Weekend Shenanigans: Bridal Shower Edition

Wow what a weekend! Full of love, laughter, and the beginnings of a happily ever after! The greatest and cleverest ladies of mine put together THE cutest little Bridal Shower set up, and it was a blast! It was pretty much Pinterest paradise, and it was perfect. 

Every little touch was just a little slice of sunshine, from the entry way "date jar" idea and recipe box, the pictures on canvas, to the mimosa bar (my fave), the delicious lunch (and strawberry feta salad!), to the table dedicated to sweets. 









The little details on everything was just too cute, and it was fun seeing all of the little things that the girls had put together. 

And of course they had me "practice" my cake cutting skills-since everyone knows it's a piece of vital information that you will need for an actual wedding! 


The games we played were so funny! I've never played any bridal shower games before, so this was all new to me too. 





The final product of the designer wedding dresses was spectacular! We have some hidden talent among us. ;) 

The Full Package (including earrings, head piece, and train), The "Easy Access," The Classic, and The Mermaid! 







[[Couldn't have done it without my best good friend Dovie! Thank you THANK YOU for hosting!]]

Overall it was the best time and my cheeks were hurting from smiling so much. Special shout out (and a huge thank you) to all of my bridesmaids for putting this together for me. I'm big on the "small things" and there were a bunch of "small things" that just made it come together. I am so lucky and thankful for friends like these! Really it should be a special shout out to everyone that came, because really, I am so fortunate to know all of you! 

Love LOVE!

Honeymoon Part 1

Where to start, where to start? It's surreal to me how we've ALREADY been married over a week, AND that we've already been to the Bahamas and back :( The Bahamas (in Nassau to be exact) is such a beautiful place. It's the same island that has the Atlantis Resort on it, which we could see in the distance down the coast from our resort. We really picked the perfect place to spend our honeymoon. We left cloudy, rainy Dallas and Atlanta to sunshine and white sand, blue water, and 80 degree weather! It's so crazy to me that we've already been back from there after spending the week out of the country.  Obligatory newlywed plane selfie Monday morning came dark and early at 4am to catch our first flight out of DFW. I was proudly wearing my super comfy new "wifey" sweatshirt that my friend/bridesmaid Shohreh got me-thank goodness she stalks me on Pinterest ;) along with our brand spankin new wedding bands. Robert's ring looks so good against his ...

Sunday Confessions

Sooooo I meant to post these  Friday   Saturday  Sunday confessions a couple of days ago, but alas life happens. And it's been a chaotic week. Yay for warmer weather (sorta!) and Super Bowl Sunday but here's what I wanted to post on FRIDAY that I'm just getting around to. Blog fail. So I watched Grease Live! this past Sunday (as in a week ago now) and I can't stop thinking about it. And I may have watched it again...all 3 hours...twice. Did anyone else watch it? The original was an integral part of my childhood, and one of the only movies we watched over and over at my grandma's house, so it's one of my all time faves and I may have gotten a wee bit emotional at the end. The feeeeeels.   I was going to attempt to go do some of this "30 days sugar free!" nonsense starting beginning of February. Then I forgot that Valentine's Day was in a couple of weeks. And we have chocolate everywhere. And Girl Scout cookies. And then it was so and so's bi...

Winter is Coming..so is a Wedding!

Burrrr! Today is a balmy 40 degrees outside-and I'm definitely not ready for it despite my scarf-wearing, boot shopping fashion choices since September, hoping to "force" Fall to actually happening, but now that it's here: go away! Or at least just get a liiiitle bit warmer, so I can still have fun in my dozens of scarves and boots, but not freeze my ass off. Ka-peesh? My parents like to kindly remind me of what's to come in December, since we are going to the Army-Navy football game in Baltimore. Last year in Philly was just awful (and by awful I mean freezing, rainy, icy, cold, hungry, wet, sweaty, repeat) but a blasty blast being in a new city and living through new memories being made.  Any hoo-Even though I'm not snuggled up at home on this festive Veteran's Day (thank you to everyone who has served!), warm in my bed, I still wanted to touch on some wedding related topics: vendors. This could also be fun to read AFTER the wedding in April, to loo...
