Mrs. Panther's Picture
Mrs. Panther, Atlanta GA/Westport CT Age and Occupation: 24, Web Writer Fiance's Age and Occupation: 25, Music Recording Engineer Engagement Date: March 13, 2010 Wedding Date: July 2011 Venue: The Inn at Longshore About Me: I'm a total goofball who goes through life at a breakneck pace, trying not to knock anything over. I tend to fall in love with everything I encounter, but more than anything, I love my two little kitties, Bela and Josie, and my big kitty, Mr. Panther! As a wannabe crafter, I'm still waiting for my artistic talents to emerge. (Any day now, really.) In the meantime, I spend my days eating anything put in front of me, buying every pair of shoes I see and absorbing wedding inspiration from every inch of my surroundings. Mr. Panther and I are hardcore New Englanders planning Connecticut nuptials from our new home in the Dirty South, and can't wait to mix our newfound love of classic Southern charm with some modern city touches.

Sweet Completion

OH MY GOD, THEY’RE DONE*. THEY’RE BEING MAILED TOMORROW. PRAISE THE LORD.

Check out the cute postage combo we ended up with! My original calculations from the USPS site were apparently incorrect, and this is all we need:

*Except for the four envelopes that need new address labels and the two envelopes that need to be re-routed to new addresses. Thanks a lot, people who added to the guest list at the last minute, and other people who moved without giving me advance notice!!!

I’m going to reveal them as soon as I’m sure most people have received them. Soon, I promise!

How did you feel when you finished your first major wedding task? Did you take a moment to recover, or move on to the next task right away?

I just sent my save the dates a couple weeks ago and I’ve backed off a little, but there’s still SO much to do. I plan to give myself a break over the holidays and then throw myself into things hardcore after the new year.

Oooh, exciting! I mailed half of mine yesterday and am still waiting for a few more addresses and then the rest go off. It really is such a great feeling of relief. I can’t wait to see you reveal the final product!

I took way too long to recover lol! It wasn’t necessarily a good thing either because it meant squeezing a lot into a little time.

Oooh weirdest feeling ever after I sent my save the dates out! I was so lost - I wasn’t sure what to do with myself now that I had all this free time!
