One very expensive bottle of champagne later....

only to mac & murphy would a non-real date ending in an awkward hug be the makings of a great love story, but to us, and for erin jones & steve higgins, it is!

after 2 years of dating and standing in line for more than 2 hours for a hot dog (where steve had the good sense not to propose), steve dropped a sparkler into a bottle of very expensive champagne and rather than history being made, their future was set.

erin & steve will wed in charleston in april of next year and we'll be there to help every step of the way because they will Be Our First!

congrats erin & steve - we look forward to working with the two of you!

mac & murphy want you to Be Our First!

we're just so excited to be entering the world of happily ever after that we've decided to start giving things away! its crazy, i know.

our friends over at The Wedding Row have done such a great job promoting our Be Our First contest that we'll just let them explain it to you } http://theweddingrow.com/?p=1624

(i know we asked to hear all the mushy gushy makings of a good love story but try to control yourselves just a lil' bit and not be too cheesy will you please??)

xoxo Good luck!! xoxo

Activity/Coloring Books for the Children of Charleston @ mac & murphy

we just added the cutest "paper accessory" at mac & murphy. check out these fantastic activity-coloring books complete with a pack of crayons.

With activities like a maze through Pirate Blackbeard's beard - collecting gold coins and treasures along the way - or coloring pictures of girls dancin' "The Charleston", history has never been so much fun for the little ones.

*Perfect for decorating the "children's table" at a Charleston Wedding or for birthday goodie bags!

Habel Construction Journals

Its a sad day to learn that Habel Construction is 1) no longer selling wholesale to storefronts and 2) no longer producing their fabric covered journals - such sad news! We're lucky enough to have two journals still in stock but after that its bye-bye to Habel. Tear.
