Mrs. Cucumber Sandwich's Picture
Mrs. Cucumber Sandwich, Washington, DC/Cape May, NJ Age and Occupation: 28, School Counselor Fiance's Age and Occupation: 40, Collegiate Athletics Engagement Date: March 27, 2010 Wedding Date: October 2011 Venue: Congress Hall Hotel About Me: I am a school counselor who spends my day wrangling children and my nights attempting to be creative with wedding projects. My enthusiasm for each of these activities far surpasses my skill. Thank goodness Mr. Cucumber Sandwich is there to pick up the pieces and be the voice of reason about my DIY tries. I have an obsession with terrible romantic comedies (‘From Justin to Kelly’ anyone?, anyone?!?), competitive Scrabble play, and hot dogs. I could eat astronaut ice cream for every meal and can’t seem to resist buying more shoes. Our wedding is going to be a true hodge podge of semi-destination, tradition, Yuengling, New England charm, with just a dash of ‘Jersey Shore’ thrown in. It has been six years in the making and I can’t wait to marry my best friend.

Much Too Much

July 1st, 2011 @ 9:13 am by Mrs. Cucumber Sandwich

The ring! Mr. Cucumber Sammie did such a great job picking out my ring that I have a hard time believing he did it all by himself. I always told him that I wanted a simple, round diamond solitaire. I thought it would be easy, but I guess I was wrong. He went back to the jewelers’ three times just trying to decide what diamond to pick. I have to say, those three times were worth it.  It is perfect!  Enough babbling…let’s get to the ring.

Please forgive my embarrassing attempts at being artsy.

Any tips on taking ring shots? Don’t you just love diamond solitaires?!

Love it! I have a princess cut solitare though so maybe I’m a little biased.

And I might have taken some artsy pics too…

Lovely!

The best, and I do mean the BEST, tutorial on how to take engagement ring shots is from weddingbee pro back in 2008.

I’ve had that bad boy bookmarked since before the Mr. and I got engaged and I’ve forwarded it on to every friend that’s gotten engaged since. It is the best ring shot tutorial out there hands down.
