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.

Chugga Chugga Chugga

… That’s the wedding train, which just keeps on coming, even though I would really like it to slow down for a minute!

Hive, I’ve been such a bad blogger, and I’m so sorry. I can’t complain about being super busy, because I’m the one who decided to move three months before the wedding, but I have to say, it’s been NUTS! This past weekend, we did the official move, and now we’re working on settling into our new place. My wedding dress and shoes were among the last items to make the trip over in my car—I just couldn’t bear to put them in the moving truck!

Sorry for the crappy phone photo. I couldn’t even begin to tell you where Mr. Panther’s fancycam is. Hopefully it’s somewhere safe!

Anywho, even though I have absolutely no free time to work on wedding stuff right now, that doesn’t change the fact that our wedding is now less than 100 days away and shit needs to get DONE. I’m so, so, so happy that I outsourced the invitations instead of trying to do them myself, because they’re finished and heading toward my new home as we speak!

Kristin from Twin Ravens Press is awesome and sent us some photos before mailing them out. I’m not going to share them until our guests receive them—don’t worry, that’ll be fairly soon!—but I just have to share a sneak peek:

Mmmmm, aqua edge painting. I am absolutely DYING to see everything in person, and can’t wait to share it with you guys!

Hopefully I’ll be blogging more often very soon. I miss you guys!

Anyone else fall off the wedding train temporarily? How’d you get back on?

I fell off when I decided to take a week off :)
I was too immersed into planning and needed a break! The 4 month mark seemed like a great time, because no one was asking for a deposit or any projects that were time-sensitive.
I’m fully back on board now, though!

Definitely fell off when we started looking for houses. I want to smack fomer me for waiting so long to get started (we’re just over two months away…sheesh!). Hopefully this madness will be over soon because I need to hop back on the wedding train.

I love the aqua edges! Is it too late to change our color scheme? Erm…

@Sunlavender: Yikes, you’re brave! Looking for rental houses was overwhelming enough … looking for a house to buy must be intense! Good luck!
@Miss Hyena: Hahah, probably not! :)

We are doing the same thing, my wedding is 6 months away and I’m going nuts. House hunting, packing, DIY projects, planning from 2 hours away. AGG!! I am trying desperately to stay on the wedding train, hanging on just barely.

Good work on the move! I am moving on friday and we are only 2 months away! How far away did you move? I am moving across the country so I am nervous to bring my dress in my car (we have 2 dogs traveling with us). I am thinking about shipping it (which also makes me nervous)! Any advice??
