BHLDN

It was a very happy Valentine's Day and now it is officially less than three months until the wedding...Wow!

Yesterday was also the opening of the online wedding store BHLDN (pronounced 'beholden'), and can I just say.... dreamy. Though would you expect much else from Anthropologie? Here are a few pieces I'm lusting over:

Hotel Indigo

This past weekend Travis and I had the privilege to stay at the Hotel Indigo before it opens on February 17th. Some friends of ours helped make the hotel a reality, and hosted guests for two nights in an effort to get feedback on the rooms, experience, atmosphere, and any quirks that might be lurking. Being that Hotel Indigo is one of the main hotels for wedding guests we couldn't turn down the offer.

Our findings? Pretty fabulous.

Pictures of defining local icons are blown up to adorn the walls, making it feel like the hotel was actually meant to be in Baton Rouge. The downstairs bar/restaurant has huge picture windows, which becomes a prime location to sit for a drink and watch the sunset over the river.  But what really sold it for me was the shower heads. Yes that's plural. For someone that often has to crouch under a too-short shower head that has mediocre pressure let me tell you.... I was sold!

Though they don't open until February 17th everyone is more than welcome to book their room for the wedding now. For more information check out the Hotel Indigo website and our accommodations page.

Inspiration

 It has taken months of paging through magazines and getting lost in blog after blog, but when it comes to this wedding I know exactly what I want.  While I'm not sweating, some might be a little concerned of how it will all materialize on the big day. For a glimpse into what I'm dreaming up in my head, check out some of these images from my favorite wedding blogs.

Projects Begin

With 2011 officially here and only 4 months until the wedding it's about time I get started on all those time consuming, hand-made projects for the big day. And what better time to do that than a week of vacation back home. We tackled the sign-in tags and thank you cards, and I'm happy to say they actually turned out how I envisioned. Of course these were much more timely than slapping a book on the table or a pre-packaged set of cards but hopefully our guests will have some fun with the Mad Libs style sign-in!

Next up: Invitation production.

Save the Dates - Printed

Save the Dates are finally printed! They arrived perfectly in their box, exactly how I had imagined/designed them to be. So exciting! We'll be working on the addressing of them this weekend and I hope all of you have as much fun receiving them as I did designing them. Now on to the invitations...
