one month to go....

I realize my blog has kind of turned into "all about the wedding," so I'm sorry for that, but the good news is, it's almost here. I can't believe how much I have to get done in the next month, but I will say seeing everything come together is making me really excited. I honestly can't get over the fact that we've been engaged for a year now, it's insane, this has literally been the fastest year of my life, but it's also been one of the most exciting. So, thanks for sticking with my guys and I promise to write about something other than the wedding soon. :)

wedding wednesdays {our invitations}

I wanted to share a little sneak peek of our wedding, the invitation. I labored over the design and Jacob's mother worked feverishly on the printing and paper. I'm really happy with how they turned out and people seem to like them, so that's nice. The design is a little indication of how the reception will look... but I'm not going to give anything else away.

have a lovely weekend.

Jacob is in Maryland this weekend for a wedding, and I'm home with the buddies, so I'm thinking lots of girl time is ahead of me. I see wedding stuff, bravo tv, rose, hunger games, magazine reading, and nail painting in my future. Nothing wrong with that.

Around the web:

1.I NEED THESE NOW. I love Roald Dahl.

2. I think I'd like to fill my closet with about 20 of these sweaters for fall.

3. Such a charming wedding, and lovely photos from Kate Miss.

4. Some great ideas for a new wardrobe.

5. Seinfeld posters. They're very refreshing!

Elegantissima Typography

It's always a great day when I receive a package from Princeton Architectural Press, and today this little beauty was delivered. Elegantissima Typography is a collection of Louise Fili's work over the last 40 years. There's a little bit of everything in this book, from logo to package design, and it's truly lovely to look through!

wedding wednesdays {escort cards}

Our ideas for escort cards have changed a few times, because there's just so many cute things you can do. I think we've gotten to an idea that's going to be beautiful and interesting, but I'm not going to tell you what it is, just know, it's good.

happy weekend!

This weekend Jacob and I are going to be taking our engagement photos. I know, it's a little late right? Well, we could never agree on a place or a theme, and I finally got to the point where I didn't care. We don't have any nice photos together and I want some, so I'm looking forward to getting a little practice this weekend for all those wedding photos we'll have to take in a couple of months. I'm also excited because the weather, despite being rainy, has gotten much cooler, I'm sure it won't last, but I'm enjoying it for now!

Incase it rains:

1.Taking inspiration from this lovely engagement session.

2. Super cute etsy shop.

3. This adorable tea cup and saucer.

4. And finally, my friend {and wedding planner}, Andrea, had a cocktail featured on Style Me Pretty, photographed by our photographers Jade & Matthew!

wedding wednesdays {signage}

Right now, I've been working on a lot of the paper goods and signage that will be hanging around the farm during the wedding. Jacob's mom is working on calligraphy and wood pieces, and I can't wait to see everything. I think the details are what makes a wedding or any event special, it's that thing people will be telling there friends about, so I think having little messages all over the place for people to read will be really special. It's amazing to get to this point and start seeing things come together. Finally after thinking and talking about everything for a year, i've started seeing finished products and I'm super excited!
