Greystone

Good day! There are a few Durham -centric blogs that I keep up with on a consistent basis. One of those websites is Endangered Durham. Follow this link for a brief history of "The Greystone". What once was the residence of J.E. Stagg will now be the home of our reception.

Keep it great in '08!

Formal Wear?

This is my first official post to the our wedding blog. Xtina has done such a wonderful job with the posts I was a bit overwhelmed with what to write. Not anymore! It's a new year everybody!

As a first bit of correspondence, I would like your help in choosing what to wear at the wedding. I was thinking of adopting this fine piece of formal wear for our special day. Is it just me or do those boots and revolver scream, "Catholic Mass."?

Keep it great in '08.
