I am a full time bakery manager/deaf education student and so excited to marry Dillon. We met when we both worked in a retail grocery store and became good friends. Fast forward 2 years and we finally started dating. After a year together we bought our first house, adopted our fur baby George and got engaged! Now I spend my time between work/school/gym/wedding planning/homework/friends/family/fiance lol. Yea it's a lot but I am so blessed to have a life filled with so much to do!

3102 days agoSo FH & I aren't really cake people. We decided to go with cheesecake and do a dessert table. 12 large cheesecakes from an AMAZING bakery with 6 seasonal flavors. But FH brought up the fact that he still wants a cake topper. I didn't even think about...

3152 days agoI had this whole idea in my head of what a "fall wedding dress" should look like. You know, lace, sleeves, etc. Then I tried this dress on and I fell in love. This dress makes me feel amazing and everything else I tried on I keep comparing to this...
