Wine Country



We are big wine fans. So we finally made a point to get out and see some wineries. We decided to start with the Okanagan, since it is so perfectly made for wine and is absolutely packed with well known commercial wineries as well as small family run joints. We are on our 2nd of 4 days here in beautiful sunny Osoyoos. Our travels today took us to Jackson-Triggs, Dirty Laundry, Sleeping Giant Fruit Winery and last but not at all least, Blasted Church.
The image above is the label of one of their newest wines, called Mixed Blessings, a delicious blend of white wines. How nice would it be to serve such a quirky and appropriate wine at a wedding? We'd have loved to but with cases of 12 running at over $200, we just bought a bottle for us. Maybe we'll save it for an anniversary, or the rehearsal dinner.

T-minus 4 months




We are less than 4 months away and the guest list isn't completely finalized.

Nor are the invites ready. ( I made a big effing mistake and saved the WRONG files. ie the files that are not print-ready or of the right resolution. So I'll be starting almost from scratch on those.)

Additionally, I have been tasked, by my task master maid of honour, the job of making a shower guest list and deciding on what we might do for said shower, by the end of the month.

Luckily a lot of the other major components are already done ...

Dear Ms. Taylor,

You are my inspiration.

Decisions, decisions ...

So after months of feeling lukewarm about my dress I changed my mind and bought another one. It's fantastic. You can find it here. (no peeking, Rob!)
The original will be hitting craigslist soon.
I'm a bit in shock; I'm not usually so fickle, but it's so pretty, and I know it is the dress.

Now for accessories .... and I need opinions: can I still rock a birdcage veil?
