a lot of fun ;) (No reallly it wasn't bad) Things are drawing nearer and these things have to go out by the 1st of June. I needed some inspiration for one of the invitation projects so I went to a local scrapbooking store called Anthologies. This place is so neat! I love it, I just wish I was going to be here longer so I could get to know the wonderful owner as well as this great store. Ok, well where I was going with that is this....We (Jennifer and I) decided that I needed the letter "R" to complete the look of what I was going for. Instead of me buying this cool little machine (which I would love to have) that was going to cost around $100 she told me she would cut out the "R's" for me. So last night I finally got them, and they look GREAT!!! I am so excited to get to use these. I'm actually just excited for the entire invitation to come together and for everyone to see all the hard work, time, patience, and love that went into these.

So for all you mother's out there have a Happy Mother's Day and look forward to the year to come when your children get married and you get to have all of this fun!!

Invitations

I can barely believe that I now have 3 months left til the wedding. Where has the time gone. The big project going on right now...the invitations. I think I have finally gotten the final design done and now all I need are the finishing touches. I am not liking all of these posts without pictures, but I also don't want to spoil the fun. I do promise though that after the wedding or after some of these items have made it in the mail I will post pictures so everyone can get a taste of my DIY wedding.

I don't know about anyone else, but I am loving all of the DIY projects that come about because of the wedding. Although, I wish I had a few bridesmaids nearby to help with all of the projects, I guess I will make it on my own.
