Today we got a big box in the mail.   Our invitation paper is officially here!! I'm so excited to get started on my invites. I know I've been saying this with basically every check, but this makes it feel so much more real. Ahhh!! I also got an email from Carnival. I had emailed them last week because we booked Early Saver, which guarantees the lowest rate. They had a lower rate published for our cruise/room type and so I sent in a form and got our rate lowered, too. So yay- that's exciting! I'll continue to stalk the website to make sure we don't miss out on any lower fares as well. Sunday we registered at Target and it was actually a lot of fun. I can't wait to register at Macy's on the 15th now. We had a really good time and had a lot of fun imagining what our future home will look like and stuff. Last but definitely not least, our flowers are ordered!!! We're getting a 23-piece package from Etsy seller ShayesBridalBoutique and I love love LOVE our flowers.  My bouquet will be wrapped in teal and ivory (in the pic above, imagine the green ribbon as ivory) and topped with a starfish brooch.  All other bouquets/boutonnieres/corsages will have purple ribbon. I know it's not one of my wedding colours, but it is my favorite colour. And blue & purple is my favorite colour combo. AND Chris liked it better than the brown, so whenever he has any kind of opinion about the wedding I take that as a good sign.
Things are coming along swimmingly!!

Though my bank account is slowly draining, I love making wedding purchases. Nothing like going to the mailbox and finding a package- however small- with wedding goodies in it. The wedding stash I currently have in our bedroom keeps getting bigger. It's lovely. 
I'm pretty excited about this VS "newlywed" bikini bottom I purchased from another DW Knottie.
Just a close-up shot of the "newlywed" detail. I love that the crystals are in blue!
I plan to use this in my hair for the ceremony, and then hopefully on my bustle for the reception. It might become a bouquet charm, though. We'll see!
