Wedding Blog

Well, there has been so much going on, I don’t even know where to start. Forgive me for the lack of posts… it’s not that there isn’t anything going on… there’s too much going on and it’s been happening so fast I haven’t even had a chance to let the dust settle, let alone blog about it! But I got this wonderful package in the mail yesterday… and I just had to write about it.

As I’ve always said, blogland is such a wonderful place! While surfing blogs over the summer, I discovered one of my favorites, dear diary: martawrites, and met the amazing Marta. The blog alone gives me oodles of warm + fuzzies along with tons of inspiration. Not only is Marta a fantastic writer, she’s also a designer and crafter. While browsing her site, I noticed some really great notebooks (my favorite is the Dear Diary) and stationery that she’s created. I’m not giving it all away, but let’s just say I purchased a few for some special ladies in my life.

Marta also makes wonderful “Bride Books” that she can customize with your names and wedding date. Each page is adorned with a sweet, not cheesy, quote on love and hand bound with ribbon. I showed Mr. Canary our book last night and even he was excited. We’re going to use ours as a guest book, but it’d be perfect as a shower gift or just a journal between you and your future husband to share your thoughts and dreams.

One of the quotes in the Bride Book. There is one on every page!

Marta is a dream to work with. We communicated frequently via email and she was so patient with helping me select swatches and colors to complement my wedding colors and tone. So if you’re looking for something special for a stationery lover for the holidays, check out Marta’s wares… they’re too sweet to pass up!
