Cabel Sasser got married. His wife, Nicole, gave him a little room to run on invitations and theme. Words will not do it justice. Check out his blog post. http://www.cabel.name/2008/10/on-wedding-design.html He doesn’t spend anytime raving about how great his DJ was, but they did some really cool things. Letterpress printed their own invitations. [...]
We have reached the tipping point.
We have reached the tipping point. I was at a wedding last weekend with more cameras; disposable, digital, regular 35mm than people. Skip the disposable cameras Do the math and show your work!

The Mystery is Solved
The bride and groom from the Best First Dance Ever have been found! They were on Ellen today. http://ellen.warnerbros.com/2007/12/newlyweds_got_back.php There names? Michelle and John Brubaker!

One minute he was getting ready to get setup. [...]
Toasting Wedding Toasts

The State Dinner In Honor Of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
President George W. hosted his first white tie event in honor of Queen Elizabeth. I am a big fan of etiquette. This event amounts to pretty much the high water mark of formal events in the US of A. For those of you playing at home.. White Tie is a step up from Black Tie. [...]
