Check off the List!

I have been looking and searching for socks for the boys! I really wanted to find a pair of argyle with black and white color but I have come up empty handed! I honestly didn't think it would be this difficult! While I was window shopping the other day... I found these at Express. I bought a pair for Darin and well...his work schedule has been insane lately so...soon as he is home I'd like him to try them on and see how they look!

In the meantime, I am almost done with STDs and found these cute stamps at the post office! The postman himself assisted me in finding the best match! At first I was a little shocked that he would be this interested in helping me... he was definitely getting into it...holding them up with the envelopes... but I must say I am happy with the end results! So, a big thank you goes out to Albert Bierstadt and of course that postman dude :) Likey Likey?

Making progress..

These past couple of weeks have actually been very fun! It seems like everywhere I go..I find something else to purchase.. "oh that would be just perfect!" I am still in the early process of planning and considering that I live completely on the other side of the country doesn't make it any easier. I can say...it is nice to have access to more different types of stores out here in LA versus back in central PA!! Everything is at my fingertips out here...and well that could be very dangerous at the same time!! :) Here are some items that I have picked up on my various shopping trips!

First.. I totally fell inlove with these baskets: TJ Maxx. They will be used for the ladies room..I will fill them up with lotions..soaps..body spray..floss..My cousin did this for her wedding and I was in heaven with that body spray provided!! Especially after a whole evening of dancing! I also found these baskets at World Market and figured they would be perfect for programs. To put them together you lace up the sides and tie the knot :)

Flower Power!

I am definately leaning towards cream colored flowers...possibly some green for the BMs. My Mother made some calls and we are in the works to set up some times to meet with florists when we fly back east next month! So far...I'm loving...the Bells of Ireland for the BMs...against their black dresses! ...and all the cream/white bouquets for the bride! I think the biggest task will be how to decorate the venue. I am really anxious to work with the florist in decorating the fireplace... It's right infront of the dance floor!

Countdown!

9 months and 25 days to go!

Darin proposed August 26, 2007 ...where does time go? This year has definately flown by! Moving to Los Angeles has been such a blast with my Fiance :) I am very excited to marry my bestfriend and make it official!!

This picture was taken about 2 minutes after he proposed! We were taking the dog for a walk in the Hershey, Pa area! tear...tear :)

It has started!

My envelopes have arrived...finally! I got started this afternoon...into late evening. They turned out great! Stunning! Classy! I'm anxious to get all the Save The Dates finished and in the mail :)

Postage!

So...my heart fluttered when I came across this at zazzle.com! Damask....come out, come out wherever you are!

Damask please?

Damask is definately making an appearance on May 30, 2009!

Cakes & Sweets!

I know we still have time to decide on a cake but I can't resist looking at tons of pictures. There are no limits....When it comes to flavors..well I have always wanted a red velvet cake. I think we will just wait till our appoint. in September and go from there! It will be fun tasting several different types of cake!! I've come across some eye catching sweets! okay, now I am super excited for our cake appointment!

Save The Dates!

We ordered our Save The Dates! Dustin our photographer assisted me in coming up with the perfect magnets! We couldn't decide on just one..so there will be two! Wonder which one you will get?

The Color says...

My gorgeous friend Anna came to the rescue and was the model for the possible BM dresses! ARIA Dresses, Black with an Ivory Sash. This was the best color combo to accent my dress! You will all understand how difficult it was to match my dress once you see it! So what do you think? I'm thinking Classy...Elegant...Sophisticated... My previous thoughts were pink but it just didn't compliment my dress! Good bye pink...Hello black :) xoxo
