save the date!

         Save the dates are being sent out today!!! I'm so excited (and partially relieved)! I can't wait for our guest to get them and I hope they enjoy them! We worked hard cutting out the magnets, applying the graphics ( I had some awesome help from Chris and Elizabeth in our graphics department at work!), cutting out the address labels, and applying them to the envelopes. I've checked over the addresses about 6 times... Hopefully they will all get to the right place! I've posted some pictures below. My next project will involve some green moss and the letter "B" as well as some burlap as our door accents at the wedding!!

Results of DIY Save the Dates and Invitations...

magnetic glimpse

Here is a quick glimpse of our Save the Dates! Rod's one request was that they be magnetic. I can't wait to get them all cut out, applied to the magnets, and sent to you guys!! That's they one downfall to saving money on them... I will be spending my weekend at work using the cutting mat. Good thing I like doing stuff like that :)! So excited about them!

boy with a registry gun...

This past weekend we accomplished 2 things! We registered at Belk and we got our edited engagement photos back! Woo hoo!!


We both had tons of fun registering. Rod got a little carried away with the registry gun, however. He decided to scan a wine cooler (because we are huge wine connoisseurs???). He also accidentally typed in 41 food processors and when she printed out our final sheet we somehow had 83 on there?! Yeah... And this was just Belk!!! Rod thought it would only take about 30 minutes and that we could knockout all 3 of our stores in one day. (HA!) We definitely spent 3 hours just in Belk. This was our first stop so hopefully the next two will go much quicker!!! 


Our engagement photos are in!! You can view them here on my Flikr page! We have all the rights but if you want any printed just let me know and I'll email you the form you need just in case anyone asks! 


We are already under the 200 day mark! August 18th will be here before we know it! Ahhh so excited!
