A Wedding is Nothing Without a Marriage

February 12th, 2009 @ 5:14 pm by Ms Fondue

I hope you all will forgive my absence, but it has been a rather emotional and stressful month. However, you readers have been so great to me that I feel you deserve some sort of explanation.

Soon after the New Year, Mr. Fondue expressed some concerns with our relationship. He had been acting moody, which I thought was due to holiday stress at his job plus…

Happy 2009, Everyone!

January 2nd, 2009 @ 3:43 pm by Ms Fondue

I hope everyone had a great holiday season!

I have several cool things to share with you in the coming weeks, including bridesmaid dress shopping (although I’m still waiting on some photos Mama Fondue took) and my fauxtobooth epiphany. However, I’m still recovering from New Year’s Eve, so all you’re getting today is some photos of my New Year’s party decor.

Most of it was based…

A New Toy

December 29th, 2008 @ 3:28 pm by Ms Fondue

I had been resisting the series of ring shots the other Bees have been posting, but I can’t any longer. My big gift from my parents this Christmas was a Canon Digital Rebel XT. So, of course, I had to practice using it, as I have never owned a dSLR before. And what is there to take pictures of other than my cats and my…

Review: Wedding Dash 2

December 29th, 2008 @ 8:15 am by Ms Fondue

One of the gifts I received from my brother and his girlfriend for Christmas was a game called Wedding Dash 2. I’d never played the first one, but if you’ve played any of the Dash series of games, then this one is fairly similar.

You play as Quinn, a top wedding planner. She is competing to have the honor of planning a very exclusive wedding. She…

The Gift of Blurb

December 26th, 2008 @ 4:25 pm by Ms Fondue

I hope everyone is having a good holiday season! Now that Christmas has come and gone, I can safely show you the photo books we made for our parents using our engagement photos.

We used Blurb to make the books. This was the second time I have used them — the first being a wedding gift to my bridesmaid Becka and her husband of photos I…

I’m Dreaming of a White Wedding

December 19th, 2008 @ 10:59 am by Ms Fondue

Many brides, at some point during their engagement period, will have a dream (or nightmare, usually) about their wedding day. I am no exception.

Shortly after becoming engaged, I had a dream that my parents decided to hold the wedding at this itty-bitty church in the middle of nowhere, and I didn’t know about it until the night of the rehearsal. The majority of dream was…

Something Red…

December 18th, 2008 @ 4:15 pm by Ms Fondue

Before I even went dress shopping, I knew I wanted to wear red shoes under my gown. This, in part, is fueled by pictures like this one from our photographer, Kate Crafton:

My other criteria involved having a 2-3″ heel (I’m 5’1″ and need all the help I can get) but for the shoes to not be ridiculously uncomfortable. I had the hardest time narrowing down…

It’s All in the Neckline

December 17th, 2008 @ 11:24 am by Ms Fondue

Back in September, my bridesmaid Becka (you may remember her from the day I went gown shopping) was in Knoxville visiting family. She and her husband moved to South Carolina a year or so ago, and we rarely get to see them. So Mr. Fondue and I headed over to East Tennessee to hang out with them. (Too bad I didn’t know Miss Cheese then!)

It’s a Thriller, Thriller Night!

December 16th, 2008 @ 10:34 am by Ms Fondue

About five months after Mr. Fondue and I started dating, we went to Six Flags Over Georgia with my bridesmaid Frances and her husband Joe for Fright Fest. I have many, many fond memories of this trip.

The Fondues with Frances on the Superman coaster.

Six Flags normally plays their theme song and some other things over their speakers, but for Fright Fest, they were playing Halloween-type…

Our DIY Videographers

December 15th, 2008 @ 1:51 pm by Ms Fondue

After much discussion, budget crunching, and back and forth, we have decided not to hire a videographer. You may remember that we were debating it, but we just couldn’t work the company we wanted into our budget and didn’t want to settle for less. (For you Nashville area brides, we were considering FocalPoint Cinematic, so check them out if you are looking for a videographer.)

For the Forgetful…

December 12th, 2008 @ 6:23 pm by Ms Fondue

I usually carry around Tylenol in my bag, just in case a situation arises where I need some. However, as my luck goes, whenever I have a headache, I will usually remember that I had removed the bottle the night before because Mr. Fondue needed some. As someone who never has exactly what she needs when she needs it, I love the idea of having…

Co-Worker Conundrum

December 12th, 2008 @ 9:32 am by Ms Fondue

I plan on starting to address invitations in about a month (is it almost time for that??), so we are in the final stages of finalizing our guest list. The list has been decided, for the most part, for months. We are to the final category of people: co-workers.

I think Mr. Fondue has narrowed down which buddies from work to invite, but I am stuck.…

Like several Bees before me, I will be making cards for our guests with instructions on where to go to upload their digital photos after our wedding. I have also included a handy link to it on our wedding website.

I had originally been working on integrating a photo gallery on our wedding website. Guests would be able to view photos, comment on them, upload their…

A Blast from the Past

December 10th, 2008 @ 10:32 am by Ms Fondue

Many young girls dream about their wedding day and what they want it to look like. Some may imagine marrying in the same location their parents did. Some may try to picture what their future groom will look like. Me? I had it all planned out.
