What We DIY’d

Simplistic and romantic with a hint of whimsical Photo Table Cards Instead of the typical, simple, tried-and-true, bi-fold table cards with names and table numbers, we wanted to personalize each one. What better way to do it by including each guest’s photo on theirs? We had 162 guests at our wedding and even we were […]

The name tags/place cards are all made. This took WEEKS to make. What you don’t see is how personalized they are with magnets of each guest’s face holding each of their cards up on a metal board. It’s amazing how the affair of 160+ people can still feel so intimate. We feel like we had […]

Hey, friends. We’re doing a poll to figure out how many rooms we need to reserve at our preferred hotel. So tell us: Check out the list of hotels in the area here. Our number-one choice is DoubleTree Hotel by Hilton (because it’s the closest to the venue and it’s pretty fab). We got a […]

Help Us Pick Our Wedding Song: The (Crazy, Funny, Awesome and Completely Random) Suggestions
Posted on September 16, 2012 Leave a Comment
When we asked our friends to suggest first-dance wedding songs at our engagement party, we didn’t know what to expect. Clearly, we should’ve known better… “Dirrty,” “Sabotage,” “Welcome to the Jungle”… We are not equipped to dance to these classics. And obvi, our first dance will likely not be “Macarena,” “Nuthin’ But a ‘G’ Thang” […]

Ysolt went to Chelsea to meet up with friends and snapped a photo of our old apartment. So many memories with this red door… including the time Ysolt dropped her keys through the grating and Jesse saved the day by climbing underground to get ’em. Ysolt knew then that he’d always be her hero.
