Friday Favorites
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…

Business Casual
Working in a high end showroom has its perks. You get to work with interesting clients, beautiful furniture, art and you get to dress up. The only downside is, what do you wear when you need to get down and dirty? Most days I’m either moving furniture or polishing a wood piece which is why I think a casual formal outfit is best. I would love to wear a three piece suit but no one has time for that when you have to move a couch. Glasses – Tom Ford Blazer – Club Monaco Oxford Shirt – J. Crew Blue Chinos – Club Monaco Boots – Timberland

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…
