Truly, Cinderella

I’m obsessed!  Wedding plans have taken over my life!  My poor, sweet finance’ must listen to wedding talk 24/7!  Bless his heart, he never complains and is always good to help me work through ideas.  In fact, he’s so good that after listening to me stress about all the upcoming due dates, and appointments, he customized a spreadsheet for me.  Now everything can be listed in excel in it’s proper category.  Reason 528 why I adore him. 

We have mailed the Save the Dates and now are working on invitations.  The Save the Dates turned out simply fabulous, thanks to the incredibly talented team of Matt and Katrina Ballentine.  http://www.ballentinestudios.com/  Not only did they take the engagement pictures, Matt Ballentine, talented graphic designer, styled the photo magnets.  They completed captured out nostalgic view.  Super job! 
I must share

 Our invitations have been created by another oh-so talented graphic designer, Lindsey Overman.  One Tuesday morning I shot her an email describing a bit of what I wanted.  We are marrying at the historic Little Chapel in the Woods, and the gorgeous lanterns hanging from the ceiling became my inspiration for the invitations.  After sending her pics of the chapel and reminding her of our elegant, vintage theme she shot over the most perfect invitation, all complete by lunchtime!  Incredible.  She customized a design better than I could have asked for.  This girl should have her own marketing/design firm.  Once they have been mailed I will upload a pic so everyone can see.  

And as a last order of business; last night I went to the Technorati site http://technorati.com/ to look for other wedding blogs, and I stumbled on another Encore Bride.  In fact, that is the name of her blog.  She has some great ideas and links on her blog, that I plan to pan over later.
