Battle of the bridal sashes!

Sheesh, this is a more difficult decision than I thought it would be. So many sashes but only one will succeed in becoming Ashley's next top sash (very lame reference to americas next top model). Here are the contestants!

(keep in mind these are customizable thanks to some awesome ladies on etsy.com)
which do you like??









Testing from new app

Man, homework sure takes up a lot of quality time away from us, meh. Only two more weeks!

Update

Eliott & I have been very busy lately with school and such that we have not done very much in the wedding area. We have however been focusing on our relationship, we recently went to 2 to 1 with Winning at Home which was so wonderful! It was an all day marriage counseling type event, where we listened to speakers about the necessary nine topics to a happy marriage. We both got a packet with topics to discuss and tips for beginning our marriage on the right correct foot. I recommend this to every couple getting married, even if you are not religious, it is very informative and fun. We have developed this connection with one another that did not exist when we were merely boyfriend and girlfriend; being engaged has made us 10x stronger, which is very exciting :)

We have not totally forgotten about wedding stuff! The bridesmaid dresses have been ordered, which should be ready in less than a month. We bought them from Ananya on Etsy, I am so anxious for them to arrive! Also, we sent out our first batch of save the dates to friends and family. Funny story about this is when I finished addressing and stamping each one I abbreviated "Save the Date" by each name, which ended up being STD. Haha, STD, by everyones name, hilarious! Actually, I think they are actually called STI's now, sexually transmitted infections, but thats besides the point, I digress (my WRT 305 professor always says that phrase...).

Enjoy some inspirational photos!

Love these banners! I will DIY a few

Love the balloons, such a simple and inexpensive thing that looks so fun.

I also will be DIY-ing these string ball thingys (end result in top right corner). 

and somewhat our new color scheme: Cobalt, Yellow & Grey.

Thanks for reading!
