2) Love & Marriage by Frank Sinatra (my brother and I are huge Married With Children fans)
3) I’m a Believer by Smashmouth (I’m a big Shrek fan)
4) Can’t Help…

Many of my parent's friends are from Russia and the Ukraine as well. We want all of our guests to have a great time and hit the dance floor so we've hired a band that can play both Russian and American music; not to mention a mean rendition of the Gypsy Kings and chair-raising hora!
I LOVE how these flowers and candles look but I don’t remember where I found this picture. The knot? Xanga? A florist’s website? Let me know if this is yours!

Teach/Coach @ private schools in LAEngagement Date: March 31, 2006Wedding Date: November 3, 2007Venue: Radisson HotelAbout Me: I'm a bookkeeper who failed high school algebra. I'm currently living in Los Angeles, literally a street over from where I grew up with Mr. Kiwi, my honey of three years. We have a jumbo mini-dachshund (seriously, he's huuuuge), and we're planning an autumn themed wedding on a shoestring, paid for by ourselves. The wedding date is my late grandma's birthday, I needed her there somehow, and that seemed like the best way for us. I can't believe I'm a Bee! I couldn't be more proud!
Last night C and I were working on our guest list. We felt like gods with so much power. muhahahaha!
- We have a “DEFINITE” list which are people we have to invite.
- Then we have a “NOT COMING” list which are people we have to send invites to even though we know they’re not coming just out of courtesy.
-Then we have the “MY FAMILY”…

The Save the Dates are FINALLY going out tomorrow morning. I printed the envelopes this weekend - they came out okay, but not great. I probably should have hired a calliigrapher but didn’t want to spend the money.
I went with the kissing close-up design with a calendar and circled the wedding date with a red sharpie. The cards came out nice and were very…

I came across these fantastic favors on WhiteAisle.com. You can provide them with any text you want and they have tons of fonts and ribbon colors from which to choose.
