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!

1900 days agoMy appliques arrived today! Took 3 weeks but I love them even more in person! They are even prettier in person, my pic doesn't do the colour justice. I'm adding 3d flowers and beading to my mom's 50 year old mantilla lace veil to go along with my...

1908 days agoThis is actually really bothering me. I have terrible time ocd. I have to know what time it is at all times. I'm either checking my watch or phone and usually have a clock in sight too. This ocd is much higher when I need to be or do something at a...

1910 days agoI just made what I hope to be my FH's boutonniere but I'm worried it's too long. What do you think? If I remove the top rose gold shimmer leaf then it's nearer 5 inches. Honest opinions please!

1917 days agoI love my FMiL. She is a wonderful person who was a single mom who worked hard her life to raise her son who I also obviously love. While she will never be like a mom to me I would like to say we are friends. My FH and I don't live together...I have...

1919 days agoThe saga of my veil I've posted on the wedding attire board, but basically I'm using my mom's 51 year old mantilla chapel veil but making it my own by adding beading and lavender appliques. When my dad gave me the veil last weekend I asked him if mom...

1920 days agoMy FH is not romantic at all, it's not in his genetics. I've learned that he shows me he loves me in a lot of other ways. So when he says things that are sweet or romantic it really makes me smile. I mentioned that I was making donuts for my son for...

1921 days agoWhile the venue we chose is right for us for many reasons one of the reasons is because the wedding/event coordinator is my FH's cousin! Well, when we met in January she said they didnt book until a year out but our date was safe with her, a contract...

1921 days agoOkay my veil saga continues! 😁 So, my dad gave me my mom's lace chapel length veil last weekend. I wanted to give it a change to go with my lavender wedding dress by adding lavender embellishments. Well I went to my local seamstress who gets amazing...

1923 days agoI never really thought about it before but on another post about horrible carpets in venues it made me think about the horrible bright swirly carpet at the hotel ballroom Im getting married in. Is anyone else using an aisle runner in an indoor...

1925 days agoSo I posted before about if I should wear a veil with my lavender gown and what type if I do. Well I was over at my dad's place this afternoon and chatting about the wedding. He pulls down a box from storage and along with all their wedding photos,...

1925 days agoI am starting to wish I can wear a veil on my big day. Not going to cover my face, but just a lovely one to make my dress more bridal. But with my wedding gown being lavender I'm not sure how a veil would look and while I love the birdcage type...

1926 days agoOkay, so I have my amazing Betsey Johnson shoes that I love and am wearing for the ceremony and cocktail hour, but even a high heel wearer like myself knows that I wont survive a night of dancing in 4.5" stilettos. So want to have a pair to change...

1932 days agoSo I've mentioned in other posts that Sophia Tolli is my favourite wedding dress designer. Every wedding dress pin before I was seriously looking were her gowns. I cannot afford her gowns so I never tortured myself looking when the time came. I...

1933 days agoSince I've been shopping for my wedding gown and on websites with evening gowns and cocktail dress it makes me wish I lived a life where I had occasions to wear those type of dresses. I wear gym clothes for work and on the weekends its leggings or...

1936 days agoSo I'm full of the cold, thanks to my kids, and nothing cheers me up more than shopping. I'm going to wear this dress in this colour for my rehearsal dinner (it's actually a David's bridal dress in apple red but I already have it for another special...
