Words of wisdom cards!
I won free post cards in a giveaway the other day and figured I should get something wedding related! So I picked out Words of Wisdom cards! I thought that it would be really awesome for our friends and family to be able to share their wisdom and advice to help us in married life! So I would like to share you the design I ordered!
I found the little poem on a wedding forum and I loved it so I may have "Borrowed it without asking... Sorry who ever really made this poem I don't know who you are so I cant give you credit!
You could use these words of wisdom cards as an alternative to a guest book! BUT we are doing them in addition to a guest book.
Other used you can use postcards for are: Save the dates, Thank you cards, RSVP cards, Invites (for over sized post cards), Programs, Menus, and MANY MANY more options!
I am hoping to win another set or two so I can use them to make thank you notes.
If you had postcards to use what would you use them for? and do you have any ideas that I didn't come up with?

Let the crazy begin!
Wednesday I start summer term. I am only taking 8 credits so I didn't figure it would be too crazy THEN I found out that it is a 11 week course crammed into just 8 little weeks... AHHH and on top of that both of my 4 credit 4 hour classes are BOTH on Wednesday!
Ok now I will post what you are all really here for! So Remember my post that I cut the guest list down to 130 and we would be able to have the wedding at my aunts amazing property?)I cant even remember if I blogged about this but if I didn't you now know!)
Why you ask well lets just say the dress is too short and makes me look like a potato. The straps are too short making the bodice sit at a strange spot on my chest and it just gets worse from there with no figure, loose dress everywhere but my bum, itchy and basically it is not worth all of the changes that would have to be made to make this dress wearable... So I will keep with my amazing Ouma dress
Now I want to know what is going on with you guys! Where are you in the wedding planning? And how many more days to go? 417 more LONG LONG days for me to go, but I couldn't be more excited! and Remember keep an eye out for a pretty awesome giveaway that will be posted THURSDAY!
I will be at Chemeketa from 1pm to 10pm with a short break in between classes... What was I thinking?
So while I am hoping to have time to post I may not have as much time as I would like to devote to my blog. BUT I will try to post at least once a week!
Thursday I will be posting a GIVEAWAY! So keep your eyes peeled for that! I have another vendor spotlight I am working on! If you missed the last one I posted you should check it out Here!

Well that is not working out my nice lovely cut down guest list spiraled out of control.... We are now thinking it is going to be 170 guests but I will be able to have it at Historic Deepwood Estates! YAY! Now we just need to book them! If you don't know about Historic Deepwood Estates you can check my post about them out here Just ignore the part about the bowling alley..
I am still dead set on having snow cones at the wedding and I will not budge on my Gerber Daisies! I love my short Ouma dress with its layer of tulle and amazingness! But my pretty lace mermaid dress will not be making an appearance at the wedding *Sad face* (the giveaway win)

Our Save The dates!
As I mentioned in a previous post I WON FREE SAVE THE DATES from magnet street! I mean how exciting is that!
So here is a picture of our Save The Date Magnets! I have to say I love them! But don't mind my crappy paint job. I love all you readers but I feel like I share enough of the wedding with you on the blog I kinda want the website for just the invited guests!
So I had a hard time picking out what invites to choose there are so many options on just about every site that it makes choosing just one a lot of work! I looked threw the pages of magnets until I saw this one and I loved the bright colors and that it was a little fun, but I have to admit that I did have about 10 other tabs open of other save the dates that I liked.
But I love that fact that they are magnets people can just throw them on their fridge and not just get thrown away! or shoved in a drawer some place!
Have you ordered your save the dates yet? If yes How did you choose yours, and If no what are you looking for in a save the date?
