Do you know that feeling you get when you’re so tired you can feel it in your bones? Well, I’m having that feeling. When Napkin comes home from work and says, “What did you do today?” it’s hard for me to make all of the wedding planning, honeymoon booking, and family gathering sound as exhausting … Continue reading

Wedding Lighting.
Let it be known that as of today, May 10th, 2012… I am going into full on wedding insanity mode. Let me explain: I have been day dreaming about wedding lighting for some time now. We chose the timing of our ceremony and reception based on the time of day… warm late-afternoon light for the … Continue reading
For the Love of Shoes.
This post is for anyone who loves a good pair of shoes. Specifically, though, it’s a post for my bridesmaids. And for anyone else. This post is for everyone! I’m not sure if there is a standard protocol for this sort of thing… but I would really like for my bridesmaids to all wear the … Continue reading
Some Links That I Love.
I am learning that a lot of brides simply hire someone to do everything else for them. They sign a check, sit back and walk down the aisle.

I packed it all away in Tupperware… But made sure to make a lovely little lunch box so that he would … Continue reading

First and foremost, our final list of bridesmaids and groomsmen has been made. My ladies are: Sissy Jammer Sissy Buchanan and Amaleeta. You knew about … Continue reading
Splurge Alert!
Napkin is not one for pictures. He doesn’t like to take them. He doesn’t like to be in them. This made my love for photo booths especially difficult when we would spot one on date nights. I specifically remember a night in Greensboro, NC when we were seeing MegaBand (a band that covered the entire … Continue reading
MY COLOR SCHEME YES FINALLY (Updated!)
This is my theory: Napkin started bringing home magazines from work to stop me from being THAT GIRL in the grocery store who holds up the line because she’s desperately trying to figure out if, in fact, the bat baby actually exists. It’s just a theory… Anyway. Napkin brings me tons of magazines from work … Continue reading
