Bridal Shower Guests

Before you read this post, I suggest you read the "If You Wish To Give A Gift" post first...

This is more for me than for Sam, but it was just too fun to pass up! I made a wish list at Anthropologie, my FAVORITE store! This could simply be a little inspiration into what kinds of things and styles I LOVE! Go to: www.anthropologie.com/anthro/wishlist/wishlist.jsp

Down at the bottom right click the search button in the "Find A Person Box". Then type in my name- Lynsey Carpenter- and select the Wedding Wish List.

Love this store, if you have never experienced it, you must check it out!

If You Wish To Give A Gift...

Sam and I are not registered yet, but we are going to be doing that on April 20th (this friday). The plan is to be registered at Target and Crate and Barrel.

Here is the catch though, both Sam and I are receiving many "living necessities" from a few different family members. We are going to have a lot of the basics we need. So we can make it a little less effort on you, and beyond helpful for us, by asking for gift cards or money if you wish to give a gift. We need money for living expenses more than we need things right now and we would appreciate the gesture more than you know. But, we are EXTREMELY grateful for any gifts that we will receive and appreciate the thoughtfulness from all of our friends and loved ones!

If you want this whole gift giving business to be really simple for you, or you just love us so much you wanted to help us out for this adventure, we have the perfect option for you! We have a HONEYMOON FUND! Simply click on the yellow paypal button at the bottom of this post to "donate" to our HONEYMOON!

Wedding Colors

So to all the people that have been asking, I can tell you that our colors are red (Sam's favorite color) and purple (Lynsey's favorite color). Here are the colors, and the flowers, exactly! Feel free to match us and one another to your heart's desire. The base color is white and any shade of these colors is perfect. We like to have variety around here!

Engagements

We had our engagement pictures taken on Tuesday April 10 from Kelsie, Sam's sister-in-law. She is a professional photographer and she did an AMAZING job. We could not have asked for a better photographer or better pictures. Visit her website! It is awesome and she is very talented.

Theme

We are going with a vintage, rustic, outdoor themed wedding. Due to the fact that Sam proposed with his Great Grandmother's wedding ring, and Lynsey will be wearing her mothers wedding dress (not that my mother is old enough to be old fashioned) we thought that this theme would be the most fitting and fun!

Getting Married

We are getting married!
