Rustic {French} Elegance

{Images via Whispering Pines} 

I mentioned before that I am trying to add some subtle French touches to our wedding & I think these items from Whispering Pines are a perfect find.  The zinc bistro place card reminds me so much of Paris where many things are written on chalkboards like menus & prices at the flower market.  These place cards are like the item I did not know I needed until I saw them!  I think I would use them as table numbers & signage for the escort card/food/dessert/cake/guest book/whatever-else table{s}.  And the birds?  What can I say.  I am a sucker for cute little birds & would use them as part of the centerpieces or as decorative accents as needed on the aforementioned tables. 

It's been awhile since I have given any update on our wedding.  I like to distract you with pretty things since...there is not much to update!  But:

1.  I tried on a dress.  Yep.  Just one.  I loved it.  I am going to try to keep an open mind & look for others, perhaps even go to a store & try some on.  My mom asked if it was exactly what I was looking for & truth be told, I had no idea what I was looking for.  It fit.  It was pretty.  I looked great in it {by the way!}, sooo...

2.  Finally, a long weekend where Rich & I are not crazy busy so we can scope out the RI venues we like.  We are heavily leaning towards a certain place in Maine, but again...open mind.  I am getting antsy.  Antsy, I tell you!  I want a date please-and-thank-you! 

Happy long weekend!
