We are now under the 3 month mark for our wedding and I am decidedly beginning to panic..but within reason. As with many other aspects of the wedding, I had no idea what I wanted when it came to my wedding shoes. Heels or flats? Solid or a print? Sparkly or…just kidding, they were always going to be sparkly. I thought that maybe I wanted to have two pairs of shoes – one heels, and one flats, so I could wear the heels to the ceremony and the flats for the rest of the night. But wedding shoes can be…

Wedding Inspiration – Disney Wedding
It’s been a while since I wrote a wedding update post but trust me when I say that a lot of planning has happened since then!! We’re under 100 days now (!!??!!?!) and it’s getting to the point where I’m still excited but becoming equally stressed haha. I don’t have as many photos or bigger updates since the last post (it’s mostly smaller purchases now) so I figured today I’d do a different type of wedding post. Over a year ago now soon after we got engaged I wrote about some wedding inspiration and ideas we were throwing around at…

June 2017 Favorites
Welcome to this month’s Favorites post! June felt like it was both ridiculously long and flew by super quickly. I can’t believe we are already halfway through 2017. Babyliss Pro Nano Titanium Straightening Iron When my pals were here last month, one of the little things I loved was getting ready together. Ana had brought her straightener with her and I was curious to see how it worked on me, a person with hair that cannot hold a style to save my life. But I was really surprised when it worked super well on me! I loved the look so…

Wedding Inspiration
We’re still in the very early stages of our wedding planning, but at this point we’ve got our venue and date, so it’s at least something! I wanted to keep track of ideas and cool things that I like to come back to when we get further in the planning process. These are some of the things that have caught my eye and found a home on my wedding pinterest board. We decided on purple and grey as our colors because we want our wedding to be classy, but fun. I just love the way the colors look together: Sources: top…

My Wedding Planner
Today’s post is inspired by the fact that Chris and I officially booked our wedding venue today!!! The Chraela wedding will be February 2, 2018! 🙂 In this post I’ll be talking all about my Erin Condren Wedding Planner. After we got engaged, I was super excited to jump into wedding planning. I am a planner in every sense of the word. I use a binder-style planner with inserts to keep my life together, and I’m sure at some point on this blog I will have some posts dedicated to my spreadsheet obsession. I’m a very hands-on, plan-it-yourself type of person, and I knew…
