Progress, slow going

I recently downloaded a 30 trial version of Adobe Photoshop and I am absolutely addicted. Over the past week I have downloaded about 20 brush sets and close to 200 new fonts which I'm sure is the reason my computer is freezing every 3.7 seconds. Anyhow, I finished the design for our Save-The-Dates and our candy bar goodie bags!!! All I have to do is finish printing them and pray that the postcards are firm enough to pass through the tough Postal requirements.
So I think we've finally tied down a theme and finalized it.
Black and white gingham (or buffalo plaid) with teal (Pool to David's Bridal) accents. our flowers will more than likely be white daisies and our centerpieces are fauz carnations in lovely little black vases. Back yard picnic style with lawn games, very little emphasis on dancing, and an amazing assortment of food. Most of our paper products like staitonary and goodie bags are based on brown Kraft paper, with black whimsical handwritten style fonts!!

I have two dresses, the first I purchased on e-bay for a wonderul 76$, but because it weighs a small 8000 pounds I decided to buy another lighter weight less formal dress for the reception which is the primary focus of our wedding day. I don't want to spend the entire evening in a ball gown sweating all night in 4 inch heels.

It's late so I'll post pictures at a later date, thanks for reading!!

Some decorations

Finally finished the first of the 6 ribbon pomander balls which will line the aisle hung from metal shepherd hooks. Each ball takes approximately 130 feet of ribbon in various designs. These are then cut in to 4 inch strips and individually pinned to a 6 inch Styrofoam ball. Finished it off with a 3 foot strand of pretty ribbon and we're ready to go!

Here (if the picture stays in the right spot) are two different options for table numbers. There will also be similar frames with the labels for our candy bar.

The Basics

Welcome to our wedding blog!!

For those who don't know we have finally solidified the date as June 25th, 2010. The location is beautiful Bolingbroke Manson [see above pictures] in Radnor Pennsylvania (very close to Villanova and Philadelphia).
