#WeddingWednesday

Congratulations to our bride Kizzy and her husband John!
The couple were married on June 28th. Kizzy shopped and purchased her gown in 2011. She was thrilled with her gown " I wanted something timeless, elegant, simple and beautiful. I purchased my gown only having tried on the dark gray sample. And ordered it in a plain white. After purchasing my gown it hung in the closest. I never tried it on. I went to a seamstress in May 2014 and the dress zipped up and fit like a glove. It was perfect and meant to be" Kizzy said. We couldn't agree more!
Kizzy and her husband did a completely DIY wedding, " We went for a country chic theme. Lots of burlap and lace with shades of purple and orange as accents" Kizzy mentioned.
Kizzy and John wanted to keep their wedding family focused "Our 2.5 year old daughter loved to run under our arms as we said our vows and it added a little special kid - like touch to the event" Kizzy said.
The couple had many small touches that made their wedding unique, including a candy buffet!
Kizzy mention that the most memorable part of the day was when she fell three times at the reception, " I was trying to grab my 2.5 year old and stepped on the front of my dress. Tried to get up and stood.on the train. Then slipped again when everyone rushed over to lift me up. It was a Great laugh for everyone, including me!" Glad you are ok, Kizzy, sounds too funny!
Kizzy left us with this statement that brought a tear to our eye, "It was a beautiful day, of course we had hiccups as all weddings do. But it's our story, which makes it my favorite one".

12 Things Brides Forget Before Their Wedding Day

BRING EXTRA SHOES! Those gorgeous heels you bought? Yeah, by the time the reception rolls around your feet will be killing you! Bring an extra pair of flats so you can keep dancing and socializing the night away. You’ll thank me later. Decide what to do with the gifts. This is often forgotten during the wedding planning process, but still pretty important thing to remember! Make sure you assign someone to pack up the gifts and tell them where to take them. Especially if you are leaving on your honeymoon that night! You don’t want to decide what to do with them after you have had a few glasses of champagne. ;) Assign someone responsible to take care of the marriage license! Your officiant will take two copies and one is your souvenir. (Yes, you will sign three of them.) Make sure you don’t ask your cousin who has had 4 possibly 6 drinks that night already. A pretty hanger for your wedding dress. Since your dress will be photographed you want to make s...

REAL TALK. How to be A Good Bridesmaid

We all know that being a bridesmaid is a blessing AND a curse. Buying a dress that 1. you don’t like and 2. UGH that price tag though! We all know that sometimes being asked to be in a wedding is extremely frustrating. However, when your best friend asks you to be in her wedding it’s hard to not feel honored! She loves you and wants you by her side for the most important day of her life. Please be seated class! Remember that she might be stressed out, and don’t take it personal. She may be stressed because everyone is in her ear telling her what she should do. Ask her if she needs help and most likely she will need it, but might not want to ask. You may not care about all the details, but she does! A good friend will shut up about her wanting paper flowers instead of real ones and help her make “said” paper flowers. She will change her mind at least a dozen times. I am SOOO guilty of this. In this day and age with pinterest, instagram, wedding blogs, and facebook i...
