Friday flowers, early

You guys, I don't know what my deal is, but I am totally done for the week. My head feels empty in a washed clean kind of way and it's refreshing so I'm going with it.

Here is another shot of that bougainvillea from last weekend.

{bougainvillea}

It's actually from our wedding location (guess what? we found a venue!). This wedding stuff is pulling together, more or less organically. If you can say that about something that you've spent a million hours researching. Maybe you can't, but all the agonizing and comparing disappears when you make decisions that just feel right.

I'll probably do an update on that stuff soon. Currently, I'm enjoying my complete lack of motivation.

  1. Enjoy your weekend. Man, any location with flowers like these is bound to make each guest swoon. Can't wait to see how you pull everything together. Enjoy the down time!

  4. I thought it was just me! I have had zero motivation this week to do anything. I noticed people were quite online and off, but I thought maybe it was just my lackluster performance this week that was making them quiet. Glad to know I'm in such great company.

  7. Is this the place I *think* it is?? I recognize the flowers and the wooden beams (and the strung lights):) or i could be totally crazy. Congrats! I'm excited for you!

  9. I would recognize that venue anywhere! That's where we had our reception in July. I walked by that place every T/Th on my way to Medieval Art ten years ago and always loved the patio and the Spanish tiles... Those cafe lights make for some pretty rad night photos, too. If you feed the police officers, they'll be your best friends at the end of the night.

  11. 1. yay for finding a venue. this is the part that strikes fear in my heart and is principally responsible for the not one ounce of "planning" yet completed.

    2. yay for taking a little rest.

    3. yay for your post on a practical wedding. pure gold.

  12. What Erin just said? That's what I was going to say. Except that I'm already married.
    Also, I've been feeling like it's Friday all day. Why don't we just say it is? I love that you're going with that feel. I think I shall do the same.

  14. I know that feeling--that "this is right" feeling. It's incredible and gives you so much confidence making the next few steps! Bravo!

  15. Making decisions that just feel "right" is the best. I wish you a wedding planning process with nothing but that!
