Entered My First Contest

Wish me luck please! I just entered my first wedding related contest from LMG Events. Most of you know I'm not so great with technology so fortunately for me I was able to submit my individual inspiration pictures and Letty from LMG created this for me, whatcha think?

My Seating Chart

My friend Amy had this really cool seating chart so I'm going to use it as well. I'm going to have my seating chart on a gold easel instead of a table.

Beautiful Centerpieces

I love centerpieces with sticks so that is a must with me. There's a picture of a centerpiece I'm looking for from ms.m&m07, she had exactly what I want. My flower mock up is next week so i'll have pics soon.

If the Shoe Fits

You know what they say, "if the shoe fits". Well with me that's pretty rare. My feet enjoy wearing a size 5 or 5.5, as odd as that may seem for a 28 year old it's true. I have a difficult time finding shoes that fit comfortably and look cute. Most shoes start at a 6, that just doesn't fly with my tiny toes. I've ordered a few shoes as I need them for my December dress fitting and its down to these three. So many pros and cons of all of these shoes. The one I love is a 4 inch heel, Zappos said it was 3.5, they lied! I love them but cant walk in em'. I tried to all over the house. The other two are not as cute but a lot more comfortable. I'm going shopping tomorrow with all of the other lunatics that wait for Black Friday, we'll see what else turns up.

Setting the Tone

I'm still deciding between these 3 invites, I keep chaning my mind and it's making me crazy. I've asked many people for their opinions and they are just all over the board. Whichever I decide it will be in espresso and ivory with a funky cursive type font. I cant even imagine how I'm going to choose a font when i've been back and forth with these damn 3 invites for so long. Does a 3 sided coin exist? What to do what to do??????????

All About Us

Bobby and I met in 2001 right before my 21st birthday. We were in the same group of friends and would see each other out often. I was dating someone else at the time and one day Bobby said to me, "when are you going to get rid of "x" and give me a shot". Little did he know I had just recently broke things off and was back on the scene. A few weeks later we started dating and the rest is history! We moved in together within a few months and became inseperable. We bought our first house about two years ago and couldnt be happier. Both of us are origionally from South Florida but have made Orlando our home. Keep your eyes on the blog because I will be updating this often. Happy wedding planning everyone!

By the way, if any of these are your pics please let me know so I can give you credit. I have been storing them in a folder online and dont know where most of them came from. So if it was you, thanks! =)

Eat Some Cake

We're having a Godiva Marble Cake that is just amazing!!!! I'm a huge dessert person so cake is very important to me. At first I didnt think I needed anything special but then I realized I may have been losing my mind. Of course I need something special, a great looking cake and an even better taste! We're getting our cake from A Piece of Cake by Elena. Its going to be a 3 tiered white buttercream cake with a brown ribbon at the base of each tier. They'll be a bow in the middle of each ribbon and it will be textured to look like a raw silk material. Since I'm such a lunatic when it comes to desserts we're also having a 3 tiered dessert tray with mini pastries delivered to each table. My mouth is watering!!!!!!!!!!

Flowers Flowers Flowers

My favorite flowers have always been orchids. All variations of orchids, I just love them. Recently I found this new flower that is just so unique. At first I thought it was a poppy, dont know why but poppy just popped in my head when I saw it. After some major google searches I found out that it is an anemone. Its just amazing! I'm hoping to incorporate this flower in my bouqet.

Hair Inspiration

Here is what I think I may do for the wedding, once again if these are your pics let me know. Thanks!

Make Up Inspiration

I am new to this whole blogging world so bare with me. Here are some gorgeous pics of make up I love. If these are your photos please let me know and I'll make note of it, I have no idea where they came from as I've been collecting these pics for a while now. Enjoy!
