Day 117 - 126




I have been a bit under the weather lately, but I knew I was getting better when I stepped out of the house to do a little shopping.  I went to a local store here In Austin called Sanctuary, and they had the Mindy Weiss collection, which I absolutely LOVE!!  I ended up buying this cute bag to hold my wedding day shoes and some cute slippers to wear on my wedding day while I get ready!  I wish I could of gotten some more things, but maybe later on.  
Also we have decided to focus a bit more on the decor recently and I am excited to say that I finally feel confident that our vision is slowly coming together.  I don't want to give away too many details but we are thinking of some drapery work also to help make the atmosphere a bit more romantic and secluded from the other part of the hotel.  =)  Keep checking in and I may post soon some pictures of what I have in mind!

Day 103 - 116




Hello my dear friends, sorry it has been a long time since I have last blogged.  I had my first test this week and my second one next week so please keep me in your prayers!  As far as the wedding planning is going, very well.  We are in the middle of trying to pick out linens for the tables and reception area and our transportation for the day.  I met with Greg last week at the Westin and he showed me some real great linens and I hope that everyone else likes them.  I also had the great pleasure of taking my mom along with me so she could see what our vision is for the wedding day.  I think she really enjoyed herself and she really loved the hotel.  We got to see some of the rooms they will have for guests and let me say I was very impressed.  
Finally we receieved our Save the Date cards and they are beautiful!!  I cannot wait to have them addressed by a calligrapher and send them out!!  Here are some pics and I hope you all love them as much as I do!!

Day 96 - 102


Hello my dear friends.  I hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day Weekend!  Anthony and i had a very relaxing weekend, which are few, especially since we went to a great outdoor concert on Sunday.  I was able to see Jack Ingram, Corey Morrow, and Pat Green LIVE!!  The weather was a bit hot, but it was worth seeing all those amazing artists!!  Also Anthony was thrilled to have the official kickoff weekend for college football, so here is a shout out to UT, "HOOK 'EM HORNS"!!  
As far as the wedding goes, things are moving along.  I have begun to look for bridesmaids dresses and let me say there are a ton of options out there.  I really think I am going to stick to satin materials for them so there can be a small amount of harmony.  I also have been searching for inspirations and I have found this one blog that I absolutely LOVE.  It is the blog from Southern Weddings Magazine, and I encourage everyone to check them out!!  Also look under their featured pros and see all the amazing photographers they have listed!  I could look for days at all the amazing work out there!!  Check them out here. Until next time!
