Build-Your-Own-Adventure Invitations

Oh how I love wedding planning! Well, sort of...

It's fun to choose things. I get so excited. It's our dream becoming a reality and it's amazing. But it sure can get frustrating!

One adventure that we will be participating in shortly involves our invitations. I was going to order invitations from David's Bridal. But stumbled upon Hobby Lobby during a 50%-off-wedding-stuff sale. They have beautiful "Do-It-Yourself" invitation kits and the sale made 150 of them come to a grand total of $40.59! Of course we cannot forget that printing is not included in this price. So if you are gutsy enough to try to print them at your desktop, it's really cheap (but scary!). We're going to have them printed. But even after doing so, it will be cheaper than ordering invitations!
So grand wedding tip #1 from me: Do-It-Yourself Invitations!

The part of this that I'm REALLY looking forward to is the cake tasting.. YUM!! Sadly, that won't take place until around Spring Break so I'll have to find joy in the other thrills of planning!

Really I just can't wait to see my groom! :) It's been too many days (30) since I saw his face last and it seems to be too many days (13) until I see it again . I'm going to need lots of consoling when he's gone on deployments. He told me the other day that I was not built to be an Army wife. I think it's the truth but obviously God has a sense of humor! :)

Happy Saturday!
