Hello!  I’m Iris Bud!  (And I really like to use exclamation points, since that’s how I talk in person – very excitedly!)  I’ll be marrying Iris Dude on May 21, 2010, and I’m so excited to be sharing this journey with you all!

We’ve been engaged since the end of January, and there’s still so much left to do.  We picked our venue almost immediately, which made me feel very accomplished.  However, we are now about 8 months away from the big day, and there’s still so much left to do!  I have gotten such great inspiration from this blog recently, and I only hope I can add a bit more inspiration as well.

We are getting married in Raleigh (located in central North Carolina, for anyone unfamiliar with the area), which so far has proven to be a treasure trove of vendors and suppliers – I look forward to sharing what I’ve found so far!
