…and they look fabulous! Even better than I had expected. I am so happy with how they turned out, and I’m thankful that they were so easy to personalize and order. If any of you ever need any save the dates or invitations or anything, I highly recommend Wedding Paper Divas.

Here are just a few snapshots to give you a sense of how they look.

I love the little calendar in the corner! The calendar is definitely what sold Mr. Parasol and me on this particular template for our save the dates. It was simply too adorable to pass up!

The pictures also look wonderful. They’re so sharp and colorful! And I love that Mr. Parasol and I were able to include so many snapshots from our life together.

On the reverse side, there was space for Mr. Parasol and me to include a short description of how we met and fell in love. While everyone who’s being invited should already know our story, I’m glad that we could fill the blank space with something useful and fun.

So now that our save the dates are here, we can finally send them out and really get this wedding ball rolling! Once these go out, I feel like there will be no turning back—not that I would want to or anything! Mr. Parasol and I are planning to make our address labels this weekend (and I hope no one judges this as too tacky or anything), and then we’re hoping to mail our save the dates early this week. More than anything, I can’t wait for our guests to start getting these little beauties in the mail.

In other (brief) news, I wanted to post a picture of Mama Parasol’s fabulous mother-of-the-bride dress. I sent her an email of one that I had seen and really liked, and she bought it almost immediately. And we’re so glad she did because she looks amazing in it!

Isn’t this dress stunning? Mama Parasol is going to look so beautiful. And best of all, she loves the dress!
