The hair..........thee most important thing!!

We love this hair style for Katie on the BIG day :). It is so her...half up... with a perfect lil "poof" on top :). We still have to find someone to attempt working with Katie's hair. Let's just say, God be with that person!

Our place to celebrate being married!

Here is the place of reception. The Inn at St. John's in Plymouth, MI. It's history began in 1940...so the historical elegance of the entire place is just breath taking. It has a beautiful hotel where our guests can stay. It is on a gorgeous golf course, a beautiful courtyard for pictures, and has it's own resturant. We love it! http://www.stjohnsgolfconference.com/home.html



The Two Love Bird

We loved these cute little love birds! They are classic with a little antique feel. Some how we could incorporate them.. Maybe place cards...invitations..etc.






To satisfy your tastebuds...

Here is my official cake!! Each layer will be a different flavor.

Our engagement photos!

Here are some of our engagement photos done by Abby Rose. She is so talented! Check out her blog http://www.abbyroseblog.com/. These pictures were taken downtown Ann Arbor.







Our gift to YOU!

Here are some favors we like:

One thing you should know about Katie and Sean is that they are ALWAYS chewing gum. I mean ALWAYS! They go through several packs in an hour. Here are favors that show their obsession:


Sean loves these! Since he owns Dippin' Dots ice cream, he thinks this favor idea will be cool.


Sean's favorite candy is M&Ms. You can go on their website and pick the colors you want and can choose what you want it to say on each side of the M&M. So cute.


Cute way to package the m&m's


DIY chocolate bars. Too cute.

Pretty in pink ... with a touch of green

We found these great pictures that are making me think a little more about pink and green...

Let me show you to your seat....

Some escort card ideas: (but obviously in our colors)










Save the Dates

Here is our possible "Save the Dates". Thought they were so adorable and quite original.


Flowers.......

So we officially have our florist...yay! Cool story about it actually. We found Kate by searching the web... loved her flowers...saw she was a Christian... and then later that week, my aunt called and said she knows a Christian florist that lives by her by the name of Kate. That was her! Quite a God moment! Check her out: http://newcreationsbykate.com/

Here is some of her work that we like. We love the little white flowers with pearls inside...definite must! Love the stems being wrapped in fabric with pearl pins going down the middle.






I also love cherry blossoms!!!

What the heck do the guys wear??

So... say we do pink & brown...

What do the guys wear? They can't wear the traditional black tux...right? So here is some pictures we came across...

I like a deep chocolate brown color... almost black.

But then in two of the pictures, you'll see a black tux with brown vests/ties. Hmm.... Thoughts?


I like this look... except of course in our colors. Maybe a chocolate brown tux with a light pink vest underneath....





Colors, Colors, Colors....







So... the colors of the wedding... keep changing. Went from black & pink... to orange & pink... to navy & pink... to green & pink... to brown & pink... to green & black & white... AHHH!! (can you tell we like pink though?? ) Here are some pictures that inspired us for some of these colors. Let me know what you think.

We are most likely choosing chocolate brown & light pink. The others we are ruling out for one reason or another. But I'd still love to hear your thoughts.





I'm kinda new to this thing....

Hey All! This is Emily... Katie's sister. I know she doesn't have time to "blog", so I will for her. Can you tell I am excited for this wedding? I love all the fun details that come with planning a wedding. In fact, to show how much I love it... I just spent the last 3 hours blogging and googling and searching for wedding pictures... on a FRIDAY night!! So... I hope you enjoy the following blogs. It will be a little bit of me... a little bit of Katie & Sean. But since we are like twins, I pretty much am Katie. ENJOY!
