Besides the deposit for our venue, this is the first purchase I've made for our wedding. This is shocking since I love to shop, especially online. I've shopped for our wedding A TON, but haven't committed to actually purchasing anything until now. It's good to make some firm decisions regarding decor since there is an overwhelming abundance of choices while planning.
My first purchase: A porcelain magnolia flower for our cake. It's from BHLDN - I just adore this store. The magnolia will replace the traditional cake topper and since it's porcelain (and not a sugar flower) we can keep it and display forever.
