Showers of Blessings

I am truly blessed.

My mom and sisters through me my first bridal shower and it was such a BEAUTIFUL shower! I love them so much, they worked so hard and made it such a special day for me. It was such a strange feeling to be that girl opening the presents in front of everyone. I loved every second of it!!

Sarah, my sister-in-law, made me a cookbook of all of our family recipes. It is such a creative gift, love it!!

The Bridesmaids! (all except for Christie, we missed you!)

Justin and I are so grateful and overwhelmed by everyone's generosity! We took everything over to the apartment and found a spot for each thing. It's starting to look like home!

One Step Closer to Getting Married!!

The invitation process was so painless! I found an AMAZING deal online for the invitations and response cards. We printed everything ourselves and there you have it!

We used Rach and Ry's inkjet printer....

and spent an evening printing the invitations, response cards and labels...

Very happy with the final product!

We spent Saturday evening assembling the invites and they are stuffed, labeled, stamped and ready to go!

Thank you all for your help! Invitations will be arriving in your mailboxes soon!

Let them eat CAKE!

Sweet Temptations is a very appropriate name for this bakery!

We came hungry and left satisfied! I hadn't made up my mind completely on what type of cake I wanted for the wedding, but before we left we were very comfortable with the decisions we made! The cake samples were delicious and the staff was very helpful and accomodating. We are so excited to see the end product the day of the wedding! I won't give away everything, but I will tell you we have chosen 4 different flavors, so the cake is sure to please everyone!

The shop has a large variety of styles to choose from or you can bring in a print out of your own to mimick. This is the print out I gave to the staff and they are sure they can customize my cake to look the same!

I am still looking for my cake topper, I would prefer a snowflake as seen in the picture above, so I am scouring the internet! Suggestions are appreciated!!
