The Wedding Chronicles: ACT TWO "Mood Board Edition"

It's all happening! The wedding planning has taken on a new level of speed with the final "all clear" from my father on final budget. We have meetings scheduled with a florist, negotiations with a band that my father swears by (who else has a dad that has such an opinion on bands?!) and I am looking at white dresses this weekend! Or as my friend, Kate and I have decided to call it, we are just going 'shopping'... This helps with the anxiety? I think. 

We also have a wedding planner secured that has planned dozens of events including many for the Sundance Film Festival (thanks, Pam!) and a photographer flying in from Dallas. I also recently placed an order with a custom stationery company here in Houston, the Seahorse Bend Press (check out their Etsy shop here). They are going to do all of our paper goods including save the dates, invites, monogram, and programs. This is the original suite that caught my eye. What do you think? I am going to do it in different colors and patterns (see above - the brighter, the better!), but am SO excited to see the final product. Also, have a tentative booking with the fabulous, super-talented Julie Soefer for bridal portraits for later this spring (once my body is banging, of course).

I am getting really, really excited and thanks to a long relaxing week in the BVIs I am just about ready to conquer anything. The love and support of the fiance, family and friends (wedding dress team! Brooke, the sister/wedding planner/father wrangler!) is the main thing propelling me forward. 

Promise to keep you posted on invite proofs and wedding dress selections! Stay tuned. XO.
