Signature Mat |
Signed Matte
In Addition to the Guest Book
I have always loved the idea of the signature Matte. I saw this in the house of a newly-wed couple last year and I have always wanted to do it for my own wedding. I might just do this instead of the guest book or I might have the Matte at the Rehearsal Dinner and a Guest book at the ceremony.

Church
look inside
So I had a dream last night that it was my wedding day and we were setting up the ceremony in this little room that could only fit like 20 chairs and I was freaking out thinking "where are we gonna put everyone?" Then the room kept on getting progressively smaller and smaller until the door was too small to fit through...
Then I woke up and was like....."wait....my sanctuary fits like 200 people...it's all good" :-) Here's a pic of the inside of the church....I love the windows don't you?? ![]() |

Flowers
Decorating the Church
Since I have a purple, silver and white theme I was thinking of using white flowers to decorate the church, which would look nice because the pews and windows are trimmed in green
How are you guys decorating the church for the ceremony? just a vase on the altar? I'm thinking of trimming the aisle with flowers too if it's affordable.... ![]() tags:

Wedding Dress
Moving on up!
So Kyle and I have talked about it and we think we might be moving up the Wedding date to April '09 instead of July.
The cool thing is that April 26th 2000 is the day we first started dating. Getting married April 26th 2009 would be so cool! I hope the hall is free!! ![]() tags:

Monogram
First wack at it
So here is my first attempt at a monogram to use for our invitations, place cards, etc. I created one with our names framing the F but it wouldn't copy over well because I had to use Word to make this one. (I love this font BTW) Notice that the date doesn't exist because we have yet to set a date lol. ![]() tags:

Photography
how much is too much?
The photography for the wedding is really important to me, I want someone that has a photo-journalistic style and will do a fabulous job. The problem is that there are literally dozens of high quality photographers in my area for me to choose from. I just have no idea how much money to spend. ![]() tags:

Reception Site!!!
Commissioned Officer's Club, Naval Station Newport
So yesterday I went with my future mother-in-law to look at a possible reception site, the Officer's Club on the Navy base in Newport. I was completely blown away by how beautiful it was. They are completely re-doing the inside banquet halls and they have just installed these beautiful wrap around decks that go right to the water's edge. The larger banquet hall comes with the bigger deck with an outdoor bar and is actually in my price range! ![]() tags:

The Proposal
Beach Proposal at Sunrise!
Kyle came to spend the weekend with me last weekend for our anniversary (April 26th). That night when we went to sleep he snuck out of bed to "wrap my anniversary gift." What he really did was put pictures of us all over my house and wrote out a card for me to find in the morning with a rose. He came back to bed and set his cell phone alarm on vibrate for 5:15 AM and went to sleep. tags: beach proposal
