I'm getting married in 82 days!
LOTS of exciting things going on! Last week my summer class ended, and I am taking the fall semester off so I have 5 months ahead of me with no school to worry about! So what am I up to? Getting ready for the wedding of course!!!! In this post I talked about our cakes, but I have some new followers so i'll go back to the beginning. :) Spencer's sister is making our cakes, and we have decided to have 5. Why 5? Because I like uneven numbers and 3 just didnt seem right! None of the cakes will be too big. The one larger cake will be a 3-tier lemon vanilla cake. The other cakes are:1. mocha-coffee, vegan chocolate cake
2. strawberry or orange poppyseed (Spencer's favorite)
3. caramel dulce-de-leche with sea salts
4. undecided. :)
I also ordered the following brooches from seller Mykonos, and can't wait for them to arrive at my door! I imagine it will still be another week since they are coming from the other side of the world, but the seller has been wonderful and very attentive to answering all of my questions. I highly recommend her! Aren't they beautiful!?
We have found 3 others which match some of these almost exactly, so it should be fun to see where things get placed and how they all look together! Some may not be used, but if they aren't maybe they will be put somewhere else during the wedding! After the wedding I have planned to sell them all off as a batch and save a bride the hassle of having to track them all down, plus gain a bit of a profit off of my hard work...but Sarah made an awesome suggestion to turn them into napkin rings so I always have them! I think its genious and I may do just that!
I also just got my invitations created this weekend and ordered last night! It took me 3 whole days to create the pattern and make all of the elements for the invitations but i'm so proud of how they turned out!!!
This is our invitation...

Our Registry card...
I am so excited to see them in person! I ordered from Vistaprint, and got 50% off the whole order! They will be printed on a pressed linen paper and I think we may go buy some champagne colored envelopes so I can start getting them addressed to send out. EEP!
Plans for this week are to work out, eat healthy and maybe go lay outside once or twice because we are hopefully getting out engagement photos taken this week! Also, on saturday i'm celebrating me and my moms birthday with my mom, step-dad, sister, brother-in-law, nephew, grandma and Spencer! We're renting a pontoon boat for about 5 hours and going out on the lake! Then we will all come back, shower and go out to dinner somewhere :) I can't wait! I am so excited for all of the fun!
Hope everyone has a fabulous afternoon! You can find me at the pool!
