I won’t lie I am a falloholic. I LOVE fall and living in Texas I feel the need to fit it ALL in because sometimes we only get a two-week period between the blazing hot of summer and the freezing temperatures of winter. Of course this lends itself to a lot of fall […]
I’ll be honest I have HORRIBLE handwriting. In school I was that girl who practiced her bubble lettering and swirly calligraphy for hours only for everyone else’s to look a million times better (you know actually legible). So years ago when my husband and I got married few of my self-imposed DIYs […]
When I was trying to decide what to get my girls as a thank you for being a part of my day, I knew I wanted something that would be personal and functional. So I ended up putting together my own personalized box of goodies for each of them!
Early in our relationship I remember asking my husband if he would always love me as much as he did then.

This is potentially one of those do as I say and not as I do situations. You see my venue wasn’t even fully constructed when I booked my wedding. There was a concrete slab, a basic structure without windows, a big pile of wood, an even bigger pile of rocks, so pretty much what […]
Just got engaged?! Congratulations now the real fun begins! The first thing you need to do is get some idea of when you want to walk down the aisle. Whether you’ve just started thinking about it or have dreamed about a wedding at The Plaza in June since you were playing with Barbies, I […]
Today Facebook memories reminded me that at this time four years ago I was in the midst of a wedding planning frenzy.
