Meet the crew...

I decided that it is just about time in the wedding planning process to introduce my leading ladies to you.

Meet my amazing MOH and sister. We used to HATE each other growing up... now, she is one of my best friends!! I absolutely adore her! She is on the left and I am on the right! :)


Meet Bridesmaid J! She is also my sister. We have always had an amazing relationship even though we are 13 years apart. :)


Now meet FSIL K. She is amazing. I cannot wait to have her as my new sister. :) She just recently got married. This picture is from her wedding. Doesn't she look beautiful!


Now meet my BEAUTIFUL bridesmaid C. She is CRAZY! I LOVE that about her. She is always there for everything. This picture is from her graduation just the other week! I love how natural she looks in this pic!


Now meet bridesmaid KS! She is so FABULOUS! She always has such witty comments that just make you crack up. I have been friends with her since KINDERGARTEN!!!


The next bridesmaid is L. She has been one of my best friends for about 8 years now. She has been my partner in crime. We were inseparable for the longest time. She will always be one of my closest friends!


Next is Bridesmaid S. She is also my sister! Yes, I have lots of sisters!! :) We are 15 years apart, yet we have always been super close. I <3 her!


Last but not least is Bridesmaid T. She is my niece! We are only 4 years apart. I can't believe how old she is getting. I still think of her like she is 7 years old!




Now, you guys are gonna have to wait to see my Juniors and my Flower Girls... but they are WELL worth the wait!!!

How many bridesmaids do you have?

Take care until next time,

Registering is exhausting...

Man, I suck at titles lately...

Anyway, I don't think I ever blogged about our experience registering!!!

Choosing our first place to register was easy. MyMr and I have been obsessed with Crate and Barrel since we first started dating. We would literally go on dates to Crate and Barrel to pick out appliances for our future house.

So, a little while ago, we decided to start our registry...

2 1/2 hours later, and only a quarter of the way done registering... we were over it. It was so tiring and mentally depleting. How the heck am I supposed to know what color I want our kitchen to be when we don't even know what our kitchen is going to look like?!

Here is a picture of myMr picking out our salt and pepper shakers!! :)

Overall, it went well. We chose some great items, but I am dreading finishing up (we are supposed to this weekend).

Obviously this was taken at the beginning of our trip... we still look enthusiastic! haha :)

I still have no idea where else we should register. I am leaning towards either Macy's or Bed Bath and Beyond... Does anyone have any positive or negative comments toward registering and either of those two places?

Wish us luck this weekend!!! :D

Take care until next time,

Oh Forever 21, how I love thee...

Forever 21 and I have been in a off and on relationship for the past 8 years. Yes, that is right, EIGHT years.

I have gone through phases from Abercrombie to punk, but when it comes down to it, Forever 21 and I have a bond that cannot be broken.

Where else could you find great deals like this?

Only $32.80!!!

Or what about this?

Only $8.80!!!

Or THIS!

ONLY $4.80!!!

And I LOVE this:

Only $5.80!!!

Man, I love me a good deal. I am definitely considering getting my shower dress and rehearsal dress from Forever 21. The price is DEFINITELY right!

What other inexpensive stores tickle your fancy?

Take care until next time,

Hair-spiration

I have NO idea how I want to have my hair done for the wedding. Thank goodness I have just a little over 4 months to decide.

But let's be honest, choosing the right hair style is a BIG deal!!!

My hair is getting pretty dang long. It is midway down my back now and it drives me nuts I am learning to love it. My only complaint is that my hair is super thin. I am sure there is a style out there for me somewhere!!!

In the meantime, here is some hair-spiration for you!





How are you going to wear your hair? AND besides extensions, what is the trick for thin hair?

Take care until next time,

A quick little thank you.

I just realized that I have over 50 followers now!!!

I just wanted to say thank you to all of you who read my blog. It was a goal of mine to help just one bride make their wedding day the day that had always hoped for. Now, I feel as though I am surrounded by fabulous brides (and non-brides) who are amazingly wonderful people.

Thank you so much for the amazing comments and praise and love. I look forward to sharing wedding secrets every day because of YOU! :)

Take care until next time,

Nothing Bundt Cakes?!

Last weekend, we did it. MyMr and I looked at wedding cakes.

Now, let me just preface this with the fact that MyMr and I are not the biggest cake fans. We will eat it, but ehh... it is just okay.

We were going to just do something super simple like this:


I mean, not gonna lie, we all know that white chocolate shavings are delish... BUT...

A couple of weeks ago, someone at myMr's work had a birthday. For the birthday celebration, they purchased a cake from Nothing Bundt Cakes. Let me tell you, myMr has not stopped talking about how amazing this cake was. And yes, he doesn't normally like cake!!!



So, of course, we had to check it out for the wedding.

One word for you: OhMyGodThisCakeIsOrgasmicallyDelish!!!

There are several different flavors of cake, all topped with the most delicious icing I have ever had in my life. Seriously, I could just lick the top off the cake.




There are all different sizes as well. I think we will have a variety of cake flavors and sizes just to spice it up a bit! :)



So, it is official, we are going to have a bundt cake for our wedding cake!!! See, it looks like a flower!!! :D



This cake may not be typical and may be a little quirky, but hey so are we!!! :D

Are you a fan of cake?

Take care until next time,
