Wedding Souvenir

Today I print my wedding souvenir at my fiancee's photo lab using the tintoretto paper 250g. They came out beautifully altho I still prefer the Tomahawk paper. My wedding souvenir is 4 blank cards with 2 designs with chocolate envelopes wrapped in a vellum printed with pattern in yellow with me and my fiancee's name and wedding date.

I also tried printing the vellum but I haven't got the yellow colour that I want. Have to do some trial again. I have to start printing these soon because there'll be 1400 packs that we have to do! So many things to be done and so little time. I plan to print our wedding book guests ourselves as well.

Today I went to a hand made shoes maker called Fendy Wong's Shoes. He designed shoes for brides and fashion shows. I chose a simple one with a big bow on top with some swarovski crystals attached on the bow. One thing done... still plenty of things to be done next week. We're gonna see more fashion designers and also the decorator. I wish I have more time to prepare for everything. I think these 7 weeks to go will go in a flash without me realising it and suddenly it'll be my wedding day.

It's funny how I feel sad that the big day is approaching. I think it's because it's the day that I've been waiting for such a long time and it's coming close and I know it's gonna end as well. But I always think that what's important about marriage is not the party or the celebration, but the life afterwards. I plan to have fun with my husband and kids and still have the time to do some illustration designing.
