I threw this set together on Polyvore last night because we have switched up our colors! See the handsome brown tuxes? They are the cause of it all. Mathew and I went to check out tuxes for him and his groomsmen, and he pointed out a brown one, and we both really liked the idea. And I just couldn't have black bridesmaid dresses anymore - I knew that. I know that people say "people say it's a faux pas, but those people are wrong," however, I am not against it because of any rules, I just am not partial to black and brown together.
Somehow these brown tuxes led to us not being able to have any form of purple or red... but I really like light blue and gold, so I should be ok. I think it's all going to look really nice.
$68 dress!
I saw this at Nordstrom for $68, not even on sale! Isn't it lovely? I think it's a great deal if you want something simple. You can always fancy it up by adding a broach or appliqué, wearing snazzy gloves, a veil, and some eye-catching jewelry. The simplicity of it can be great for the right wedding.
Ping Pong Globe Lights
I found this project yesterday, and I just might do it!
I love globe lights, but they can be very expensive, especially if you want a bunch of them.
With this project, you can use any color of Christmas lights, and the ping pong balls diffuse it very nicely.
dessert table
Mathew and I were talking yesterday about possibly having a dessert table. He wants cake, I want cupcakes - I also would love other deserts, and so would he, such as donuts and candies. Lately I have been drooling over pictures of macarons (not to be confused with macaroons, which are something else entirely). I am going to test out a recipe soon!

He also has a recipe for some chocolate ones!
Plus, having a dessert table would mean I can use pretty cake stands and candy dishes! And we could probably diy some of the stuff. : )

something to do together
My sister bought us this book for Christmas. (Currently as low as $3.49 on half.com)
We started going over it yesterday. We just did a couple pages. It asked simple questions like our birthdates and what we wanted to be when we grew up.
Hopefully we'll do more soon!
It goes into more depth, which should be interesting!
So, if you are trying to think of something to do with your significant other, you should try this out. It is probably better left to more serious couples, because I can imagine having this laying around after a breakup and just being a big downer! But on the other hand, if you're in it to win it, then this will be an awesome thing to have to look back at together when you're old and senile.
Happy Valentimes!
Hope yours is great. : )
The fiance and I won't get to really do anything until Tuesday.. he always works late.. But right now I'm going to go do some of his laundry. There isn't much more I can do.. ha.
But if I think of anything nifty then I will post it. : )
