Sample of our invitation and thank you cards, (I hand screen printed the thank you's, a super fun project) |
Yesterday was my first wedding anniversary. I so wish I was where I was last year now! As you might know and/or have guessed my husband is from Italy and that is where we were married. In a tiny seaside town in Tuscany. I know this post is shamefully personal but there are travel, food and design elements throughout. Enjoy and Auguri to me!

Confetti (these are given out in the bomboniere [Italian for favor] ) you must give 5 pieces. |

The accent color in our wedding was orange. We had trouble agreeing at first on the color, but we took the advise on selecting a color that we used in our apartment in a picture, decoration etc. We had picked out an orange KitchenAid mixer and this was really the only color in our apartment so thus the choice was made. |

Planning for my wedding is how I really fell in love with Etsy. I had two ring bearer bowls and small ornaments made from an Etsy store, Paloma's Nest. Super friendly and professional to work with. |

Instead of throwing long grain rice our guests threw arborio rice (used for making risotto) at us! |
