We love getting Kirstin’s sweet little email letting us know that our feature is up, she is wonderful and and her posts on the blog just make me smile :D

Hey Kirstin- if the whole Weddings Unveiled gig thing doesn’t work out (haha yeah RIGHT! It’s only one of the coolest jobs imaginable! ;) ) you can come design blog collages for me! :D

We’ve been featured! We’ve been featured!!!!

I was practically hopping up + down when Kirstin, one of the lovely ladies over at Weddings Unveiled, emailed me to tell me that Heather + Tyler’s beach nuptials had been featured on the blog!

I love Weddings Unveiled! It was definitely THE go to source for when Michael + I were planning our wedding, and we are so thrilled and honored to have been featured on their site. Who knew a few years ago that it would happen to us, huh? :D

So hop on over to Weddings Unveiled and tell them how much you love them too!

Thanks ladies! We are so excited and completely overjoyed. We look forward to working with you more! :D :D :D

That means it’s time to brew some hot apple cider, plan holiday parties, spend time with loved ones, and start sending out some Christmas cheer!

I can hardly wait until end of November when I can start sending out my Christmas cards. I love these cards- they are so festive! We’re sending out the “turtle doves” one this year so be on the lookout in your mailbox! :D

If you would like to order some Christmas cards, please email me or call to place your order. Deadline for card orders this year is December 1, 2009.

Cards have a pearl shimmer finish. $85 for sets of 25.

Please reference the card name when placing your order.

Here it is finally! I have just now gotten it to the point where it is all put together! :D

I needed the space to be cheerful and, of course, to be reflective of our style. I think I achieved that! It just makes me happy to spend time in here. :D

We hope some of you will come by and see us sometime and eat some fresh baked cookies and enjoy a lollipop!

I don’t even know how to describe how much I love you. :D

The most appropriate way to describe my relationship with Etsy’s website is such: have you ever seen the movie “10 Things I Hate About You”? Well, in one part of the movie a girl is describing her love for Shakespeare, and she aptly puts it as “We’re INVOLVED”.

Yep, that’s pretty much how I feel about Etsy**. ;)

When I have a spare moment to myself, when i’m not shooting, editing, or blogging about shooting or editing (:)), i’m surfing Etsy.

Take a look at these great finds. I love these for fall weddings! AND, if you’re interested, i’m linking the picture to the seller’s Etsy store so you can click and go right to it!

Happy shopping, and I hope to see some of these at your upcoming weddings! :D

il_430xN.87795989These green quartz earrings are stunning, and at $48.00, are you kidding me?

il_430xN.88516374HOW CUTE is this?! I love it when a groom is stylish too, and this seller has TONS of awesome bow ties and ties for guys. Ready for this? $10.00!!!!!!

il_430xN.88295824I love letterpress. And this vintage letterpress invitation proves that you can have custom invitations made without the high cost associated with custom letterpress. $2.75 a piece! It kind of reminds me of one of my favorite books, “The Giving Tree”. :)

il_430xN.58932411LOVE these. Custom ring bearer bowls, or you could have them made for any other reason under the sun. $44.00

il_430xN.89645789Place cards printed on recycled paper. And at $1.65 a piece, you could definitely afford to have a cute one printed for each guest at the wedding. A nice favor. :)

il_430xN.89766358Ok so I am HUGELY in love with headpieces right now, I love hairbands and fun little things like this that I wear all the time, and I have a lot of brides asking about where to get them. ETSY! This one is $40.00 and is ADORABLE! You can find more great ones too, just type in “headpiece” or something like that. :D

il_430xN.89739321You know you want one. $65.00 :) Click there now!

I encourage you to scour Etsy, along with antique stores, yardsales, craft shops. You would be surprised at how inexpensive and absolutely lovely some of the finds you will discover!

I love DIY projects, and DIY weddings. Please, do not hesitate to contact me! I would love to help!
