Miss Airplane's Picture
Miss Airplane, Plymouth, Michigan Age and Occupation: 26, Fundraising Project Coordinator Fiance's Age and Occupation: 27, Food & Beverage Manager Engagement Date: March 31, 2012 Wedding Date: September 2013 Venue: Fox Hills Golf Club & Banquet Center About Me: I'm a true Michigander (born and raised) and a die-hard Wolverine. I am the definition of a multi-tasker and like to believe I am also a perfectionist, but my horrible short-term memory likes to prove otherwise. I'm an English major and a pretty punny girl, so get ready for some really horrible plays on words! When I'm not consumed with wedding planning, I enjoy copious amounts of television and an equally unhealthy addiction to bacon.

The Flower Hour

May 24th, 2013 @ 5:22 am by Miss Airplane

(Warning: flower photo-heavy post!)

Last week during my lunch break. Mr. Plane picked me up from work and we went to visit our florist to finally hammer out the details of our wedding day flowers. I’ve mentioned how much I lurve our florist, Tom Thompson, but I haven’t shared much of our flower inspiration yet.

The reason I haven’t talked much about flowers is that up until our visit with Tom Thompson, I really had no idea what I wanted our “floral vision” to be. I spent a nice chunk of time on Pinterest the night before the visit and found some beauties.

Miss Camera's Picture
Miss Camera, Charlotte, NC/Charleston, SC Age and Occupation: 27 & Emergency Room Physician Assistant Fiance's Age and Occupation: 31 & Newspaper Editor/Designer Engagement Date: October 7, 2012 Wedding Date: September 2013 Venue: The Island House, Charleston, SC About Me: I'm a north-to-south transplant, currently living in Charlotte, North Carolina, but still representing all things Pittsburgh, PA. One month after I moved to NC, I went on a date with a guy I met on Match.com, and now we're getting married! I work in a busy Emergency Room as a Physician Assistant and while the hours are sometimes difficult, I can't see myself doing anything else. I live with my fiance in uptown Charlotte. We have an opinionated 5 year old tabby cat named Milo and a sweet, but rambunctious 8 month old mutt named Charlie (short for Charlotte - she's a girl!). I've embraced Southern culture, and our wedding is no exception---what better location than Charleston, SC? I watch too much TV and know every word to every episode of Friends (I've watched The One With Monica and Chandler's Wedding at least a hundred times...hope I have enough money for Wedding Scenario A!). I love baking cupcakes, cheering for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Penn State Nittany Lions and am openly addicted to celebrity gossip and pop culture.

The One with 100 Days!

May 23rd, 2013 @ 11:24 am by Miss Camera

Where has the time gone?!

It feels like just yesterday I was relishing in the glory of being newly engaged and trying to adjust to the feeling of having a little sparkle on my left hand.

The One with 100 Days! :  wedding charleston resources Ring ring

Personal photo

I’m happy, nervous, excited, terrified, and a little nauseated to report that we are officially at the 100-day mark until I become Mrs. Camera, and I feel like I have so much to do.

I’ve crossed off a significant chunk of my to-do list, and the big things are well under way—our venue is set, we have an amazing caterer with a delicious menu in store for us, our baker is planning our cupcakes, we have an officiant, and, of course, I have a fiance, so technically we have a wedding!

…and yet I feel like there is still so much left to accomplish.

Early on in my wedding planning, I downloaded a free app called WeddingHappy—one of the many, many wedding-planning apps available for download in the App Store. You program your wedding date, and it brings up a task list with suggested finish dates.

Shoe Woes

May 23rd, 2013 @ 10:11 am by Miss Bicycle

No one will see my wedding shoes unless they happen to be looking in the corner of the reception as I break it down on the dance floor, barefoot. Right? Wrong. Wedding shoes have become such a “thing,” and even though I never intended to let it become anything I waste effort on, it certainly has. And I probably have my sister to blame (sorry!).

My sister/MOH NYC has a good friend who works in the shoe department at Bergdorf Goodman. She made a big deal about how he wanted to help me pick out shoes and that he could get me a good deal, yada, yada, yada. I went in with a pretty open mind and only a few requirements: navy or gold (or neutral) and not too expensive. Have you guys ever looked at the Bergdorf shoe section? Their shoes are certainly not within my regular shoe budget, and I was pretty confident they wouldn’t be within my wedding shoe budget, either. My sister told me just to send her friend some ideas and we would go from there. OK, I can do that! I scoured their site and stumbled upon the shoe of my dreams, the Valentino Jewelry-Bow Couture d’Orsay:

Shoe Woes :  wedding savannah shoes Shoe1 Shoe1

You. Guys. Seriously. How gorgeous is that shoe? Well, it is approximately $1,095 worth of gorgeous. Yeah, no. Not happening. I sent him that shoe with the request to find something like that but for cheaper. I wish I was here to tell you that you can get a stunning Valentino gold bow situation for—like—$200. But you can’t. According to my sister’s friend, you can’t really get anything good for “under $1,000.” HAH! Then I guess I will go barefoot?

Back to the drawing board I went. My Gchats were filled with shoe suggestions to and from NYC and Bridesmaid BOC.

Miss Campfire's Picture
Miss Campfire, Seattle, WA Age and Occupation: 26, Researcher, Counselor, Student Fiance's Age and Occupation: 29, Software Developer Manager Engagement Date: January 14, 2012 Wedding Date: September 2013 Venue: Sodo Park About Me: I'm currently a graduate student in mental health counseling, and I work at two super-awesome jobs. I love dinosaurs, shoes, macaroni and cheese, and fancy dresses. I love to cook and bake, and I'm very excited about getting crafty. Mr. Campfire and I met totally by chance at a party of a mutual friend, and the rest is history. Together we're planning a wedding that is lighthearted and sweet, featuring a ridiculous amount of lights/lanterns and some delicious food!
About Miss Campfire

We sent out our save the dates in January, and today I’m going to share them with you!

The inspiration for the save the dates came early—it was actually one of the first things I found while perusing Etsy just days after getting engaged. As our plans began to take shape the inspiration that we liked the most seemed more and more like it would work with our wedding.

Pretty Paper: Save the Date Reveal :  wedding save the date seattle stationery Il 570x066

From He Saw Sparks on Etsy

The string lights jumped out really quickly as being our primary inspiration. It worked particularly well with the venue we ended up picking (and was part of the reason why we went with Sodo Park in the first place).

Miss Road Trip's Picture
Miss Road Trip, Tallahassee Age and Occupation: 36, Writer, Artist & Bookkeeper Fiance's Age and Occupation: 47, Accountant Engagement Date: September 30, 2011 Wedding Date: November, 2013 Venue: Honey Lake Plantation About Me: Born in Louisiana (I share my birthday with the state, which I think is pretty cool), I'm a Florida transplant who has (mostly) stopped trying to escape the state and surrendered to its particular charms. I believe in the power of creativity, cocktails, (parenthetical asides), and laughter (usually at my own expense). Riding shotgun, Mr. Road Trip is a Nebraska native who still hasn't gotten used to the Florida version of "winter" but loves woodworking as much as I love paper and paints. We're a couple of sci-fi and gaming geeks who always break for wine tastings. Our wine-a-plenty morning wedding will be small with lots of DIY touches. And lots of bacon.

Who Says You Can’t Go Home?

May 23rd, 2013 @ 6:40 am by Miss Road Trip

No, we’re not considering the Jennifer Nettles/Jon Bon Jovi collab for our wedding song (though that might be a fun lark, and certainly not the most inappropriate song choice ever).

During our recent venue hunt, I had a most surprising feeling overcome me: I almost missed being a member of a church.

I mean, really, if you’ve got a “home church” and it’s got a fellowship hall, you’re all but made in the shade as far as venue is concerned.

Mrs. Lyre's Picture
Mrs. Lyre, Philadelphia Age and Occupation: 31, Librarian Fiance's Age and Occupation: 29, Government Employee Engagement Date: November 11, 2011 Wedding Date: January 2013 Venue: Atrium at the Curtis Center About Me: I’m a book loving, photography obsessed, artsy/crafty bride to be, who was dating all the wrong men, until I met the right one, and where one story ended - our new life together began. He’s a video game loving, quirky t-shirt wearing, movie quoting geek who stole my heart, and welcomed me into his. Together we are a happily co-habitating couple, who live in South Jersey, and are planning a wedding in Philadelphia in January 2013. We love to cook, share a bottle of wine, and watch way too much TV; we laugh all the time, don’t sleep nearly enough, and cannot wait to begin our lives as husband and wife!
About Mrs. Lyre

Our caterer, Cescaphe, is known near and far for their exquisite cocktail hour. Although calling it a cocktail hour is a bit misleading. It’s actually an hour and a half, and during that time, as our ceremony space was being flipped into our reception space, Mr. Ly and I snuck off to take some pictures while our guests got to enjoy more food than they could imagine. We really didn’t want to miss our cocktail hour, and we tried desperately to get there, but we managed maybe 20 minutes of the hour and a half. We took some family photos, and of course that takes time to gather everyone. We spent some time in our bridal suite—which was also packed to the brim with hors d’oeuvres and samples from all the stations. Cocktail hour was held in the same foyer area where the guests entered before the ceremony. I don’t have many professional pictures, and without our own personal experience, I am relying on our guest photos and their commentary to tell this part of our wedding.

I hadn’t mentioned it yet, but I had some very special bee guests at the wedding. I was so lucky to have Mrs. Pain au Chocolat, Mrs. Coyote, and Mrs. Fox at the wedding, and as fellow bloggers they know the importance of the detail shots—they made sure they were taking plenty during cocktail hour!

Mrs. Toadstool's Picture
Mrs. Toadstool, Obregon, Mexico Age and Occupation: 23, Research Assistant Fiance's Age and Occupation: 25, Sales Manager Engagement Date: October 1, 2011 Wedding Date: December 2012 Venue: Hacienda los Agaves About Me: I’m a born and bred Mexican girl with a severe coffee addiction, an obsession for books and an aversion for exercise. I like to plan things, so this wedding’s my dream project---I just need to remind myself from time to time that I’m the bride and not just the planner. I recently realized brown’s my favorite color as I was trying to incorporate it in every aspect of our wedding and I'm dreaming of an autumn vibe since we don’t have that around here. I’m marrying my best friend and partner in crime on the day of our nine-year anniversary! He’s an awesome, smart, fun guy who is patient, and crazy enough to spend the rest of his life with me. We’re planning our not-so-dreamy dream wedding in December in a non-traditional way and making it our own.
About Mrs. Toadstool

Toadtally Us: First look

May 23rd, 2013 @ 5:07 am by Mrs. Toadstool

Confession: I really wanted at least one or two pics of Mr. Toadstool at least putting on his tie and jacket, you know, to get a little bit of that “groom getting ready” feel. However, as I was putting on my dress, Mr. Toadstool arrived at the venue and my dad and brother informed him his bride was already a nervous wreck (seriously, I was my everyday crazy self, they were just exaggerating), so he hurried to put pn his tie and jacket, not waiting for it to be caught on camera. So no “groom getting ready” photos.

Once my mom and I pulled ourselves together, it was time to see my groom. The concept of “the first look” is not something really grasped around here. The bride and groom see each other without a lot of fuss and then proceed to get pictures—not really a special moment. However, I wanted to have that moment on camera. Hey, the photographer was already there, let’s take advantage of it.
