:: Look Book - Bookfest ::

A little while ago Gracie and I went to the Lifeline Bookfest together. We both adore books, so soon our arms and bags were laden with pre-loved books of all shapes and sizes!

Gracie so graciously (see what I did there?) agreed to be my first Look Book model! I love Look Books, but since I prefer to be behind the camera I have decided to use my ridiculously good looking friend as models :)

I love the china plate pattern of her dress and the extra-long grandpa cardi! A perfect outfit to wear while searching for additions to your library!

:: Wedding Inspiration - Vintage Books ::

I love books. The love the smell of them. I love the feel of them. One day I hope to have a library in our house with floor to ceiling books. Luckily, I am marrying someone who also loves book - old books in particular.

So, what do old books and our wedding have in common? I've been so excited to share this with you, but I had to wait! Now I can finally show you our vintage book invitations!

Time was running out on our invitations and we still hadn't settled on a style we liked. We both love simple, clean looking things and we both love old books. It was actually my younger sister who came up with the idea to join the two together and create a fantastic book themed wedding invitation!

They have been a hit with our guests and we couldn't be happier with them!

Who doesn't love a brown paper package tied up with string?

The countdown is officially on now - 24 days 'til we get married!
