Love Story Books

I have to thank God right now. He had to lead me to find this great article. Chris and I have a very unique story. Especially from my side of it. I want to share it with our guest, but I don't wnat to take a large amount of time at the wedding to do it. These books are a great idea. While I had thought about doing the books before, this confirms the need to have them. I hope it will be a great keepsake for all our guest to take home.

After the wedding and honeymoon I plan to create one giant book with pics from dating to life as newlyweds.

Got Cold Feet?

I just found the cutest thing: cold feet socks for the groom. While I won't be making a pair for Chris, I think this is quite cute. I definitly think this could be a very marketable item. Now what to do for the woman...mayby cold stockings?

Mekala recently launched a new venture called Tie that Binds where you can purchase the cute label for these socks. Her new adventure is all about details, all about creating a wedding brand that you can thread through every element of your day. Definitely worth a visit.

And here are the step-by-step instructions for the Groom’s Socks Gift…
