nathalie and cory are tying the knot!

more stuff done / invitations are almost ready

i ended up caving in to those gorgeous yellow heels. unfortunately i had to return them due to an obvious defect on the side of the right shoe, but other than that, they were beautiful. i can’t wait to get my replacement pair.

we took today off to take care of a bunch of errands, wedding-related and not. including what we did today, i couldn’t believe how much we’ve been able to get done in the past two weeks. i returned a bustier that didn’t fit me correctly (already got a replacement in the mail thanks to a great deal on ebay), cory purchased his shoes at dsw (he also got a new pair of casual shoes), purchased cory’s suit at men’s wearhouse, got our bonne maman raspberry jam favors in the mail (adorable little 1oz jars so that people can take them on the plane if needed), ordered a custom stamp at baumgarten to use as a finishing touch on the invitations, sent out a check to our awesome florist (hi, ellen!), and made an appointment with our caterer to go over the final details that we’re still 100% confused about.

here’s a little peek at our wedding invitations. huge thanks goes out to my gilah press + design peers for some final critiques and a special thanks to whitney for cutting everything down for me on the big, scary paper cutter. (i think i finally get it!) since the photos were taken, they’ve been stuffed into their envelopes but still need that final rubber stamp touch and their mailing labels:

invitation card
three colors printed on on mr. french’s cement green backed with waste not paper’s chocolate brown

rsvp card
two colors printed on mr. french’s cement green (front) and mr. french’s whitewash (back)

envelopes
waste not paper’s chartreuse green with vintage postage stamps and buff scorebak sticker paper for the mailing label. heart monogram will be hand-stamped onto the back.
