PS.
Zac's suit arrived along with his parents and about 100 photos of Hugo Boss stores all over Europe - just to rub it in, I think?!
The suit fits. Thank God. Zac looks great in it and the fabric feels fiiiiiiiine.
Oh, and I got my dress pinned today so that it can be altered. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this for anyone remotely thinking about buying a dress (wedding or otherwise). Just having it fit properly, hemmed and shifted slightly made me fall in love with my dress, I liked it before, but now I am really excited and I feel much more confident wearing it.

Drive.
So this is google maps from the last couple of days.
We hit the central suburbs together on Sunday night, Monday night I hit the southern suburbs, this afternoon was north&east.
Driving clears my head and that's exactly what I needed this week - just getting away from work, singing, being amazed by Safety Bay at midnight, Waterman's Bay at midday, kangaroos in a field near Ellenbrook, Darlington pine trees, wondering if you'll make it home before you pee.
I have 2 invitations left to deliver. I need to re-do their envelopes, woooops.

RocknRoll.
This is Zac.

He's very attractive isn't he? Especially when he plays his guitar. I think our first conversation was about that guitar, I think I asked if I could touch it, or look at the birds or something and he just looked at me as if to say, "As if."
Haha :)
He is probably really embarrassed right now. Too bad!

This week.
So this week is going faster than expected - which is becoming a regular occurrence as we get closer to the wedding...
We have:
Paid our photographer in full. Goodbye money, it was nice knowing you. Hopefully you will come back and say hello when you have magically transformed into kick-ass photos!
Talked about weddings with our friends (single and married) it was great just to laugh and chat and know that the problems we're facing are universal.
Printed out table numbers. That's right, we're getting into the nitty-gritty now, this sort of task typifies how I feel about so many of the little wedding tasks. BORING, YET STRANGELY EXCITING.
Finished painting the glass vases for our flower arrangements. Finally.
Visited our printer again, I'm picking up our invitations tomorrow... Kind of nervous/excited to see the finished product!
Prayed I would win a competition that would give me 100m of wide, striped, grosgrain ribbon. I'm so cheap.
Zac bought some cufflinks and a belt. They are very classic and manly. Like this guy here:
Checked the mailbox everyday for a revised quote from our florist which still hasn't arrived.
Drew out how I see tables and rooms set up. We're getting to a stage where we are seeing things work differently and then we confuse each other about what exactly we are doing with the place cards and cupcakes and other stuff? Drawing it out always helps me to clarify with myself and helps Zac understand what I'm talking about/seeing in my head.
Been listening to Johnny Cash to relax. This song cracks me up every time, I'm not usually a big country music fan, but I always make time for the man in black. What a legend!
We are both working so hard at the moment so that we don't come back to chaos when we get back to work after the honeymoon. At the moment I just want big sky, nothing to do, stars and waves and sand and shade and aeroplanes.
Hung out with friends at Youth and made a fool of ourselves being 'bad' in leather. Yep, we're THAT cool.....

Kisses & Keats.

the last of your kisses was ever the sweetest."

Handkerchieves.
My mum's mum is the sweetest, she wanted to take on a crafty wedding project so that she could be involved in our wedding. What a darling!
After some too-ing and fro-ing about what to make (uhh, can someone tell me what a 'dilly bag' is?!) we came up with a solution that was both classic, meaningful and not too difficult.
This is the result.
In the corners are my grandma's wedding date and their initials, my mum's wedding date and their initials and my wedding date and our initials. She embroidered one for herself, for me, for my other grandma (with her wedding date etc) and my mum. I'll give it to them before the day so they can bring it along.
They'll probably end up being more practical than pretty, we come from a long line of criers :)
