Wedding Inspiration: Unique Guest Books

As you may know (since it seems to be one of the only things I can talk about these days), I’m in the midst of wedding planning. It has been surprisingly more fun than stressful, but I owe that mostly to my amazing wedding planner. She worries about the big plans like the food, venue, tables, chairs, etc and I get to worry about the fun little details that personalize [...]

DIY Swimsuit Wrap for Summer

I have 5 best girlfriends from high school and I feel like one lucky lady. The older we get, the harder it is to see each other, but we still manage to make it work.

My pile is getting rather [...]

The brunch started many years ago, bringing together a group of friends for a holiday get together in December. Since Dotty and my mom passed, the ladies invited the daughters to join in their place and I am sure glad I get to be part of this fun tradition. The [...]

Gobble Gobble at Your Table

Ever notice that when you have all the time in the world to do something, you get absolutely nothing done? I feel like now that I have a full time job and am busy most of the day, I keep myself busy even in my downtime, like writing this blog for example.

Make Your Own Tea Bags

I am currently planning my first tea party, and hopefully there will be many more to come. I was going to do a practice tea party with my girlfriends for my soon-to-be tea party planning business, but an occasion arose! Now it is going to be a graduation tea party for my friend that is getting her masters in library science. It isn’t until June, but I am starting the [...]
