one more year...

here i am again, one year later and only 7 blog entries ahead of where i was last year when i promised myself i'd be better about this.  i want to blog.  so badly.  but i can't find the motivation when life is so...in the way.  i'm getting married in a couple months.  thats exciting.  and scary as hell.  not the being married part, that party im looking forward to, alot.  its the actual act of getting married that freaks me out.  the planning and the money and the family and the everything.  we should've eloped.  in fact we've been saying this since we got engaged but neither of us has given in.  weddings are weird, i always thought i would love being a wedding planner.  in fact, i still kind of do; i guess its the financial aspect that bugs me about where we are.  however, im quiet and understanding in the fact that this wedding isn't and shouldn't be about the material, its about him and me and god.  thinking of it like that makes it much easier.  so i thought i'd make this post about all things wedding and some of my favorite diy's ive come across while planning!  thank The Lord for pinterest.  the ceremony and reception will be held in my mom and stepdad's backyard...my childhood home.  this alone makes me happy.  under a stunted mulberry tree that is absolutely beautiful.  and so, that being said; the atmosphere will be casual with lots of rustic and vintage decorations, candles, the obligatory mason jars and lots and lots of lights!!

 

chris and i are adamant that everyone feel as comfortable and as much like family as possible.  this is one of the diy's i definitely want to incorporate.  i love this little saying and pallets are abundant in my life right now.  perfect!

  

so i say rustic but what i really mean is country.  haha.  its no secret that living in north carolina makes it almost necessary to use things like hayrolls, sunflowers and mason jars.  but thats totally ok, because those are just a few of my favorite things.  hayroll with floral initial.  love it.
