Boutonnieres and more!

Yesterday some of my bridesmaids, a friend, and I made the boutonnieres for the groom, the groomsmen, and the fathers. They look amazing! We used fabric to make them and we save a ton of money. We also used the same flowers to make the throw-away bouquet. It all looks so good and it will add a lot of color to the wedding.

The best helper in the world!!!

Nancy is the greatest in the world! She has done so much for the success of my wedding. Today she spent the whole day with me getting all my invitations ready to mail out...even though it was all last minute. Not only that, she made this wonderful board with my engagement pics for her blog. I love it!

Feather Hair Clip

I found this beautiful hair clip that I am planning on using for my bridal shoot this following Monday. I think it will look beautiful while wearing the white dress. These little puppies are a little pricey so I am planning on making some on my own.

My engagement pictures

Tony and I took our engagement pictures last January and they look so beautiful! The first one is the one I will be using for my save-the-dates. My favorite ones have not gone live on his blog so I can't post them yet. Our photographer Jonathan Canlas did an amazing job and I can't wait to see how the wedding pictures turn out. He truly is a talented photographer. Check out his blog to see his wonderful work.

My Chief...

Today Tony got the greatest news thus far in his career: this year he becomes a USCG Chief. This is a great accomplishment and I am so proud of him! He is so happy he can't stop smiling. He is going to be such a great chief because he is such a great leader. Year 2009 is going to bring us great change into our lives; I graduate, Tony becomes chief, we get married, I begin my career...it will be so great!

This is such a great picture. Tony is driving that small boat.
