This is not my first post about my future honeymoon and this certainly isn’t the last. Can you blame me? The winters in Kansas City last a littttle too long for comfort so I gotta dream of beaches and piña coladas to get me through them! We had a deliciously warm (uh…relatively warm) weekend and it was amazing. It gave me a taste of what’s to come! Bring on the swim suits and sunnies!

P.S.- I mentioned it here but the honeymoon is a complete surprise! Tad booked it in an unknown location with plans of me finding out on our flight there! The only clues are that I’ll need to bring beach wear and a passport. He only has to keep it a secret for just 4.5 more months… Let’s see if he can do it!

Below are some items I’m currently coveting! I can’t wait to pack for seven glorious days at this secret location.

Essie- Candy Apple

Jouer- Cherish Lip Gloss

Banana Republic- Ashbury Tote

Oasap Limited- Angled Cat Eye Sunglasses

J.Crew- Polka-dot Bandeau Twist Top and Bikini

J.Crew- Textured Summer Straw Hat

Marc by Marc Jacobs- Simplicity Demi Wedge

Bobbi Brown- ‘Beige Shimmer’ Brick Compact

Happy Tuesday!

honeymoon, ideas, Wedding

YOU GUYS. It’s like less than 5 months till the wedding.

Holy goodness. Talk about excitement!!! I reallllly need to soak up these next few months as my life starting July 1st will be very busy and not as fabulous as a wedding and honeymoon (HA.). I’m super excited to finally start residency (14 years in the making, yo!) but I’ve got some serious wedding fever and don’t really want to think about 16 hour days quitttte yet.

I have almost all of the vendors booked, my dress picked out, the bridesmaids all beautified, and the gentlemen all tuxedo’d out but it’s the little details I need to plan now!

So… what are some things that really stand out at a wedding? What do you all find the most memorable? From my experience, the littlest details are some that I really remember. I’d love to know your thoughts!

Below are some fabulous ideas I’ve seen on the web recently. The stress of the wedding hasn’t hit yet but I’m sure it will at some point. In the mean time, with all of these wedding ideas sprouting up around the web, it makes me want to plan at least 5 different weddings! Ha.

engagement, ideas, planning, Wedding

It’s Wednesday, folks! It’s almost the weekend! I’ve been doing some serious wedding planning lately and it’s made me absolutely giddy!

I’m definitely loving this engagement time. So many people have told us to soak up this time together….it’s such a special time. And heck, you’re only engaged once! We have the rest of our lives to be married! We’ve definitely taken those words to heart. We can’t wait to be married but we are loving every bit of right now. The planning part isn’t exactly up Tad’s alley but we’re having fun with it. We are a little less than 10 months out and lots of details are coming together! The stress and crunch-time has yet to hit so I may be singing a different tune in a few months. For now, I am having one heck of a time being Tad’s fiancé and planning a fabulous wedding!

Here are some fantastic ideas I stumbled upon this week:
