Meet My Fiance

I've been given official permission to use Fiance's real name on here! I don't know why I never did before. I think I may have just wanted to make sure he didn't feel like his privacy had been invaded or anything. He had never mentioned that I couldn't... I was just being courteous, I suppose!

Save The Date Sign

Embarking on my engagement photos, I decided I wanted to make one of those adorable signs I've seen in so many save the date samples to use in a few of my pictures. While working on my budget, I thought it would be a good idea to limit the amount I spend on this project, since having the pictures done professionally isn't cheap in the first place (not to mention buying new clothes, getting my hair done, etc.). So as far as the amount I wanted to spend on the sign, the conclusion was: as little as humanly possible.

Scouring the internet for tutorials, I decided I would buy a piece of scrap wood, paint it, then weather it.

Well, that didn't quite work out as I had planned.
