    Whew! What a week it’s been! I had my bridal shower on Monday and it was beyond anything I could have dreamed up. Can’t wait to share more photos from the day. I am so lucky to have such talented people working on making this wedding so incredible. Adam got home from Europe on Tuesday from a buying trip in London and Paris. I’m happy to have him back home and happy to have eaten all of the macarons he brought back with him. We are headed to Santa Barbara tomorrow for our dear friends wedding and we are beyond excited to be guests!! What are you doing this weekend?…

    March madness has taken on a whole new meaning this year! Between wedding season starting for Megan, Adams travel schedule, Megans bridal shower, baby showers, friends weddings (we get to be guests, OMG!) and springtime shoots…phew! It’s been a whirlwind! We have a wedding free weekend and guys, we’re going to Disneyland AND doing our dessert tasting for the wedding. Best weekend ever? Probably. Here’s to an excellent (and warm) weekend! Loving this concrete vase. I smell a trip to Lowe’s happening over here. When you can’t actually afford a real marble counter top, fake it till you make it. No but really, make it. I think I found a…

    Our Wedding / Bridal Shower Dresses

    I’m starting a new thing, Wedding Wednesday, a day to share wedding business and shenanigans. If you could care less about wedding plans then feel free to just skip the blog on Wednesdays. Easy as that (insert winky emoji here). With that said, in a little less than two weeks I’ll be lunching with the most important women in my life for my own bridal shower…WHAT!? It’s all so surreal. We sent out our invites at the end of February and getting the rsvp’s back is a total trip! We keep thinking “people are actually coming to this giant party we’ve been planning, this is really happening!!!” Back to the…

    Kitchen Floors / Before and After

    So, we all know that rental kitchens are gross. It’s usually old, nasty linoleum that was probably on clearance when they needed it so they just grabbed whatever was the cheapest, it has paint speckled all over it from one too many crappy cabinet paint jobs and has chips in it from who knows what. Our apartment is adorable, mostly. Great original hardwood floors, rounded ceilings, a darling faux fireplace, but the kitchen…..ohhh the kitchen. It needed some work. After over a year of living in this space and being grossed out by the kitchen floors on the daily we needed a change but obviously didn’t want to put new…

    Our Wedding / Finding “the dress”

    I have a confession to make…I actually bought my wedding dress before we were engaged. In my defense we had been planning our wedding for a couple of months already. We knew we wanted to get married in May and after reading about “the perfect time to buy your dress” I soon found out that the ideal time to buy one is 6-9 months before and we were already six months out. Insert freak out moment here. So the search began. A dress designer I loved was having a trunk show and there was only one day that I could go so I flew down my Mom and Aunt from…
