a big decision

Jackson (home) or Bay Harbor (destination)?

if you've been to Jackson, Michigan you might be thinking I'm crazy for even posing the question. My mind should have been made up before the words even hit this page, but there's just something so romantic, lovely, and enduring about having a wedding at home.

Either way we get to be married by the water (my dream) as J's parents have offered up their lake house lawn for the ceremony. (they are pretty amazing) Call me a silly dreamer, but I love the idea of being able to tell my kids someday that their father and I were married in their grandparents backyard...

... on the otherhand, it would be so sweet to take family vactions to Petoskey, Michigan and stay a night or two at Bay Harbor, telling our children stories of our romantic wedding there.

Both would be so beautiful and romantic and perfect. (I never thought I'd be saying that a Jackson wedding, something that never happened to be a dream of mine, would be perfect... but I know I could make it that way.)

*sigh* what to choose, what to choose...

I need to make a decision.

tomorrow.

May Day

Happy May Day! I think this diy May Day flower basket posted on DesignSponge a few days back would make a perfect decoration for the chairs aligning the aisle in an outdoor wedding ceremony...
