Bouquet Locket[s]

July 15th, 2007 @ 10:24 am by Mrs. Lime

I blogged about a random purchase a few months ago. Here’s the explanation, copy & pasted from that entry, for the lazy.

I wanted to honor deceased loved ones in a quiet way. While, the lit candles, reserved chair, etc. work for some, it’s still not subtle enough for me and Mr. Lime. I want to honor Mr. Lime’s grandmother, who pretty much raised him, my…

I Saw The Sign

July 13th, 2007 @ 3:35 pm by Mrs. Lime

Momzilla* is insisting that the city’s signage is not clear enough [it’s pretty clear, easy to spot, and it’s off of a major road] and that guests will get lost trying to park.  The parking lot is about a one hundred foot walk to the entrance gate of the estate.  She wanted me to ask my venue to provide parking attendants to direct people to…

Tablescaping, Again

July 13th, 2007 @ 12:33 pm by Mrs. Lime

Lamest table mockups.  Ever.

- 57″ rounded corner-ed square table instead of 60″ round.
- Random red chair to stand in for my red napkins and flowers.
- Coffee can to stand in for centerpiece. It’s about the right diameter, but totally not the right height or shape.
- Absence of votive holders in 2 heights that will also surround the coffee can centerpiece.
- Vinyl wallcovering remnants used for the…

Bach to Bel Biv Devoe

Mr. Lime and I have been working on our song list.  Well, I started it (with the help of past lists on Weddingbee and a few friends’ lists), and Mr. Lime put his all into it, rocking out and groovin’ with his headphones on into the wee hours of Sunday night/Monday morning while I snoozed away.  Hey, I wake up about 3 hours earlier than he does.

Do Not Call

July 10th, 2007 @ 1:45 pm by Mrs. Lime

Apparently, you’re not supposed to call guests who have missed your deadline.  You are supposed to have a parent, other family member, or friend call on your behalf.  For us, that was about half of our guest list.  Yes, half.  220 invited, about 115 replies as of the RSVP date.  Of course I found this out AFTER I had already called, emailed, IM’ed, and Friendster/MySpace…

Shower Me With Your Love

I’m so excited, and not in the least bit scared (sorry, Jessie Spano, I don’t feel you this time). I just got an evite (yes, you heard right…that’s just how we [procrastinators] roll) from my bridesmaids for my bridal shower coming up in a mere 11 days. It’s one of the many wedding-related things going on these days that’s making this whole thing feel more…

Lime Lounge

June 15th, 2007 @ 11:29 am by Mrs. Lime

So there is this sad pool/fountain thingy at our site, directly adjacent to the dance floor. We are not allowed to float anything in it. My budget and the city say I cannot surround it with candles (even if in proper holders) since they’re kickable.

I was just going to give up on doing anything in its vicinity (we’ve got the luxury of tons of space…

[Don't] Mind The Gap

June 13th, 2007 @ 9:31 am by Mrs. Lime

We ventured downtown this past weekend to get the guys their suits (more on that later) and get our wedding bands.  All in all, it was a successful trip - suits bought, altered next door within two hours, rings bought and brought home, engagement ring steamed/cleaned/polished, and cheap dim sum inhaled - all in half a day.

This is what happens when the on-call Mr. Lime has to…

Fitzsu Fab

Much to Mr. Lime’s chagrin, I registered at not three, as we had previously agreed upon, places, but four. The ‘plus one’ being at Fitzsu Society. The designerd in me could not resist.

“Just a few items that will only increase in value over time! But they’re classics!” I exclaimed.

Alas, one key to a successful relationship is compromise. Because of our laziness, we agreed to leave it…

Lime: THE One

June 10th, 2007 @ 3:30 pm by Mrs. Lime

Honestly, for most wedding purchases and selections, I haven’t had any “THE One” feelings. I got pretty excited when I finally found our venue, but even that didn’t move me to tears…just utter joy that the long venue search had finally borne us some fruit! I guess I’m just a picky, practical, unsentimental lime.

But then…I got that feeling, twice, over shoes of all things. That…

First Fitting

June 8th, 2007 @ 4:15 pm by Mrs. Lime

Last weekend, I scheduled an appointment to get a quote for alterations to my gown.  Because this tailor is located so far from where I work (over 50 miles) and live (over 20 miles), I just wanted to get a quote while I was in her ’hood.  However, she was so knowledgeable, sweet, and reasonably priced that this lazy bride ended up leaving her dress…
