Wedding Invitations- halfway there OHHHHHhhh livin...

Halfway through addressing the invitations.

My future mother in law has been my calligrapher (yay!). It definitively takes a while to complete.
 There are also TONS of etiquette rules. Martha knows the rules. I followed some of them like having addresses handwritten but I'm a rule breaker and I don't have an inner envelope and an outer envelope.

3 month countdown!

90 Days people!!!!

BTW Rocco & I are on the changing top of Nicole K Photography's blog. We look scary-lol.

Cake decor?

I wish I could just have people vote for silly wedding questions like how our wedding cake should be decorated. Basically our cake has to be circular and I have the florist bringing dark dark purple orchids to be placed on the cake. The Clifton Inn which is making the cake can also add ribbon and easy small details. 

What do you think I should do? 

Options/Ideas:

Option 1- Use a champagne colored ribbon but only at the bottom (no criss crossing like above) and have the orchids grouped like this with more fuller orchids on top.

Ignore the cake topper 

Option 2: Orchids climbing up (but no ribbon). 

Option 3: Imagine the square part is chopped off and its just orchids at the bottom and the top.

NEW OPTION- I like! 

Minus the scary people on top I really like the swirls on the corner. However, not sure how that would work with a round cake. But I really like the placement of the orchids. 

Gift for Rocco- check

I am seriously addicted to Etsy but found the coolest Flask for Rocco and ordered it. I can probably give it the night or two before the wedding with some alcohol. There are so super cool flasks at http://www.etsy.com/people/whimsyandink?ref=ls_profile.

I also bought a cute card for my note to write him to give before the wedding. I realized over the last few days that men are special and need to know what you want, what they should do, etc... They are not mind readers. Randomly we were talking about love notes and I said that I would be writing him a note before the wedding and asked him if he was and he had no clue couples do that.

Story behind the card: One of our "songs" is "You & Me" by Plain White Tee's  (you can barf now)
