Yay Football Season!

Its finally football season. As much as I complain and whine that Jeff is gone. I absolutely loove football season. i love everything about it tailgating, drinking beer, watching jeff play, the parade they do before the games, having friends and family come and visit North Carolina, getting to wear all my black clothing i own. I definitely lucked out with his team colors because half of my closet is black and white. I'm so ready to be up there. I am heading off tomorrow morning, hopefully I may not have to work so that would be great as I am so excited to see Bri and Chelsea! I was surprised when Jeff told me he was slightly nervous, but I am sure he is feeling a million different emotions because this is his last first game of the season. He said this is a lot of lasts for me this season. Its definitely bittersweet for me.
But watch the game if you have nothing to do on your saturday afternoon. 3:30 on ABC. Goo Deacs & # 64

Heres a picture of Jeffrey and their football schedule is on the bottom of the poster in case anyone wants to become a demon deacon fan. =)

Real Wedding Tuesday

I think I have mentioned on here about Soiree Events and how I would love to have a wedding in Charleston, South Carolina so they could do my wedding. They are just simply amazing. Here is another example of their work that leave me speechless.

Veils

Well I do not have a veil for my dress. I can not find the right one to match the coloring of my dress or the look I want. My dress it not white but it is not ivory, it is a shade in between so it has been pretty difficult to find the perfect veil. My dress does need a few alterations so the lady that will be altering my dress actually makes custom veils. I was real excited to find that out and she does a really awesome job with the ones I have seen so far. I will be bringing these pictures to her to show the kind of veil I want. But I also added some more pictures because this wedding was just really amazing out in Arizona.

Etsy Find

Well my birthday weekend was awesome! Friday some friends came over and we had a great time eating, drinking and playing catch phrase. Saturday I just relaxed all day with my friend Liz then I went to dinner at Bonefish with Lauren for drinks and appetizers so it was a great weekend.

I am a true etsy lover. I have bought quite a few things off of it for the wedding and also just household items. I came across some of these pillows and just thought they were really cute. Of course the grey color is my favorite but I like the second picture design the best. But look at some of her different ruffle designs. I think im going to purchase some for our bedroom.

Birthday!

Well it is my birthday today, so I am going to take the weekend off from wedding planning and just relax and not stress for a bit. My wedding invitations came in but the color was a little to bright for what I was expecting so the girl is going to tweak the design and reprint them for me. But they overall look really great. So that is definitely a check off the list. Now I just have to finalize all the addresses and send it all to the calligrapher in Gainesville.

But I just got called off work, so I'm going to enjoy the day of doing nothing and then I am having some friends come to my parents house tonight for dinner and just to hang out. So it should be a great weekend. I think I might even move some more stuff into our house. Because before I knew it next weekend football starts so I am going to be on the go so much!

Have a great weekend Everyone! Heres a picture of me when I was real young, I only have it on my computer because I have been working on our slideshow. Oh how things change. I wish my hair was still that color.

Wedding Videography

I have no idea why but I have been so emotional lately about the weddding. I get stressed but so excited and start crying its ridiculous. But I was watching these amazing wedding videos by Serendipity Videography. They are out of Arizona I believe and if they only lived in Florida I would hire them in a second. They are just so amazing and so special to have in the long run. I never really thought I would want a videographer that much but now I am second guessing myself. I am going to start looking into tonight. I spent about 45 minutes and watched 3 videos and cried in each one of them. Go Check it out at serendipityvideography.com

Happy Anniversary and Real Bridal Shower

First I wanted to say Happy Anniversary to my parents. They have been together for 30 years as of today. If Jeff and I have half the marriage they have we will be set. They are truly a great example of a successful loving marriage.

But on to today's Real Wedding. I have been seeing alot of wedding lately but none really catch my eye. But I did however see a Bridal Shower that is right up my alley. I am so into details its a bit ridiculous, but this is definitely a job well done.

Happy Birthday Mom!!

Its my amazing mom's birthday today! She is my best friend and so awesome I could not imagine my life without her. But we are off to celebrate with the family. We always say this is our favorite week of the year because her birthday is today, my parents anniversary tomorrow and my birthday is Friday. So we celebrate every night all week. But I could not find a recent picture of my mom and me so this one is about 4 years old. But it will do.

Different Colored Bridesmaid Dresses

I saw this picture of a bride and her bridesmaids and I just loved how all the bridesmaids had different dresses and were wearing different shades. I think it really looked great. I also loved the brides dress a lot.

Flowers

Well when I think of a wedding three things come to mind: chairs, linens, and FLOWERS. I am in love with flowers and think they make any event you go to. Today I had the pleasure of meeting with my florist, Bill Wilson. He is absolutely amazing and really one of the best in the Jacksonville area. We just sit and talk for hours when I go see him. He just completely gets me when it comes to my vision. He definitely makes me feel at ease. He told me if he has to describe what he is doing for me it would be crystals, candles, and flowers. I was like my three favorite things in a nutshell. But I haven't really posted any of my inspiration pictures for flowers yet, so I will show a couple.
