inspiration #14: sandwiches.

imagine this photo series. but with me in a wedding dress.

what could be better?!

mrs. c introduced me to the sandwiches at the laurelhurst market, and i am convinced that these would be the perfect thing to enjoy with all of my guests on my special day. and at only 7 bucks a pop, there is plenty of budget left over for the PBR toast. i'm not joking.

inspiration #13: my mother's bridesmaids

i recently uncovered a gem in my parents' house. a box containing ALL THREE bridesmaids dresses from my parents' wedding. the color, the lace, the cuts... the dresses are bitty, but oh so special. there is so much possibility in store...

just a bite...

a taste of what's to come...

a word from the groom #2: blog feedback.

"i love spooooookloooos! smells like sulfur!!!"

it's great to have a partner in planning.

inspiration #12: bliss.

so i have been blog-stalking mrs. french for some months now. she is an amazing, beautiful woman who happens to spot the beautiful things in our world that i most appreciate..

she and mr. french work out at my (wonderful) gym, and i couldn't be luckier that they are often there at the same late-morning time slot that i love to frequent.

the frenches happen to be expecting the next lovely (lady!) french, and through one of her recent posts, i stumbled upon her post of photos to this lovely site... which i can't get out of my mind.

i keep talking of a barn. a big party in a big (not too smelly) barn. perhaps this yellow delight of a space is our wedding venue? we'll just have too see what sort of sweet talking the durkin ladies can manage....
