Chatham, Cape Cod - 6 months AND counting....

It's Friday - Happy day! I figured I would share with you a few things that have been keeping me busy (and away from blogging these past few months). Here is a smattering of images that have inspired my vision for our wedding on 8/21/2010 in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Some of these images are my own and others are from my vendors or my fave wedding blogs. 6 MONTHS AND COUNTING TO AUGUST 21st...eeeek!

Love lights...lot's and lot's of lights!!

Cute Idea for a welcome basket

Inspiration for placecards

Invitations - except ours will have indigo writing and indigo inside cover flap

Cute idea for guest book - poloroids!

Inspiration for some church decor hanging on the front doors - "S" & "C"

L-O-V-E this cake. I am really hoping the baker at CBI will be able to replicate it! Crossing fingers!!!

Love calligraphy

Inspiration for centerpieces.... Image from my florist

I really have to say - I have received sooo much inspiration from all the design and wedding blogs out there - I can't thank you enough! However, since it was quite a long time ago that I collected these images, I can't recall where I got all of them. I am fairly certain many are from my favorite wedding blogs, Style Me Pretty and Snippet & Ink. If you see an image here that is your's - please write to me and I will give you credit!

HAPPY FRIDAY!

Amazing kitchen...

I stopped by Lauren's blog, Pure Style Home, and stumbled upon this amazing kitchen story! Guest blogger, Brooke Giannetti from Velvet & Linens, told her story of a fabulous kitchen re-do. I love this kitchen "after" AND "before"! Something about the space is sooo inviting and almost whimsical (if it's even possible for a kitchen to be whimsical)! Enjoy :)

Before

So pretty!

After

Love the rustic sign above the window and the bread box

She infused an industrial look into this "oh so" traditional kitchen by adding these chairs and painting the lights silver, very cool.

Our kitchen is the last thing in the condo that we will be touching. Probably not until after the wedding. I will show some pictures in the coming weeks....but I am in so much envy of these images. A girl can dream can't she!?

Cold days of February...

In my dreams I am need of ideas for my second home in the tropics - these would all make the cut for my inspiration board (one day)... :-)

Check out these wicker lamp coverings...

Bamboo chairs - to die for!

Oh to be some where warm...

I heart....

Although I am sure all my readers are LONG gone...I am back and wanted to say hello. Now that things have finally settled down - home renovations are d-o-n-e and the major wedding stuff is finalized, I thought there was no better time to come back full throttle then VDAY! A time to share love with all! While I have totally been absent on this blog, I haven't stopped reading all of my faves and I figured I would share some of my favorite images out there today that are beautiful, pretty and PINK!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Wow..it's been too long!

I just wanted to quickly check-in and say sorry for abandoning the blog! The truth is, between work, home renovations (still!) and life, I was able to write the blog in my free time. Now my free time is spent wedding planning and searching the web for ideas. And I actually LOVE it! So hopefully I will be back again...for now too-da-loo!
