I’m Married!

We took our entourage bowling after. And an ivory dress doesn’t hit the blacklight like I had hoped. My feathers look cool though!

About Mrs. Milkshake

I’m going to turn to the only people that could possible have any fathom of an answer for me. We are having 82 guests, and an hour between the ceremony and the dinner (all at the same location). Right now our hors d’oeuvres menu looks like this, which includes fancy ones and platters, but I’m wondering if it’s overkill. I have no concept of what 82 people could eat in…

Snohomish

August 3rd, 2008 @ 12:35 pm by Mrs. Milkshake

I dragged Mr. Milkshake to Snohomish, a small town boasting antique stores near Seattle, one weekend in the wicked heat to check out their antique stores for random bits of furniture. I walked away at the end of the day with a sweet vintage hat and a rekindled desire to use a milk glass cake stand at our wedding. Most varieties are white, but it…

So Ikea Has These $1.99 Vases

August 1st, 2008 @ 11:54 am by Mrs. Milkshake

Planning our wedding entirely by myself has had its advantages. Using our own money for the wedding enables us to call all our own shots and allows for us to avoid many discrepancies with my own family as well as my future family. However, the value in delegation is something that no bride should do away with at the two-week-to-the-wedding-mark. I asked my mom to…

Some photos from one of my bridesmaid’s mini photo session - a considerably abbreviated version of any and all dress orgies the rest of the women in my life went through. She’s so gorgeous!

Thank you Zappos for 365 day returns, free shipping, free return shipping, and for overnighting my order without me even expecting it. The UPS guy carried a huge box to my doorstep and said, “that’s a lot of shoes!”

Hair!

July 8th, 2008 @ 2:40 pm by Mrs. Milkshake

I’d originally been a little wary of shelling out the dough for either a traveling hair stylist or a morning at the hair salon, but I guess it’s a necessary evil. While I will enlist a few friends to do our makeup, I guess our hair (or at least mine) should be left up to the professionals.

What I’m looking for is a bright, modern or…

I so badly want these Nesting Lotus Bowls. The first set is from Gumps at $95 for eight bowls. The second is handmade with love by Whitney Smith at etsy. She even makes them in white! The only problem is that the only way I could feasibly register for everything I want online is to go through myregistry.com, and I don’t know how to really decode…

Free Magazines for Me?!

July 4th, 2008 @ 12:29 pm by Mrs. Milkshake

Who knew that I could get all this, from simply starting a wedding registry. Not all of them are necessarily this summer season, but who cares! All of us here, dating, engaged and married alike, all know how expensive bridal magazines are.  I was thrilled to get a measly heart shaped candy dish when I registered at Crate and Barrel, but Sears in Canada gave me visual reading material!

Mama Milkshake No. 2

July 1st, 2008 @ 1:37 pm by Mrs. Milkshake

Yay! Mama Milkshake number two (Mr. Milkshake’s mom) bought two hot little numbers for herself. It’s so nice to see our mothers in dresses, so here’s her very own tribute in the few photos I was able to snap of her. This particular store in Vancouver’s Chinatown had tonnes of dresses that were in the $50-99 price range and alterations seemed to be complimentary! They…

A Dress for the Rehearsal Dinner

June 25th, 2008 @ 9:28 am by Mrs. Milkshake

I thought with the final decision on the bridesmaid dress, we’d seen the last of my dress orgies…but I was wrong. There are more dresses in the world for me to try on! And it turns out that Mr Milkshake is a pretty darn good photographer!

This blueish-green one below is perhaps even more stunning in this photo than when I tried it on. The color is gorgeous and…

I Love Line Art

June 18th, 2008 @ 5:25 pm by Mrs. Milkshake

Our work dress code mandates that men wear ties, and the other day Mr. Milkshake came home and tossed his around my neck.

 

Maybe it’s just me, but I feel like every wedding photo I see nowadays involves tux + necktie, rendering the pricey tux to look like a plain old suit. Although we’re most definitely going to go the bow tie route, and this post would have…
