pony express

The invites are out! I finally broke down and realized that no printer was going to allow me near it. Therefore I had to hire someone to press print for me. Luckily at our neighborhood Kinkos there is just such a man. Apparently this sort of thing happens often? He is very skilled at designing and printing on wedding paper. Also, I was happy because he said our invitations were the best he had seen :) He was also proud that we had not waited until the last possible minute. It seems there have been hectic brides appearing the day before the wedding to have programs, etc printed immediately. Uhh...we're supposed to have programs? I mean, totally we have that all figured out. See you sooN!
P.S. Although I would have paid a million dollars to have these delivered by actual pony express, or even just to have a pony around while it is being delivered...the postman informed me this is not possible. So, if you don't get them in a timely manner its his fault, not the pony.

Angel and River are bored of all this wedding talk.

ties to die for

I can't post a picture because we want these to be a pleasant surprise but I can't keep my excitement to myself! These ties are awesome. My very first purchase from Etsy is a total score. If you have any need for gorgeous interesting ties check out this site: http://www.cyberoptix.com/

Bethany helped us out with a custom order so no worries in accidentally seeing ours. I kind of want to sleep with them under my pillow. I'm resisting the urge.

So I decided to make a blog.
So there!

Our little family consists of 2 velociraptors in greyhound costumes, a bartender and a social worker. It works for us!

I will try to link some helpful information about our upcoming rocking wedding that you are dying to attend! Of course I will always be posting about our adventures in velociraptor keeping.

If you have forgotten, the wedding date is April 25th 2009 at the National Museum of Dance in Saratoga Springs, NY. Starts at 5pm sharp! You should all be receiving your formal invitations soon. Would have been sooner but every printer I come across commits hari kari before I can get to it. We cannot wait to see you all!

If you are looking for information about Saratoga Springs in general, check out http://www.thesaratogalife.com/ . It's a website that was started by a Skidmore alumni just like Isaiah and I, so it must be good! There is great information about shops, restaurants and hotels. We could not block rooms unfortunately so you are on your own for booking rooms, however we would recommend the Gideon Putnam (where we will be!) $139/night http://www.gideonputnam.com/ or if you are looking for cheap and downtown accessibility, check out the Springs Motel http://www.springsmotel.com/ $80/night, or an old favorite the saratoga downtowner (indoor pool!) http://www.saratogadowntowner.com


I will post more information as it happens!
