Plant life

I've been looking at bay trees for outside the church and my own home. I came across these Laurus Nobilis Helix a type of bay tree. I think the are very cute and romantic, i like the way there are two trunks intertwining tres symbolic for the day. Some nice ribbon and viola! but yeah, they are expensive, and shopping around will be undertaken!

hopefully i can find two nice pots to match too!

Benefit Cosmetics

So I got a parcel in the post today, excluding the customs fee I was delighted. I've put alot of weight on lately due to an bothersome under active thyroid and some medication i'm taking. I point blank refuse to spend money on clothes until i've shed the pounds or dare i say it stones!! However i can't completely not indulge in a lil retail therapy and love love beauty and cosmetics products. It's a bit of an obsession.... le sigh.

I love Benefit for the quirky packaging and innovative products, tres chic! I always buy directly from BenefitCosmetics.com as it way too expensive to buy in Ireland beauty departments. i let a squeal upon delivery, the post man must of thought me awfully silly! here is what i got, so kitsch!

I will post some reviews when i've experimented adequately.... 

Check this website out!!

This website called Mr.doob is so much fun... if you've an hour or two to kill you will be amazed, thrilled and super happy! For sure! a good friend emailed me the link and I've been doodling happily since! now make no mistake i cannot draw for *insert swear word* but i had fun taking the "pencil for a walk"

thank their mums and dads for the wicked computer programmer!  I did basic computer programming in college and found it so hard so yes, bless their cotton socks!

reason #1 why I love future hubby

He draws cute pictures on his €7 slip-ons from Dunnes Stores and especially as he writes my name on things. I reckon he could make some sweet kicks for our wedding day for himself and his groomsmen.

Meeting Photographer

So as future hubby and I are going to Sligo this weekend we are checking out a local photographer, Mark Capilitan. I really like his work and he seems like a really nice guy (he accommodated meeting us Sunday morning even though he has weddings Friday, Saturday and an engagement shoot on Sunday), i'm looking forward to meeting him. He is really reasonably priced and offers an engagement shoot as part of his package; wicked!! As an added bonus he himself is getting married in Castle Dargan this coming September where we have booked our wedding!!! This has me tres excited as he'll know where to get the good shots! anyhoos here is  some of his work from his facebook page that i particularly liked .... enjoy!

Fun Colourful Favours

How cute are these wedding favours? awesome right! They are from Kat's Krafts shop on Etsy. Colour will be a  big element on our wedding day and these would be perfect for table settings and brightening up the dining room. Plus a cheap lil memento for our guests which hopefully they would have fun guessing "Mark and Lisa" trivia while waiting for their rub a dub grub.

I will definitely be ordering next spring...

nearly ready to blog

i got my new camera today so very excited! It's only an amateur camera but i'm delighted with it; Fuji FINEPIX S2500HD. I'm only a baby beginner. First impressions are great especially playing with the macro function, i was slightly put out that there was no HD connection with the purchase but whatevas i'll survive!

i'm unfortunately waiting for a memory card from amazon... c'mon amazon, so i can't do anything at the mo! nor do i want to either as i've had to delete photos i like. I hope to get the memory card asap (or now) as I'm going to Sligo this weekend to shock horror go to mass... well i'm going to mass to check out the church the future hubby and i hope to get married in, Carraroe church. I wanted to take some photos for inspiration on how to decorate the church for the day, oh well fingers crossed i'll get a delivery in the next day or two.

anyhoo i can't blog without some of my own photos but here is one of my favorite wedding photo ideas i've seen, future hubby and I cannot wait to get our very own mustache on a stick from Etsy!! Woop!
