EXACTLY 1 MONTH (!!!!!!!) TO GO TO OUR WEDDING.
I can’t believe how quickly time has flown… it seems that a little over a year ago we were engaged and thinking we had tonnnnns of time, and now suddenly there’s just 4 weeks left and we realise there’s still lots to do, and not much time. Ahhhhh! It’s also really starting to hit home that in just 1 month, I’ll be a “Mrs”. YIKES! I was thinking it was scary to have to commit your entire future to just 1 person. I mean, what happens if you get bored of each other or something?! Then I realised we’ve been together for so so so so long, and are still super blissed out to be together, so I figure we are all good 😛
We’re getting more and more excited each day now. A year ago it was more like “Oh man, we should start planning our wedding aye..” and now it’s “Aiieee we’re getting married!! CAN’T WAIT!”, which we can’t help but say about twice a day to each other – would probably drive everyone else INSANE but we just can’t stop saying it 😛
Anyway, a couple more little bits and bobs for the wedding below. Actually, Chris and I did none of this.. it was all bought and organised by Mum and Dad. Heh! They know our taste very well so we’re fine with them doing most of the figuring things out.. and it also makes things easier for us since it’s hard to plan it all remotely. Since our theme is a fairly neutral palette (soft champagne and creams against deep emerald green), a lot of stuff goes with the theme.
It’s really nice to see everything shaping up, and all the various pieces falling into place. Most are sorted, and we’ve been updating http://chrisandbev.weddingwindow.com here and there to reflect everything. A lot of people have been asking what happened to their official hard-copy invitation.. well, they haven’t been made yet – OOPS!!! Technically the invitations are meant to be sent out 2-3 months before the wedding, especially one with international guests.. but we’ve been horrid and slow and will only finalise it all this week.. which means international guests are going to get the invitations 1 week before the wedding. ARGH! I did send out “Save The Date” e-vites to all international guests though.. so here’s hoping no one drops out and/or doesn’t already have their flights booked :X
Oh, and for Photography and Videography, we’ve gone with Moomedia. They’re rated one of the top photographers in the country and we immediately liked Andrew. It’s costing a bomb but photos and videos are forever so it’s the one thing I don’t mind spending on 🙂
Bridal store that’s in the same building as Bridal Veil boutique.
Love all their colours, basically exactly how I want our wedding to look!
Our wedding invite 🙂 Embossed florals on pearlescent card, tied
with a green silky ribbon. Except they’re still being printed – we’re LATE!
Pen stand to go next to our guestbook (which we haven’t gotten yet)
Ring pillow for our pageboy
In Moomedia studio – they’ll be doing our wedding photography & video

congrats, so exciting! the wedding cards are lovely, they’re from that shop above?

How do you know who’s coming to the wedding if the invitations are being sent now, and you usually have to wait for RSVP cards to come back? Or did you get RSVPs via email?
A lot of friends have already told us they’re coming, cos I sent out “save the date” invites via email!

Thank you sweetie! everything’s coming along which is so nice to see 🙂
Everything looks fabulous and doesnt look like your planning late…or rushing at all 🙂 But a month! wow! A month??

Did you pick the wedding bands and I miss them or did you not pick and show them….
Mum and dad did heaps of pre-preparations, so fortunately we can do a lot of the stuff online.. but it’s really only this month that we’re going crazy, eek!
Will post bands in a sec 🙂
Is it really a month to your wedding? It only seems like you announced your engagement recently. Wow, time really flies when you are having a good time.

I’m sure this 1 month countdown would be both exciting and memorable! Enjoy! I do have friends who actually missed “planning” their weddings after the actual day .. 😛
Errr i don’t think I’ll actually miss planning it, hehe. Though I’m sure I’ll miss the wedding day itself once it’s over!
This is so exciting!!!
I am toooootally looking fwd to the wedding now, yay!:)
Wow ONE month! To think I thought I was running out of time with 3 months to go.
Congrats and good luck with the rest of the bits and bops 🙂
We are naughty.. we really should’ve had a lot of this done ages ago, especially our gown + suit! Eek…
