so, the first thing he got excited about was the prospect of roasting a hog at the reception. yep, a whole hog! we knew we wanted a laid back BBQ style reception, but we figured on doing chicken and brisket on a smoker. well, a whole hog is just so much cooler :)

there are quite a few details that need to be ironed out, such as (1) where will we get the rotisserie to roast it? (2) we don't know where the reception will be, so hopefully we can even have a fire (3) WHO will roast it, prepare it, etc? is that a "guy" thing my dad and grandpa can do on the day of the wedding?
unfortunately, the only place around here i've found thus far that will roast us a whole hog requires that you also purchase the side items with the package, which is $9.75/head... WAY above our price range!
they are a pretty small franchise (with about 5 restaurants), so maybe I can talk to them to see if they could work with us.
the second thing was (gasp) the FONT i am using! i LOVE fonts.. for him to really love this font meant the world to me. (is that geeky?) it's called Burgues Script. it was love at first sight!
i am using this to address the invitations, and also as a second font (along with Mrs. Eaves font) in the invitations and ceremony programs.
i am totally inspired by Cynthia's stunning diy programs found here. WOW.
