Wedding Wednesday

So tomorrow morning some of my fave ladies and I are heading down to Charleston for my bachelorette party. I can hardly wait! M and B, two of my close friends have put so much time and energy into planning a great getaway and I can't thank them enough. I picked up these adorable presents for them!

A lot of the ladies will be arriving tonight so we will be heading out to 519, a favorite college bar here in Greenville to celebrate St. Patricks Day. Thursday morning we will be heading to Folly Beach to get our party on. I don't know a lot of the details. I know that we are staying in a house on the main drag and that the lovely ladies have made us "Beach Bar" night tees and that we will be heading into downtown Charleston for a limo night, but other than those tid bits, I have no idea what to expect. My only request was "NO STRIPPERS" which I believe that I have repeated enough times to have come true! I hope that I can find a rehearsal dinner dress on the trip as well, keep your fingers crossed for me! I can't hardly wait to spend this time with the girls and don't worry, I will be sharing pictures upon my return!

Lovely List

It's never too late for a bit more inspiration...

In the mean time I will be think calm thoughts brought on by these soothing rooms.

I am really beginning to think that I want to have a completely neutral home. I don't think that there is anything boring about these shots.

Mutual Admiration...Wedding Wednesday

I looked at the Knot today and low and behold, my wedding is only 87 days away. To some people that won't sound remotely monumental but to me it's insane. I know that I have said it before, but when I signed up for the Knot it was 700 and something odd days until my planning would be done. I want to use today to thank all of the incredible friends and family members for all of their support. I feel blessed on a daily basis to have you all in my life and don't know what I would do without your continuous encouragement.

There is so much to look forward to in the next year, I can hardly stand it! I'm taking control of my life professionally and with each step I take in that direction, I am reminded of how fortunate I am in other aspects of my life. I feel like I have my own cheerleading squad encouraging me on my way. Invitations for my first shower will be in the mail soon and planning for the most AMAZING bachelorette party is in full swing and I am just bubbling with anticipation to spend this time with people who mean so much to me! I just want to remind you how much I love and appreciate you all. I'm just so darn excited and so lucky to have you all by my side!

love, S

Fabu

I totally want this...

I think I missed my era. Full skirts, fur stoles, hat boxes, what's not to love?
