Venue run down

That's Heather my fabulous friend and wedding planner. (amorologyweddings.com) and Omar my caterer. We're doing a walk through today.




They've got everything covered. So happy and I'm not stressed at all. This wedding is going to be AMAZING!!

Valentino Shoes

I'm kind of LOVING these Valentino shoes for my wedding. Are they vintage, rustic? Not really but I'm OBSESSED!!

Up or down

That is the question! I'm trying to figure out how to wear my hair. I've been obsessing over braids and thinking I want some light braids to the side like this...

 

Or maybe a little mess look like this one. Kind of a little to mid summer night dream right?

 

My friend Meg turned me on to  Cup of Jo which has hair style tutorials. Check it here. Here are some of my favorites from the site. 

Messy side ponytail....SO CUTE!

Back buns...LOVE!

 If you know of any cute hairstyle blogs send them my way!! I'm doing my trial run at the end of the month. FUN TIMES!! xoxo ML

Tin Look

I like the big tin vase with large white flowers and the sunflower below. The fruit gives it a outdoor feel. Thinking this would be cute for our wedding.

Marriage License

I just called the county clerk in SD to talk about getting a marriage license. I'm a bit to early he said. See in San Diego you have to call to make an appointment to pick up your marriage license in PERSON. He said he doesn't make appointments farther then 3 months out...wooops! Ok, so I'm a little eager..ha! I'll be talking to him in a month or so. YEAH!!

          For those of you getting married in SD the number to call to get a license is: 619 237-0502

Who would have known you can win $1000 for making a dress out of toilet paper!

Inspired by nature. She used flowers and feathers and balanced the dress with pleats on the bodice. She used 4 rolls of Toilet Paper, hot glue, and packing tape.

                                    Laura Lee from Milpitas, CA took second place for $500

Inspired by how new brides want to look and feel in their wedding dresses. She used 5 rolls of one-ply Toilet Paper, transparent duct tape, first aid tape and spray adhesive. Her friend Michelle helped her put the dress together. 

Cynthia Richards from Marietta, GA takes 3rd place for $250

She used 20 rolls of Toilet Paper, Duct Tape, Hot Glue, Mod Podge Glue and Fabric Glue. Her 8 year old daughter Rainey helped her with her dress. 

Personally I think Cynthia should have won.
