a little rant

the "Wedding Industry" makes me SICK. seriously.
i can RENT table linens for a minimum of $5.50 each? uh, no thanks.

how about i head on over to ReStore and buy some beautiful, mismatched, vintagey ones for around $2 apeice?
that sounds better. much cheaper, much less cookie-cutter.

yes, everyone, i CAN have my cake and eat it, too!

we are pushed and prodded from every angle, as brides-to-be, to spend, spend, spend. this is "your" day, buy EVERYTHING!
you need the perfect linens to match the perfect centerpieces to match the $3,000 dress to match the blah, blah, blah.

i want our guests to walk away with a feeling of sincerity. with their souls a little softer and their hearts a little warmer... not thinking "wow, that must've cost a fortune!"
i want beautiful simplicity, not beautiful extravagance.

to me, it's not about that and it never will be.
