Love letter...to who?
peek-a-boo :)


My husband chose these cake toppers and he couldn't have made a better choice! They're now our travel companions.Thanks to Y&A for the idea!
Post-wedding photos: Dress by Maggie Sottero
 My husband and I are budding photographers. Of course, we had to take photos of the wedding dress after we picked it up from our bridesmaid. The dress went through a lot of labor after being used and abused. It took us almost an hour to iron it after taking it out of a trash bag.  It was priceless to see it receiving some love from the hubby :)

Hotel Booking Tip:
-If you can afford to be flexible, try booking via www.hotwire.com
-Once you check in at the hotel, ask for upgrade to honeymoon suites. We stayed at the Sheraton and were upgraded upon request. Hilton gladly upgraded up to their Jr. Suite
-Rates are best on weekdays

The Veg Chopstick chooses a Wedding Cake











so many choices! Which to choose? We want something clean, with minimal decorations. Fondant cakes are more expensive, therefore, the design would have to incorporate cream. We ended up choosing this cake design:

We printed the above photo and gave it to our baker, who said she will try to make it that way. The result?


We're very happy with the way the cake turned out. Thank you, Linda's Bakery!
