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 ...

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...

Happy 2015!

Cheers to the New Years! Hope it was lovely and celebratory and filled with lots of hopes and motivations for this upcoming 2015. I know this year is going to be the best one YET! We spent our New Years at a friends house, who had a great set up (including a DIY photo booth) and festive decorations! Plus a champagne-tasting contest, so we got to try a lot of different kinds of bubbly!  The best is yet to come! And it's so true. Each chapter that we embark on as a human being brings a new day and a new goal and new "best" days. When I was in high school, it was all about graduation it being the "best day," then we got to my 21st birthday, then my college graduation, then one of many relationship's anniversary, then getting my first big girl job and then turning 25, then to being proposed to, and now my next "best day" will be April 11, 2015. And from there on it keeps on and on. Isn't that exciting?  Each day I'm workin...
