Our Wedding Rules

I’ve noticed that I’ve started making a small running list in my head of my own arbitrary wedding planning rules, and I thought I’d share what’s on the list so far:

  1. No DIY projects that involve tying hundreds of tiny bows.
  2. No favors. No apologies.
  3. No use of the word ‘lover’ in the ceremony. Period.
  4. No colors. I know, anarchy is next.*

Got your own?

*Oddly, of all the wedding decisions we’ve made, the one that we’ve taken the most heat for is not having wedding colors. Are you kidding me? Do we live in 1955? What is it about weddings and being unable to think outside the box? Whew. Vent over.

Concealed Weapons

Of course, if you are having a Marie Antoinette themed wedding, you’ll need to get this excellent Toybreaker tie for the groom.
Marie’s coat of arms and signature on the front, a guillotine on the back. You wouldn’t want anyone to think you’ve lost your sense of irony.
