Invitations!


I haven't had a chance to take actual photos of these beautiful babies yet, so these pdf snapshots will have to work until then. I cant tell you how much I love them. I'm so proud to have worked with Terrence Moline - such a great talent!

Répondez s'il vous plaît

The invitations are out! We sent them earlier this week and have already heard a couple of happy comments! I'm so proud of them and can't wait for them to arrive in everyone's mail box.

I'll post pictures of them next week, as I don't want to ruin the surprise for any of the recipients.

Registry Items on Sale!

Sadly, Macy's is not doing so well in this economic downturn. As a result, they have deeply discounted many of their items - most of our registry actually.

I'd highly recommend checking out our registry now, if you intended to get us something from there... Just a friendly update!

We're also registered at Crate and Barrel and Breed & Co. where our china, crystal, flatware and other kitchen items are.

The Bridal Party Attire is Set!

Lon and I were finally able to finalize the bridal attire today, as the sample of the Calvin Klein gray tux was in! To my merriment, it looked fantastic! After some slight urging (read insisting) I had him fit again and ordered the tux in a smaller size. I understand their training, but the saleswomen kept insisting the jacket be as long as Lon's hand outstretched. This meant he needed an extra long - which made his legs look quite short. Last time we went, I tried to argue my point, but lost. Then I came home, did some research and found I was right - contemporary fashion shows tuxes to be as long as the mid thumb (see picture below). So he'll wear this with ivory vest and tie to match my dress.

For the groomsmen and fathers, black two-button Calvin Klein suits with gray vests and ties to match Lon. (please excuse the model's head!)


The bridesmaids will still wear these yummy watermellon J Crew dresses as posted before....
I am so exited about the contrast between the bridal party and Lon and me. It's really going to be gorgeous! This contrast, paired with that in the flowers - pinks and spring colors for me; white, pale pinks and blue thistle for everyone else - should really pop!
