Adelaide's Homesewn and Chelsea Donoho, our wedding photographer

 This post features my two favorite Kansas City residents, Maria Casteel of Adelaide's Homesewn, Etsy Vintage shop, and Chelsea Donoho, photographer extraordinaire. I first saw Chelsea's work on Maria's blog last September when the two got together for an interview and vintage photoshoot. At the time I had just started looking for a wedding photographer and I knew right away when I saw Chelsea's work that I wanted her to shoot our hobo wedding. Her photos have the perfect vintage feel! AND, she's agreed to come all the way from K.C. to do the job!

That's Maria on the far left. Make sure to check out her shop often for lots more pretty 30s and 40s era dresses! Read Chelsea's interview with Maria, and see LOTS more of Chelsea's photos, on Chelsea's blog here.

Lucy and Ethel in "Prêt-à-Burlap"


When I posted about the "Original Feed Sack Dress", Brian's Aunt Liz told me about this hilarious episode of "I Love Lucy". So fashion forward ...

The Original Sack Dress

Just bought this on Ebay for $40! The "Original Sack Dress" in original package from 1958. I say I might wear this as my wedding dress if it fits ... with a rope around my waist as a belt...
