On Wednesday I was able to speak to Felice Killian of Felice Designs. We immediately hit it off! We are actually at very similar places in our lives and we had a great conversation. My mom was diagnosed with Larynx cancer in November and is currently undergoing Chemo and Radiation. Right now she is doing great! She [...]

So the wedding is getting close! I can’t believe it is less than 3 months away. My mom and sister are planning a bridal shower in Spartanburg in February. I can’t wait! They are having the shower at a place called Theodore Morris. It is a beautiful little shop across from Converse College. My mom [...]

I think one of the most exciting parts of wedding planning for a bride is picking out her dress. When I found out we won the contest, I was thrilled to get the opportunity to wear a dress from Maddison Row!
When I went down to Charleston for the weekend, I was able to go by [...]

We met our photographer, Lea Dales, for lunch at the Mills House. The lunch was amazing and it was great to talk to Lea about the wedding and details of the photos. Lea was great and had some awesome ideas for the wedding pictures.
Erik and I love photos. I actually did photography for about 5 [...]

Well the wedding is coming fast and we still have a ton of planning to do! Erik still has to decide on his groomsmen’s attire. We wanted to switch it up a bit. Rather than a regular tux, we wanted to do something a little more southern. I was thinking a blue blazer, with khaki [...]

So we finally registered at Macy’s! It was actually a very enjoyable experience. We went completely unprepared, we did not have any lists made or even ideas of what we needed but luckily, Rhonda, the wedding registry consultant, was a huge help! She gave us a list of items most couples need when they start [...]

So, today I went to my friend, Julie’s bridal shower. I am so excited for her! She is marrying an amazing guy named Andrew and they are just adorable together. They actually dated all through high school and then went their separate ways for college. Years later, fate brought them both to Nashville, TN (which [...]

Well unfortunately Erik and I have a slightly different taste in music. We both tend to love good ol’ 90’s rock (you know Stone Temple Pilots, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Weezer) but we seem to disagree in the country and rap categories. I pretty much love country and rap and Erik, well let’s just say he [...]

This past Friday I flew into Charleston and met with Sara from Something to Celebrate and the ladies at the CVB. We discussed all of the details of the wedding (and there are a lot!). It was fun to start brainstorming about the wedding theme, colors, and menu! I knew I wanted a “southern” wedding [...]

I checked out other weddings she has done in the past on her website, http://www.mysomethingtocelebrate.com, and [...]
