Sneak Peek

We leave for Denver tomorrow for the Great American Beer Festival but I wanted to give a little preview of our engagements pictures before we took flight!

-1 Anniversary

One year from today, I will become Mrs. Lindsay McKay...hey, that rhymes! We are celebrating by having a fancy dinner at the revolving restaurant in the city. The view should be wonderful on this overcast, craptastic day!

Let's hope this stuff clears out for tomorrow's photo shoot. (This is me crossing my fingers xxxxxxxxx)

Setting the Stage...

These carnival engagement shoots are absolutely adorable...I can't wait til we do ours this weekend! Hopefully the weather cooperates. St. Louis is about to get pummeled with storms today thru tomorrow...It may get swampy for the fair. Thank God we aren't having an outdoor wedding, I'm pretty sure I'd have an anxiety attack.

I love that dress she is wearing...fun, comfortable and still cute! 

Unique Engagement Photos

It was hard to come back to work this morning after my extended Labor Day Weekend...but I'm here. We have a super busy week including taking our engagement pictures! We'll be headed to a local fair with a friend who will document the day for us...she is super talented. Check her out here.

Now let's get in the mood with a fun carnival shoot!

Save the Date

I am absolutely in love with this Save the Date idea.

The song is lulling me to sleep...

Feeling Whimsy!

This is a wedding I saved a while back and I am still in love with it. It comes from wedding photographer Victor Sizemore.  I am still salivating! Have a look:

The invitations, balloons, cut-outs, colors, games and ferris wheel....the details are impeccable!

Here Comes the Bride...

Welcome to my new little place on the web :) My name is Lindsay, Your Blushing Bride. For the next year, I will be planning my own wedding with my wonderful fiance. We have been together for a little over 3 years and FINALLY decided to make it official (love you babe ;) ). We are best friends that have the best time with each other. There is no one else I'd rather spend the rest of my life with. Alright, enough with the sap!

For our big day, we wanted to make it an event that would be fun, light and something people would definitely not forget. It didn't take long for us to arrive on the idea of having a circus/carnival themed wedding! Before you jump to conclusions, we recognize the extremely fine line with this type of theme...we could very easily let this event slip from classy to trashy. That is why I have you guys now :)

I invite you to take the journey with me as I scour the web for the little details that will make our day truly unforgettable. Let the games begin...(insert circus music "root doot da doot")
