4322 days agoI made fabric flower bouquets for me and my 2 bridesmaids, so I decided to DIY the boutonnieres (& corsages, at some point) so that I didn't have a mix of fabric & real flowers. I was happy with how the bouts turned out until last night when I showed...

4325 days agoA few weeks ago, I posted about my first makeup trial and about how I was really unhappy with it. Before switching MUA's, I wanted to give my MUA another try. I'm glad I did-- the second trial was MUCH better than the first. I asked her to add more...

4344 days agoI work in a super-small office, and I usually spend my evenings either at home or at the gym. Looking at my boring khaki's, worn-out Mary Janes, and goodwill-purchased purple cotton shirt today, I realized that I am COMPLETELY out of the loop when it...

4346 days agoFor those of you who did (or are doing) a first look, what location did you (will you) use?? Did you take them indoors or outdoors? Was there a secluded location at your ceremony venue, or did you take them before traveling to the venue? We are...

4363 days agoI'm so excited for the weekend! I'm having my first makeup trial tomorrow morning, then we're going to discuss catering with our first catering option (it's an Italian restaurant, and I LOVE Italian, so I'm hoping they can work with our budget)......
