our first wedding gift!

So - we are still over a year away from our big day but we just got our first wedding gift. We aren't registered anywhere yet, but one of my students from Scripps heard that I am engaged to be married and gave me a gift for the both of us as a "thank you" for the semester and happy summer type of thing, but mostly as a "congrats on your marriage". haha. so sweet. I didn't want to wait over a year to open it, so here it is!

Actually. I guess this is not the REAL first gift. Our great friends Rina and Christine subscribed me to Martha Stewart Weddings magazine when we first got engaged. I thought this was so sweet because I totally plan to DIY so many aspects of our wedding and before I even told them this, they already knew! :) So excited because Martha Stewart weddings just came out with a collector's edition issue and the wedding pictured on the cover is totally our color scheme!! Well, it uses more green than pink (when we plan to do the opposite), but still - How cool is that?! :)
