    1. When is/was your wedding?
    July 9, 2011

    2. What are/were your colors?
    Nothing official (I need to confer with the dude), but I'm leaning towards a topaz blue and peridot green, with some amethyst mixed in there.

    3. Did/Does your wedding have any specific theme?
    Is "simplicity" a theme? We're aiming for a relaxed, light-hearted wedding, more casual than formal.

    4. Why are you having or why did you have an outdoor wedding?
    I was never the type of girl to daydream about a perfect wedding, but for some reason whenever the topic came up, I knew I wanted to get married outside, surrounded by gardens. My dude has really embraced the idea of an outdoor wedding, thankfully. We want the sunshine and the flowers, not some closed in and dark space.

    5. What aspects of your wedding are being held outdoors?
    Just about all of it--we're having the ceremony in the site's azalea garden and the reception will be both inside and outside under a tent that leads up to the home on the property. We're not having any formal seating, as it'll be a sort of cocktail hour set up instead, so the flow works out.

    6. What's your biggest worry for your wedding day, other than weather?
    I'm only in the beginning stages of planning, so my worries are really reserved more towards finding everything we need rather than the day itself. I just found out I can't have someone grilling onsite, which is a downer--I wanted a BBQ reception--but hey, that's life! Just need to figure out what to do instead! So I'm not sure. Pulling off a lame party instead of something fun? Haha.

    No dress yet, so here's an image of the azalea garden instead...
