I have a friend who may be getting engaged in the future. This morning I showed her a few of the wedding blogs that I visit from time to time. I love these wedding blogs because they give me ideas. The wedding magazines can get expensive, but the blogs are free!
Here are a few of the wedding links- visit them if you are planning wedding, like wedding stuff, or just have some free time :)

Invitations!
We had an opportunity to have our wedding invitations printed for free! We just had to pay for the paper and the envelopes!! We couldn't pass up this money saving opportunity!!
They're beautiful and i think they really reflect our "theme" and style. We actually designed them ourselves- we searched the internet for the design and the fonts. Then our friend Marc, put them together with a special program. They're awesome! Check them out for yourself!!
We also had reception cards (containing info about the reception) and RSVP cards printed but they look very similar with the grass design at the bottom.
We love them! The green! The design! The fonts! They're just lovely!
Sending love your way!!

425 days!
!Wow! Only 425 days away. Okay- so we still have a lot of time until we reach out big day, but I am so glad that we are waiting. This summer will be very stressful because Nick is finishing his thesis and graduating, I will be looking for a new teaching job, Nick will be pursuing a job and we will be moving (most likely to a new state). Yikes...when I type that all together it makes me feel a little stressed. Deep breaths. Just think, one year from now we will be much more established! Nick and I enjoy dreaming about out big day, it has been very fun to be engaged and enjoy the journey!
Nick and I recently read about a unique type of men's wedding ring that contains parts of a meteorite!! Yes, a meteorite....from space! Wouldn't this be perfect for Nick?
Check out the website that has the meteorite rings for sale!!

As for me, I am still dreaming about what my wedding band will look like. I think we have plenty of time before we need to truly worry about that!
Lots of love!

Guitar or Cello/Violin or Both or What?
We have been dreaming about our wedding music lately. What will we have? We have a very talented friend who could sing and play the guitar. We have access to a couple local high school kids who plays cello and violin.
The cello/violin has a traditional touch and feel. Which is something both Nick and I desire. However, guitar music would just fit perfectly outside AND we love guitar music! Hmmm.....
Back to dreaming and enjoying life. 440 days left!!

THE DRESS
We got the dress! What it looks like must remain a secret until the big day! I have shown a few family and friends but Nick must remain in the dark. It's so hard to keep it a secret. I wish that I could tell Nick all about it! I know he'll love it.
I tried on 10 dresses. "The One" was the third dress I tried on. I didn't know right away but I knew that it was my favorite of all of the dresses. The second time I put the dress on, I cried. It was at that point that I knew. :)
It really feels great to have the dress!

More lovely things
I really like this little "do it yourself" project. I am thinking we could use different size glass containers and decorate them with green or purple papers. Then we could put candles inside them and it would give off a beautiful huge of color around the room. For centerpieces, we don't really want flowers at every table--- we like the idea of some tables having flowers and some with just candles....I am posting the link for the project here so I have it for the future!
Flowers
I really like this bouquet of flowers. They're beautiful! Don't you think they'd look pretty in front of a white dress? It doesn't really match the colors we have chosen for our big day but I don't think I mind that. Plus there is a nice little tutorial on how you can actually make this bouquet yourself! I am posting the link for the tutorial here so that I have it for the future! One of our family friends has actually offered to arrange the flowers for us! We are really thankful to have such helpful, ambitious and loving friends and family!!
