It is officially wedding season!!!




Christopher and I have 7 weddings to attend between April and August. Yeah, I know we're at that age. It's a cliche everyone keeps telling me, but it's true. These 7 aren't including any of the ones I get paid to do for Andria. Check out her website. Obviously, I LOVE weddings, if I didn't it would've been a poor career choice. 2 weeks ago, Christopher's childhood friend from Scouts, then later college roommate, Andy got married. Christopher served as best man. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see itbecause I was in Tunica at the River Park working a wedding that was absolutely gorgeous. It was definitely a weekend of weddings!


Christopher with the groom. I know I'm biased, but doesn't C look so handsome in his suit?

Jarvis, me and Andria with the happy couple.

Next weekend is another wedding filled weekend. Not only do I have a wedding on Sunday to coordinate, we have a couple's shower Saturday afternoon and then our good friends Ryan and Jessica are getting married Saturday night at the zoo. They're the (inadvertent) reason Christopher and I met. Well, them and Billy Idol.


Aren't they cute?

A whole month?! YIKES!

I go to my blog page daily, and I read all the blogs I follow daily. I get agitated when people go months at a time without updating. Hey, kettle? This is pot. You're black. I haven't blogged in a month! (as of tomorrow) I need to be more consistent with my blogging. I like the blogs that are always consistent with their posts. Always something new everyday. A few of my favorites are Pawley's Island Posh and Sweet Southern Prep. I ran across them while reading other blogs. I don't even know either of these ladies but I enjoy reading about other southern belles. Julia over at "Posh" always has inspiring decorating ideas and Lindsey over at "Prep" has theme days: "Wednesday Whereabouts" where she posts pics of places she's been and has you guess where it is and "Monday Manners" where she posts different southern traditions. Go check out these 2 ladies' blogs. I think you'll enjoy them as much as I do!
