Breathe…

May 12th, 2007 @ 2:51 pm by Mrs. Plumeria

This is it. I’ve been engaged for what has seemed like such a long time; I can’t believe that in a short amount of time, Mr. Plumeria will be my husband. This past week has been a whirlwind of activity, and I’ve felt like I barely have time to breathe. But, in this rare moment of quiet (the calm before the storm? Hehe), I can…

Finally, A Veil

May 11th, 2007 @ 12:00 pm by Mrs. Plumeria

I visited Debra of Dori Anne Veils again one day a while ago, not to buy another dress, but to pick out a veil from a selection she’d just gotten in. (I don’t mean to gush, but I really can’t recommend her enough — not many vendors will offer a great price on a gown, plus throw in a free veil of choice with purchase…

Programs = DONE

May 10th, 2007 @ 6:37 pm by Mrs. Plumeria

Things are falling into place fast, thanks to a crew of great friends and family who pitched in (some on super last-minute notice!) to help put favors, etc. together this past weekend. I’ll shut up now and show the pics…I’m really happy with how these turned out!

Master Procrastinator

May 10th, 2007 @ 2:32 pm by Mrs. Plumeria

So, even as I race to complete everything on my to-do list, there have been tons of things I realize that I’ve missed. Among those forgotten tasks is choosing what to wear to the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. And then, the realization that I don’t have anything that I really want to wear to those events slowly dawned. Did I really need to buy a…

This Just In: Favors!

May 9th, 2007 @ 4:49 pm by Mrs. Plumeria

Nowadays, favors seem to be more or less an unnecessary item, and I think those who choose to pass them out do so because of a personal preference to have them, rather than in response to a rule of etiquette. Most people are realizing that the inherent worth of the typical favor usually isn’t much, due to the high volume that needs to be purchased,…

C Is For Cookie…

May 9th, 2007 @ 9:34 am by Mrs. Plumeria

… and also for Costco, where Mr. Plumeria and I ended up buying them. We got a few hundred, so each guest will get one of these buttery, flaky treats (though by the time I’m through with them we might be a just a few short… they’re yummy; what can I say?). We’re planning to pass these out directly after the ceremony, as our guests…

Easy, Breezy DIY

May 4th, 2007 @ 3:16 pm by Mrs. Plumeria

So, working down the list — I’ve “figured out the guestbook stuff” and here are my solutions.

For the ceremony: the standard, run-of-the-mill guestbook. I purchased the Celine Countryman silk-covered guestbook from Jenni Bick Bookbinding in platinum blue. Clean, simple, functional, well-made, and not overly expensive = an easy choice for Miss Plumeria. I may dress it up a little bit to look like some of…

The Reality of It All

May 3rd, 2007 @ 9:28 am by Mrs. Plumeria

It’s hit me rather suddenly that I am less than two weeks away from the wedding day. I’ve been spending pretty much every waking moment, aside from work, with Mr. Plumeria, and it really tickles me when I realize that soon, he’ll be my husband! When I look at him, I’m just overwhelmed inside by the fact that I get to marry such a sweet,…

Get Me To The Church on Time

April 25th, 2007 @ 3:26 pm by Mrs. Plumeria

Ever since I was little, I’ve thought that the church Mr. Plumeria and I are getting married in was beautiful. While we attend another non-denominational church in the Bay Area, several people we’ve known have gotten married at this one, and it’s absolutely gorgeous. Some of our dear family friends and neighbors, whose son is our ring bearer, got married here once upon a time,…

Bridesmaids’ Gifts… Check!

April 20th, 2007 @ 9:28 am by Mrs. Plumeria

I know I posted earlier about giving my bridesmaids some nice jewelry, but in the end, the idea somehow didn’t appeal to me as much as it had when I first began wedding planning. I have collected some random smaller items so far to give each of them, but what I needed most was something nice to put them in and which would serve as…

Normally my posts are pretty general, but this one is specifically for you NorCal brides out there who are just starting out on, or are in the middle of, the gown search.

A Huge Sneak Peek

So originally, I wasn’t planning to post our pre-wedding bridal portraits up for all to see. But then, after thinking about it a little bit, the most important person has already seen me in my dress, so why should I care if others do as well? Consider this post a sneak peek to the actual wedding day… at least wardrobe-wise.

Portrait-Ready Hair

April 10th, 2007 @ 9:29 am by Mrs. Plumeria

I haven’t yet had a hair trial for the upcoming wedding, and I didn’t have one before our bridal portraits last week. In fact, I didn’t book my hair appointment for the portraits until the week of! But despite my tendency towards procrastination, my updo turned out fine — and served as a pseudo hair trial, if you will.

I called The Spa at Stacy Monroe’s,…

Okay, Me Too

April 3rd, 2007 @ 3:36 pm by Mrs. Plumeria

And here goes… six weird things about Miss Plumeria (but isn’t it all relative? ).

1. I sound somewhat like a little girl when I talk (voice not content, thankyouverymuch). Unless I have a cold… then I have a husky sexy woman voice. Not.

2. I was so shamefully awkward during my junior high years (braces, telescope glasses, large Disney character T-shirts and leggings with knee socks…
