OK. We’re Almost There.

We’re really getting down to the last days before the wedding! My final countdown begins on Saturday. This is because I have been so busy at work trying to get everything done before I leave for my two long weeks of vacation. Tomorrow is my last day in the office before I am free! I’ve [...]

Since I have been designing our invitations I’ve been on the hunt for free patterns, vectors and other graphics online. I have discovered some excellent resources and thought I would share. Normally I would blog this kind of thing on my blog (but right now it’s under construction).

Deus misereatur

The Book of Common Prayer strongly suggests certain Bible passages be read during the wedding service. I think most clergy give wide latitude here; in our case, Paul basically said we could have read whatever we wanted.
