Bridal bling!!

So i've been thinking about the jewelry I want to wear on my wedding day and I found this awesome bracelet on etsy!! I love it so much and it just arrived in the mail today. I cannot wait to wear it with my dress. Now all I need to find is my earrings and necklace..or maybe just earrings..don't wanna over do it too much.


Etsy find


Here are some adorable Mr & Mrs wedding forks I found on etsy to buy for when we eat our first slice of cake. Cute right?

Monogram trial 2


So here is my second monogram that i've created. I really like this one. I like that I made the pink even pinker(if that's even a word). I really like this one the most..so far.

First attempt at our monogram


So here is my first attempt of our wedding monogram. I love that wedding monograms make your wedding that much more unique and special. I plan to use this throughout the wedding. I will probably create a new one, but I like this one for now. I made it in paint.net. It took me a few minutes to learn how to use it, but I think I did pretty well.


Must take photos

I am so inspired when I look at posts on Style Me Pretty. I get so many great ideas and I just hope my wedding looks half as fabulous and the ones featured on the site. So i've been thinking about photos I must take. Brandon and I are doing first look photos and I really cannot wait!! I have not seen a first look photo that I didn't love. I also saw this picture of the sky and I know this might seem weird, but I really want to see/remember what the sky looked like on my wedding day (was it cloudy, sunny, white fluffy clouds, dark scattered clouds..etc). So here are a few of my favs that ive found on different wedding blogs.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to ME!!!




So i've been slacking on my posting lately. So much has happened, like the fact that I just turned 23! It feels the same as 22, but I had a wonderful birthday and it made me feel so blessed. So im finally at my 1 year mark..woohoo!! On my birthday next year, I will be on my honeymoon in St. Lucia. It feels so good to finally be less than a year away from my big day. I feel like i've got so much accomplished. I have:



  • Wedding venue( Carolina Inn)

  • Photographer (Michael Moss)

  • Wedding planner (Tracy Adams)

  • Florist (Lyn Graves from Fresh Affairs)

  • Save the dates (Vistaprint)

  • cake stand (Craigslist)

  • DJ (Tyler Rhodes)

I have so many ideas going through my head, I just hope they all come together as planned. Here are some of my inspiration/ideas for my hair, bouquet, and cake that I have as of right now.

When I walk into my wedding I want drama!!!

So my wedding is a year away!! Im so excited to finally be this far along. We're having a two year engagement and at first I was just throwing out ideas, but now its time to really start planning. Ive been so busy at work I haven't had time to do much planning when I get home. I know I want a lot of lighting and a dramatic centerpieces. I want textured table linens and lots of candles. So when I talk about lighting this is what I want to see when I walk into the room. I don't want anyone to see blue walls..I want them to see color and texture!!





Here is a picture of my venue for the ceremony. Im having an evening reception so I want lots of candles like in this picture. It won't be fall yet so the trees will still be green and really nice.
