This past
weekend my mom and I spent Friday evening and Saturday morning addressing all
of our save-the-dates! I addressed as she stuffed and stamped. It was a great
time to be together and talk all things wedding and life in general. She is
pretty wise so I always love soaking up her wisdom. Oh, and shout out to Dale
Benfield of Benfield Photography for our adorable save-the-dates.
You may be
wondering about the title of todays blog so let me explain. Before Nathan and I
were even engaged we were traveling to White Hall one weekend and to avoid the
construction traffic coming out of Little Rock we got off the interstate and
took the “old highway” until we could get past the traffic. During this little
journey we found a town called Sweet Home. Immediately, we both said “Ah, Sweet
Home, Arkansas. That is pretty cool!” So, in my mind I thought to myself
when/if we ever get engaged I am mailing all things wedding from Sweet Home.
And I have done just that! Mom and I moseyed up to Sweet Home this past weekend and
mailed the save-the-dates (add one more check mark on the “to-do” list). May seem crazy to some but being detailed oriented myself I wanted our postmark to say Sweet Home, Arkansas.
Once we were
engaged, Nathan and I began discussing vendors, etc. and we decided we wanted
all of our vendors to be from Arkansas and we wanted as many as possible to be
small businesses. Both of us grew up living in and learning the ways of small
businesses because of our families so we wanted to be able to give back to the
community of Arkansas small businesses. I know you are probably thinking is
that even possible?! Yes! Yes, it is! If you keep coming back to read you will
learn of all the small business vendors we are using.
Pretty much
Sweet Home, Arkansas was the cherry on top to our theme for our wedding! All
things Arkansas and it sure is sweet!
