moodboard no. 2

Ok, so maybe I’ll put wee wedding snips here. I did start a separate blog for logistics for people who are coming (from all over! Even Berlin!) but as I’ll be putting maps and things it’s sneakret.

I’ve been so down since Janna and my grandmother died, I’ve noticed that it’s been hard to be grounded or present or cheery around my friends, and I’ve felt pretty listless at home, especially around projects or art. For what it’s worth, it’s at least distracting and fun to think about the wedding. Like making a giant stage production. Hey! It’s my background, right?

I’m doing a series of moodboards with the same colors, looking for cohesive themes that pop out. I already have a slew of ideas I haven’t seen around on the internets, so that’s good.  I just heard the phrase “blog-chic wedding” and that makes me die a little inside. So no, it will not be “blog-chic,” but it will be based on our shared love of strange rare books, woodland gnomery, victorian naturalist & general tarnished-sequin aesthetic.

Instead of bridesmaids, I’m having a Fairy Court. I’m not sure how this will work out or even what sort of ceremony we’ll have, but any excuse to get my ladies dressed up and together is a good one. I love love love them.
