You're welcome, Erin. So I took advantage of the Groupon for Mixbook and decided that my guestbook is going to be how I use our childhood pictures in conjunction with each other. I really wanted to create collages and use them for decorating, but since our wedding party is so small there really isn't a place for them and this way I'll have the pictures of us in a much more viewable and keepsake format. Now I just have to keep on my mother and my FMIL to pull pics from our childhood. I'm also planning on using pics taken throughout our relationship (especially because our engagement shoot didn't have very many salvageable shots.) Lisa, I really like the dress you've "created" and if you LOVE, you should totally go for it. My to do list still includes putting together our cake topper, glueing the glass in our sand ceremony frame, buying some kind of vase for the sand, putting the OOT bag pieces together, getting a portable sound system, and finish writing our ceremony. Our insulated mugs came early and they sent us even more than we anticipated! The workmanship is a little lower quality than I expected: the handle glue on the mug is a little messy, and the rubber seal between the lid and the mug is thinner than mugs we already own. We got them from discountmugs.

I had to have the fabulous Mrs Rebecca make them of course!!!  Hopefully it will show up so you can actually see/read them.

I can't wait to see them Brandy!!!

 

Francine, that is a great idea on the photobook!  I'm sorry to hear about the quality of your mugs, hopefully they will still be good for your guests!

I got the Mixbook also.... I'm not sure what formatting I'm going to use yet or if i'm even going to use if for my guest book.  I may use it for a wedding photobook for FI's parents....we shall see>

Those brochures ROCK Brandy! 

 

Yes, we're sending out our AHR invites tomorrow.  They turned out really well.

 

It's freaking snowing AGAIN here.  Grrrr.  Forecasts are calling for a foot of snow today, and my little car doesn't love that.  I keep counting the days to Maui...

On the subject of Maui, FI's mother called him to whine AGAIN about not getting "invited" to Maui with us.  Um, I'm pretty sure "elopement" means just two people.  My mom is amazing and I'd love to have her at our wedding, but we decided it was going to be either ALL of our family, or NONE.  He handles his mom well though, and I have to just let him do it, but it is hard to bite my tongue when a grown woman acts so childish.  Bleh.

Thanks Greys!

That sucks about the snow!!!

Where did you get your AHR invites from?

Yeah thats pretty funny about you FMIL, I swear... family.....
