Hi! I'm Tina an older second time around bride who is a crazy cat lady, adores vintage anything, and loves to bake because it relaxes me. I'm a full time single mom to two boys and soon to be step mom to another! I am so happy to have met my best friend who I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with!

I am going to my seamstress on Tuesday who is a genius so hoping she can figure something out but wanted to know if anyone has done something similar. I found online someone selling a shrug that...
Had my nail trial today with my regular manicurist because she wanted to have time to play around with what I wanted. She absolutely nailed the “I do” (I know it’s on the wrong ring finger, she wanted...
I love seeing all the beautiful dresses you ladies have bought and girls exclaiming they are dress twins, but my gown is from the 2011 collection by James Clifford who doesn’t even design anymore. I...
I went online but so many options out there! My heels are so dry and rough from winter weather and working out. What has worked for you to get rid of the dry skin and get soft heels! I’m wearing...
Had my first dress fitting today and amen and hallelujah my dress fit! (I was so worried it would need to be taken out). It needs to be hemmed and bustle added but while I was there I tried on a belt...
Hi! Had my first fitting today and one of the things my seamstress suggested was having clear snaps on the sides and/or back of my lace shrug to attach it to my dress so it doesn’t move or ride up my...
Looking for ideas for my nails and definitely want to have crystals on them. My nails will be painted mint green. Anyone done that or have their own inspo pics? Here are mine so far:
My FH’s son is 17 and autistic, we have him 50% of the time. While he is high functioning he still has his moments. Originally when my FH first mentioned to his son that we were going to get married,...
While watching the football today I finished making all the boutonnières and corsages. The three plain white ones are for our three boys, the purple one in the middle is for my FH, the white and...
I have vintage library card catalog cards similar to picture shown. They are blank except for a plastic tab at the top which has the original title. I also have card catalog drawers similar to shown...
I can’t sleep so I was thinking about the wedding ceremony. FH and I plan on writing our own vows. I also like the poem Marriage Box which I want read during my ceremony. I thought I could make a box...
My FH asked his uncle for addresses for 9 family members (these include the uncle’s children). Of the 9 he gave us we find out after invitations have been mailed that 7 are wrong! Invites were mailed...
Following up from my post regarding my makeup trial on Saturday I took on board what everyone said and also what I was thinking and cancelled the services of both the makeup and hair stylists I saw....
Had my makeup trial today. I wanted a glam look. Overall I am happy with what she did although I felt the eyeshadow was too dark too high up and I wanted a more lighter shimmer look on the lid. She’s...
I've created my guest list on WW and cannot find anywhere where I can mark them as attending or not? Does this function exist on the guest list section? I want to mark attendance and meal choice. (I...
I love my A-line dress by James Clifford and would love to see your A-line style dresses!
I was just at my salon and booked my pedicure for my wedding. Yay! But while I was there she asked what colour I was thinking of for my nails. I said mint green! Well turns out they don’t have an opi...
Today is 99 days until the wedding! Doesn’t seem like it’s that short of time. I spent part of the morning addressing invitations. I still have so much diy to do but I’ll get there! Anyone else at 99...
The cake tasting has been my favourite part so far! 😁 We're getting cupcakes from a local home baker with fabulous flavours. What are you doing?
