THIS WEEK'S INSPIRATION

In this household, any decision-making process is accompanied by a spreadsheet. After weeks of internet research on (what seems like) every possible venue in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, we've finally condensed the information overload into one nice, concise, organized... and totally overwhelming spreadsheet. It's become clear that, rather than fantasizing about Monique Lhuillier and gorgeous letterpressed paper, my time would be better spent writing emails to venues and caterers. But lest I get too caught up in the prices and practicalities, I need to periodically remind myself what we really want: a beautiful, elegant party to celebrate us
