Personal – My Wedding {Paper Suite}

Designing my own wedding paper suite was by far the hardest thing I have done to date.  I was so hard on myself and wasn’t happy with some things I came up with.  I just knew I wanted everything to have lots of personality, color and graphics.  Eric and I designed the stationary and save the dates together and then my Mom sat along side me while I put the final wedding invite design together.  We came down to the wire on getting out the wedding invites because I had been so busy working on other weddings and graduations.  Time definitely flew by.  Luckily I was back in my hometown so I had lots of help from my Mom, Kara (my Maid of Honor) and Vanessa (my Matron of Honor).  Without them, I seriously would have been a total basketcase.  I was pretty stressed although I tried my best to hide it.  However, two weeks before the wedding, I came down with the shingles.  Thank goodness it was contained to my torso and that Vanessa is a PA.  She looked at it for me and told me what I needed to do.  It definitely was uncomfortable and hurt off and on.  I know now that I can get it again if I get run down or stressed like I had been.
