darn church!

well, i experienced my first wedding planning heartbreak. the church i had my heart set on will absolutely not have a wedding during a holiday weekend.

i'm taking this as a blessing in disguise for a couple of reasons:
1. an early reminder that where/when/how we get married really does not matter.
2. that church would have been pretty expensive & i reject our cultures idea that weddings should cost more than some families make in a year.

i'm in love with personalized DIY ideas...{from here}

this couple used this picture for their save-the-dates. besides the cute coffees and clever book, the newspaper was digitally edited to have a picture of them and another of their cat.

this process is a blessing, and my heart will not be broken again. if something doesn't work out, it's because there is something even better waiting to be discovered.
