Wedding invitations

I have a lot of my wedding already planned...but for some reason I can't shake that nervous ,tummy twisted, I left the iron on and its burning my house down feeling.
Is that normal ladies?

One of the things that is stressing me out is invitations. I want it to be cute, unique, fun and not drain my wedding funds. I get overwhelmed reading these crafty blogs with these crafty wives to be creating magic out of nothing. But I am determined to have fun with this...So here are some cute ideas I've seen around the web.

oh and if any wedding veterans have ideas, advice send it my way...

1. Tie the knot wedding invites....totally and looks simple

2.Plant-able seed cards

3. something that shows the couples personality like this photo booth invite

4. Film canister wedding invite...totally unique


5. Picture wedding invites.. I love how the pictures are arranged!
I think my favorites are four and five

What did you do for your wedding invites???

cheers

Wedding

So I have been biting my tongue for a couple weeks as I prepared and planned for my wedding pre-proposal. I know it sounds a little premature , but the mister and I decided to start. We have been talking seriously about getting married for a year now and frankly I've known its him since the moment I saw him as I walked down the steps in the DFW airport we i went to visit him a couple years ago..but more on that later :).

But since he planned to propose soon he said it was fine if i started. A week ago today he proposed in my back yard under the stars . It wasn't the way he wanted it to be but he put my wants and eagerness ahead of his own desires for our proposal and did it. I am incredibly lucky and grateful to have a man in my life that makes me number one in everything.

I have the venue and date booked: May 18th in this lovely Garden where I live. It is basically magic. And they take care of everything except invitations and flowers....so I am practically done planning...strange. Here are some pictures....





I'm thrilled to finish planning, get dresses with my brides maids( Ashley(moh), Amanda, Sabrina and cami) and finally be legally bound to my best friend and the best man I know. Expect lots of wedding posts and ooshy gooshy love posts to my soon to be hubby.

YAY IM GETTING MARRIED!

Love Notes: Us

I did a MOCK wedding shoot with one of the most wonderful friends a girl could have, libby of libbyloo photography for an new site. And honestly I swooned and almost believed the photos myself when I saw them. When the boy saw these he called just to tell me how beautiful he thought i was , how much he loves me and how he can't wait until our real day.

Dallas one day it will be our wedding ( soon?!) , but it doesn't matter because it always has been and always will be us!
I love you endlessly ..your mock bride!

Love Notes: Better off

Dallas I think you should know...

enough said....

Love notes: Question

My loverbird had his academy interview today and just like I said he was accepted. I knew he would because he is an amazing man who is very good at his job. He has been missing police work since he left Texas to move here for me. I am more than thrilled to know that he is on the way back to a job he loves.

Dallas I am so proud of you and I can't imagine life without you. I know things have been lame because you just wanted to be a cop again and you were being a baby whale, but I will always be here for you; whatever you need.
So one question...hopefully you don't have any plans...want to grow old with me?

Love Notes: Bumble Bee

I made Dal a dorky computer background because he is my bee and I want him forever.

hehe Isn't it cute?!! I thought I was so clever.

Love notes: Today, quiet day

Today is Monday and I am alone, again, in foggy San Francisco thinking how to possibly explain how I feel .....

Love notes: Its hard to pick

Love notes: Pouts and smiles.

This morning we had a little fight and it was about what we always argue about. I wanted to stay mad , but i knew it was silly. And then I saw this....
No more Grr's or grumbles this weekend , i make that promise, just lots of cuddling and such!

Love notes: Dear Dal

Dear Dallas,
I have been back at school for a week now. And we both know I am a HUGE nerd so I am loving it. I have stuff to do, too much! However, being away from you is soooo horrible. One week, one day, one hour , one minute without you makes me feel like i am missing a part of me. I feel like I am walking around without an arm or something.
I love you so much. Thank you for the continuous support you give me, thank you for bringing me GF goodies tomorrow and thank you for reading me cheesy vampire love stories until I fall asleep each night.

You are the BEST.




Later today and this week I will post some GF blogs and a tour of my dorm. Stay tuned
cheers

Love notes: Long, hard day

Today I started up a new semester and unfortunately Mondays I am in school for 7 hours. after which I promptly ( and always) begin homework. I sat for three hours after doing homework and guess what?!! I did not finish it all. It makes me feel a little defeated , like I wanna just curl up and be the pout-o-matic. But I remember why I am here, how much I am making my mommy proud, how much money this is costing, and one certain boy who I will get to see once I make it through the weekend.

So despite the heaping load of homework that will only worsen by this time tomorrow and my ridiculous exhaustion and despite my this uncreative love note you still put a smile on my face.

I love you!

love notes:love memories

I made this with little slices of things that remind me of you and all the great times we have together. I carry around a little snapshot like this is my head, always, constantly going through my moments with you. The silliest things remind me of you like a little pink domo, sour candy, any cop or cop like thing I see, puppies, blond babies, couples, movies, almost everything.If only i could really hold each memory like a picture.. i think we should take more pics :)

Love Notes: Remember

I was thinking about us last night. How we started, how we clicked, when you told me you loved me. I remember it all. I keep being afraid I'll forget. I don't want to because it makes me so happy.

I remember when you first told me you loved me. It makes me cry big baby whale tears of happiness still. It was late and we were texting because you were at work. I had a horrible day. I don't remember why, maybe school or work. You said you had something to tell me but wanted to wait to make it right. I did not have any time what you were talking about. Then you changed your mind . You decided I deserved or needed to hear something because of my bad day. Then you told me..you love me. It was perfect it and it still is.

Thank you for loving me, for giving me your love...
And that was it I knew I was yours and you were mine.I decided a Texas visit was a must. I came to see you we kissed , laughed and fell in love some more. I hope I always remember it this clearly. Remember this picture?

Love notes:Hold my hand

Don't matter how you say it baby, cause I feel it.

And I know you feel it too

SO why don't you hold my hand.

I am having so much fun doing this! If you blog join in. Stay posted for a special blog later today!

Love notes: silly games

One of my favorite things about you is that you let me be the hurricane that is me. And you play along! I swoon every time we play the I love you more than game. Seeing you smile and come up with strange things is too much fun. SO I thought you should know....

Your turn!

Love notes: I love you today

I was reading the lovely Kimberly Scott's Blog today and she started a new series called love notes. It is for her new husband and herself. She is celebrating their love in a very sentimental way. It being the new year I have decided to post more. I have posts made and ready to publish soon , but decided this would be a lovely addition to my own blog.

I happen to be with an amazing man and I strive everyday to forget the small things that don't matter and express to him how much he means. I think this is a wonderful way. Love is a beautiful , powerful bond and should be celebrated. I took Kimberly's challenge to remember my love, show my love and give more love.

So Dallas, in my robe and towel, here and now I love you today.
