It happened again....

I guess if you've learned anything about me through this process, you've learned that I do a lot at a time or a little. I guess what I am trying to say is....HERE COME MORE POSTS. I do apologize sometimes other things just come up and before I know it 3 weeks have gone by. Plus, the wedding is at a stand still. We are waiting on RSVP's to produce the final budget.

But I have great things to write about Charleston and what to do while you're visiting. I am super excited that we are getting married in South Carolina and want everyone to enjoy it as much as I do. The beaches, history, food, and fun. The activities can be as much or as little as you want. And as always email me or call if you have questions or need help planning.

All about us COMPLETE!

We finished the book on the drive to Ohio! We had 11 hours to talk! WOW! I recommend this book to anyone who wants to get to know a little more about their partner. I had a blast. Anyone know of a follow up book? Maybe there is a newlywed one.

A year ago today....

Oh the process of making decisions...

I saw this on weddingbee and loved it! I hope you get a laugh too! It's very similar to our conversations when we first started planning! Enjoy.....

Aunt Arlene to the Rescue!


I would like to say a big thank you to Kevin's Aunt Arlene. After reading my blog post about the Heidi Grace fabric, she went to JoAnn's in Chicago and found another 8 yards! That put me to the exact amount I needed to finish the tables and have a few extras just in case. Thanks so much for reading and helping me find that mysterious fabric! Here's a photo of Aunt Arlene, Kevin, and I at her son's wedding.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!

Hair Trial Scheduled!

Oh Stella Nova, you are expensive but you make me soooo happy. I am thrilled to have my everyday salon doing my wedding day hair. After over a year and a half of searching, I've finally found a stylist I love. I was even happier when I discovered she is available on my wedding date. Stella Nova truly does it all-nails, hair, and make-up. I know my girls and I are in good hands with Elaine and Becca taking us on! I am looking forward to being pampered and feeling beautiful. The trial is scheduled for the end of June. My mom will be in town so it will be tons of fun to share the first salon experience with her. I will take photos and hopefully post some good options for the big day. Visit stella-nova.com to learn more about this wonderful place.
