Jewelry!
Posted on January 22, 2009
At the January Gallery Hop we met a really awesome lady at one of the galleries that makes glass jewelry. She mostly makes pendants but she is branching out into bracelets, earrings, rings, etc. while we were there we were looking for a necklace that I can wear with my dress. We started talking to her about what we were looking for and she told us that she can personalize things and make what we want. We thought this would be a really unique and original thing to have for our wedding. So we Googled her, looked up her website, and met with her on Tuesday night.
It was really fun to look through all the things that she can make and pick out what we liked and didn’t like. We told her the general idea of what we are looking for and she is going to whip something up for us! I am really excited about this. She makes some really cool stuff! Check out her site!

Registries, Cakes, and Tuxes.. Oh My!
Posted on January 16, 2009
We’re making progress! This is all such a fun experience. I get more and more excited as the days pass! We have really accomplished a lot in the past couple of weeks.
Registries: We started looking at places to register. So far we have Target and Bed, Bath & Beyond, and we are considering Macy’s. We keep hearing that it is very fun to register.. so we will see!
Cake: On Tuesday, we met with Alli who is making our cake. We basically nailed down all the major details, and we’ll be tweaking it as it gets closer to the date. She is very talented, and she is going to do a fantastic job!
Tuxes: All of the tuxes have been picked out! We are getting them through MW Tux. If you’re a groomsman, you should probably go get yourself fitted by the end of February, because that’s when prom season starts. Who really wants to wait in an hour-long line with a bunch of high school boys to get fitted for your tux? I know I wouldn’t! They are going to look amazing, though!
Dresses: My sister/matron-of-honor, Dana, and I went last night to pick out the dresses that the bridesmaids will be wearing. They are very cute! You girls will also probably want to get fitted/ordered by the end of February or early March.
Videography: We met with Chris, our videographer a few days go. We are really excited about using his talents. He’s going to offer more than we could have asked for!
Invitations: We also picked out our invitations a few days ago. We’re going to try to be pretty creative with them, so watch the mail in a few months and you will see!
Both of us feel very productive as far as the planning is coming. I am so glad things are just falling into place for us. It’s been awesome so far! Feel free to leave suggestions or comments for us. We’ll keep you posted for more info!
Also – we set up an on-line RSVP on our website! So when you get your invitation, you don’t have to worry about filling out a card and sending it in the mail. You can do it all right here! Exciting, right?
