Quick Update

Lately, I have been working on the Fall MiniBook that I bought at Elise's shop. Here is the first page, more on that this weekend. 

I have also finished the CD and Thank You cards for all the friends and relatives that came to our wedding, they should be receiving that by now. 

And I have also started our mini honeymoon album...

I'm totally busy with my classes and work that I can hardly focus on my hobbies. Anyway, I always find a little bit of time to work on it. 

 

Oh, quick update on the previous post. It looks like Fall went back to where he was before appearing a few weeks ago... it's sunny and hot all day long :(

Wedding Wednesday

I want to share with you some details of my wedding, little things that one cannot appreciate in regular pictures. All of the pictures were taken by friends and relatives.

Wedding Wednesday

(on Tuesday, I couldn't wait any longer)

And the big day arrived. July 9, 2011. We got married!

It was a wonderful day that we enjoyed until the end. Our family and friends were there supporting us on that big step we were about to make. And we did it. And it was great. And we are now living together in Texas.

This is the step by step of that day (pictures taken by my friends and relatives):

 

 

* Following the Spanish tradition, the Best Man came to my parents' place and read something nice to me before giving me the bouquet.

* The priest was a friend of mine, he let us pick everything for the ceremony and apart from that he wrote our story in a poem, the longest and nicest poem I have ever read. Thank you so much, Manel!

* It may be weird but nobody took pictures during the dance... I'll post some when I received the official ones :)

Wedding Wednesday

...on Friday :)

Yes, I know I'm two days late but I'm super busy: group projects, several translations every week, preparing material for the kids and so on.

However, I have had time to make appointments for the week V will be here and I can happily say that I'm finishing the wedding invitations!

Next step: drawing the "how-to-get-there" map and designing our first personal cards.

Lots of things to do... still work in progress in this matter. Anyway, patience and late night work.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Wedding Wednesday

Yes, I know today is just monday but I have a lot of news to share so I'll do it in different posts. Today's post is about wedding bands. Why is it so complicated to pick one?

I have been checking some sites and all I have been able to find is this:1. Diamonds 2. Simple 3. Graved

Does that mean that I have to pick my style among those three? What if I don't like none of them? What if the one I like is so expensive that I cannot afford it? What if... Can I stop saying what if?

Does my ring have to match his in material or style? Do we have to agree on what we want to put on our fingers for the rest of our lives or is it better that each one of us pick what one likes?

I'm in trouble. My head is a completely mess. I don't even know what I like. Too much information, maybe.

I should take it easy.

Do you want to help? Tell me which style you like the most :)

Have a nice monday!

Wedding Wednesday

Hi, all!

I feel sweet-tooth today so... I've been looking for wedding cakes.

First of all, I have to say that I have found some nice wedding blogs that I'll share with you very soon because today I'm gonna introduce you only one: Style Me Pretty. It's the perfect inspiration for your wedding! Me, I went straight to the "cakes" category and found a few that I liked:
However, the one I like the most for the moment is this one:
Isn't it the cutest? I have to be honest, I have it in my "Wed-Journal" but I don't remember where I found it. My old computer passed away and with him all the sites I had bookmarked. So, if anyone knows where I found it, please, tell me.

Going through all those delicious cakes has make me want to bake my own: my first brownie! I'll let you all know how it turns out.

Have a nice day!

Wedding Wednesday!

Wedding Wednesday!

Bueno, bueno... he tenido que contratar a una ayudante: mi madre ;D Está de baja por que le han operado de un bultito que tenía en la palma de la mano pero le queda la otra mano libre y, además, está que se sube por las paredes del aburrimiento. Acostumbrada a no parar en todo el día... Bien, ella será la que llame para pedir presupuestos/precios, sólo tengo que dejarle apuntado los números de teléfono.

Ahora, necesito vuestra ayuda. Quiero utilizar unos marcos de foto, como para fotos de carnet, de este estilo pero en color plata
y no sé donde encontrarlos, ¿alguna idea? Necesito unos 80 y no importa si no són todos con el mismo grabado.

Gracias y feliz miércoles!

Wedding Wednesday!

Hoy puedo afirmar que ya tenemos la carta de color para la boda. Después de darle muchas vueltas, éstos son los colores elegidos:

Y, ¿por qué éstos y no otros?

Bien, pues porque durante esta Semana Santa he tenido tiempo de bloggear bastante y el blog French Charming me llevó al de la fotógrafa Yvette Inufio cuyos coloros empolvados y la dulzura de sus fotos me cautivaron. Aquí tenéis una muestra pero os invito a pasearos por su blog o su tienda Etsy.
Feliz miércoles!

Wedding Wednesday!

Habemus restaurante!!!

Yesterday I was watching TV when, suddenly, my subconcious asked me "Why are you still looking for restaurants if "EP" is the only one you've liked and going to like?" I send an email to Valéry right away telling him that and when he came back from work we picked the date.

Next Friday or Monday, I will go to talk with the priest of the sanctuary next to the restaurant to see if it is available for that day. I hope he says "yes". It is a very nice place. If that one is not available, I have some others in mind, just in case...

I'll keep you informed!
