style, stories & everything in between
settle in, folks, today's post is a long one! in anticipation of our honeymoon to quebec city, canada now just 5 days away (!!!), i'm giving you a sneak peek into my suitcase, sharing everything i'm bringing for our 12-day stay, my strategy in packing said items, and a glimpse into some of the activities ...
as i've mentioned before, we were fortunate enough to work with literally every single one of our dream vendors. while our photographs captured incredible still frames of our special day, there is truly nothing like a video to tell the story of our wedding. so that's why we made sure to contract who i believe is ...
now that we're officially in april (wait, wasn't it just february?!), i feel like our honeymoon is finally coming into view. at t-minus three months (and being the OCD planner that i am), i've begun assessing my wardrobe for eleven glorious days of travel. while i certainly have a plethora of options to start putting ...
i've tried to write this introduction a thousand times and yet i still can't find the words to accurately describe the sentiments surrounding our wedding day. while it was certainly the culmination of eight months of planning, it was more importantly, the celebration of an answered prayer 31 years in the making. to say that this ...
stopping in for a quick hello as i ease back into reality. i'm not gonna lie, a gal could get used to this "no work" thing. for those who don't follow along on instagram, i wanted to share a little sneak peek from our big day. in short, our wedding was everything we could have dreamed ...
brb, getting married. well not quite yet. the wedding is on saturday! but in preparation of this most joyous and momentous event of our lives to date, i'm taking a week off from work and blogging to truly soak in every last second of this sweet season. i'll still be instagramming so be sure to follow along ...
happy christmas eve! i'm popping in for a quick hello and and an even quicker wedding update from last week. last wednesday (the one month(!!!) mark until the wedding), my mom, S and i met with our florist, siren floral, co. for a sneak peek of the floral design elements of our big day (specifically the ...
we are officially in countdown mode around these parts (46 days!) and it's equal parts exciting and terrifying. exciting for the obvious reasons and terrifying in that i don't really feel stressed so maybe i'm forgetting something? at any rate, we had our walk through with our venue coordinator this past weekend and while we were ...
now that both my bridal shower and bachelorette weekend have already come and gone, things are really starting to feel real. i mean next week will mark TWO months from the big day and i truly can't believe how quickly the time has flown. the next sixty days will be filled with finalizing details and follow-up ...
as i mentioned last week, i was originally opposed to having a bachelorette party. but in reflecting over how full this weekend made my heart feel, i am so grateful that my friends convinced me otherwise. the celebrations kicked-off when my friend of 17 years (M) flew in from san francisco on friday morning for a ...
