Mrs. Barrettes, Tumon, Guam/Napa, CA Age and Occupation: 29, Dancer Fiance's Age and Occupation: 31, Licensed Building Contractor Engagement Date: November 16, 2008 Wedding Date: October 2010 Venue: V. Sattui Winery About Me: I'm an East Coast girl, living on a tiny little island in the Pacific, twirling, leaping, and shimmy-ing my way through life, and now, wedding planning! I'm equal parts nerdy and cool... okay, mostly nerdy. I love satin bows, red lipstick, black & white graphic anything, the shine of sequins and the sound of a champagne "pop". My favorite books are The Portrait of a Lady, by Henry James, and Tender is the Night, by F. Scott Fitzgerald. I can also conjure a pretty good Patronus Charm. I started my appreciation for good red wine while traveling on the high seas, and it's only fitting that my passion for wine drinking led me to my Napa-bred honey. We bonded over bottles of Cabernet on my oceanfront porch and haven't looked back since. We're sealing the deal at a winery in the Napa Valley on a 'perfect ten' of a day!

It's All in the Details : wedding guam save the dates Picture019

Well this just came out so darn cute I had to show it off! This is our postage for our save the dates!

I mentioned previously that I wanted to find ways to infuse our island life into our winery wedding. I am a sucker for inanimate objects dressed in bride & groom gear, so when I saw the graphic on a local greeting card at our bookstore, I knew it had to be mine. I was sure I could find it online, but I bought the card anyway, just so I could feel better about snagging it. Thank you, Zories Only!

I uploaded the image onto stamps.com, chose the postage, and voila!

What is your favorite little detail?

Love the stamps! We brought some of our destination wedding to our at-home reception by way of table signs related to the destination with photos and personal stories. The project took forever but we loved it.
