This all changed after we were reunited at a New Year's Eve party thrown by a mutual friend (The lovely Dani Hagstrand!). We exchanged numbers at the party and agreed to "hang out" soon. A week later, we went on our first date (well, we didn't know at the time that it was a date. We thought were just "hanging out") and we've been together ever since!
Now, going back to that first paragraph: We LOVE movies! We own far too many, we talk about them daily, we find enjoyment in checking out trailers for upcoming films online. We've both even worked on a handful of film sets. It's pretty obvious, we absolutely have to have a movie-themed wedding.
A sort of secondary theme will be "vintage." (No, I'm not talking about wine.)
Vintage -adj. 1. of lasting interest and importance; venerable; classic 2. representing the high quality of a past time
That's the kind of vintage I mean.
I love throwing themed parties and, well, weddings are basically gigantic parties. I'm pretty excited to find ways to incorporate both themes into our wedding. I've got some ideas but am open to more! Perhaps I'll share some of those ideas in the future. At the moment, I'm hesitant to share too much because I don't want to spoil all of the fun! One thing I will share is that we really want to get married in a movie theater. We are having trouble finding one that works for us both in looks and price. Any help or advice in this department is welcome!
The colors for our wedding are chocolate brown (which, to my dismay, has all of a sudden become very trendy) and ice blue with touches of red.
So, yeah, planning a wedding a ton of work. It's nerve wracking, frustrating and overwhelming (just like all of the books said it would be!). But I'm having a lot of fun putting together the theme!
