    Wedding Week Preparations & DIYs!

    We’re going a bit out of order here on our wedding posts but who really cares anyway? Today I’m writing all about the last minute preparations and DIYs that we did the week of the wedding! This will basically be a catch-all for the little DIY things we did that don’t really warrant their own post, but I wanted to write about somewhere anyway. My parents drove down to Florida a few days before the wedding, and with them came all of the DIY things that they had been working on at home. My mom already wrote a separate post…

    Hi and welcome to another wedding post! This is going to be a big one – today we’re talking about how we made the bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages for my wedding from sola flowers!

    Epcot Flower & Garden Festival 2017

    One of the things I love the most about Epcot is the amazing festivals that happen all year long. I wrote about Food & Wine a few months ago and Holidays Around the World after that, and now that it’s spring we have the Flower & Garden Festival!! I absolutely love Flower & Garden because Epcot looks SO beautiful in full bloom!! There’s flowers everywhere and it just makes the park look so springy and lovely. In the Food & Wine post linked up there I wrote about some of my tips for experiencing the food of the festival. They also…

    Friday Favorites #3 – 2/3

    It’s that time again! I’ve started to really enjoy these Friday Favorites posts, because they let me talk about things that are too small to feature in their own post but still worth mentioning 🙂 Eating Samples at Costco Starting things off right….lol. So my parents gave me a Costco membership for Christmas, and Chris and I went there this week to get new tires for my car. While we waited, we walked around the store eating all the samples, and I truly forgot how much fun it is hahah. We tried fancy cheese, sandwiches, chicken wings, cheeseburgers, yogurt, trail mix…it was…
