Kate: With invitations out, it’s starting to feel real!

Our invitations are out and RSVPs are rolling in! My mom is a graphic designer and after a crash course in InDesign, created our invitations. She managed to work with my requests for something modern, including bold colors but also lace. (I also really wanted belly belts.) She began with all the necessary info on [...]

Kate: Photo booth love

While our wedding doesn’t have a theme, photography is a big part of my life and it is receiving an increasingly central role in our big day. Choosing a photographer was a priority and we recently sent out our handmade save the dates, using a photo booth strip as the inspiration. I am thrilled with [...]

Kate: Treating your attendants well

We’ve all heard the bridesmaids’ horror stories: the bride that demands weight loss, chooses insanely expensive lime green dresses and asks when her Vegas bachelorette party will be held. But rarely do we hear about the brides who have done it right. So, I’d like to share with you my recent bridesmaid experience where I [...]

Kate: It’s registry time!

Steve and I spent a recent weekend working on our wedding registry. Honestly, I really never thought I’d make one. The idea of it always seemed a little presumptuous. But my grandmothers insisted that everybody does it; you have to! I suggested I set up one of those websites that allows friends and family to [...]

Kate: Check out these shoes!

I’m not sure whether I’ll actually be able to wear them, but I’ve bought a pair of heels that I’m hoping will be my wedding shoes! As I’ve mentioned before, I broke my foot last November and was in a cast up to my knee for six weeks. (Check out my x-ray below.) The day [...]

Kate: Pets in the wedding?

Steve and I got a puppy last weekend so wedding planning has been on hold. Between my job and trying to housebreak this little guy, there’s no time left for playing with color palettes or looking at flower arrangements. Deciding on a name for the pup was top priority. So I’d like to introduce you [...]

Kate: Dress … check!

As I mentioned before, I knew I wasn’t going to have the “say yes to the dress” moment. (I’m fine with that though; I had that moment with my photographer’s portfolio.) It’s not because I’m picky and thought I’d have to settle; it’s because I liked so many different dresses that I knew I’d have [...]

Kate: Venue hunting

As I mentioned in my previous post, Steve and I haven’t done a ton of planning yet. But, we’ve got a venue! We started looking at the beginning of this year and visited 17 area venues in two months. (We had a bit of a mishap while moving back here so I did this entire [...]

Kate: Engagement photos are in!

Steve and I had engagement photos taken this week and our awesome photographer, Stephen Govel, has a few teasers up on his blog already! Check them out here! We’ve done very little planning so far but being a photographer, the photos are a priority for me. (They also were the one area I was willing [...]

About Bridal Blogger Kate

Steve and I met in Washington, D.C. during college. We stayed there while he earned his law degree, then headed back north when he graduated last summer. While moving, there was a small accident involving a large bookcase which left me on crutches with my leg in a cast. I got my cast off a [...]
