In honor of Stachursky hosting concerts on the West Coast here's one of my favorites (yes, I admit I like some of his songs ;)

When Eloping Starts to Look Very Tempting

So I'm at that place in wedding planning when I'm starting to understand why people elope. Planning a wedding is tough, with a lot of emotions, money, family dynamics and decisions involved. Some brides may have a better knack for this stuff, but I'm definitely feeling a bit overwhelmed by it all. Then again, I think eloping wouldn't necessarily be the answer to our problems (just imagining our parents reactions terrifies me a bit) but when I see beautiful elopements like these I just can't help but wonder...

Disco Polo Friday: The Latest Pick

Said Yes to the Dress!

 

Soo after many trials and tribulations with this whole wedding dress business, I finally said yes to a dress!! With the help of my sisters and mama of course :) There really is SO MUCH PRESSURE on a bride when it comes to choosing a dress. I never really felt that until it was finally time to pull the trigger and decide. That's when it dawned on me. Holy sh*t. This is the dress I'm gonna be married in. And that ladies and gentlemen is when things got real.

It wasn't an easy decision for me. Did I mention I hate making decisions?? So after several visits to various bridal salons, some persuasive opinions from my sisters and a firm desire to stick to a decision-making deadline, I finally got my dress! It's weird to describe how I feel exactly: excited, relieved yet also a bit nervous and anxious. The list goes on. All I know is that at the end of the day, the most important thing is I'm getting married! Holla!! My awesome fiancé will absolutely love whatever I'm wearing ♥ and I will rock my dress like nobody's business ;)

Disco Polo Friday: Another Gem

Are You Bored Yet?

OK, let's be honest here. When you have more than a year to plan a wedding, you have several months of wedding-related discussions. From colors to music to flowers, etc, etc. Which leads me to my point: are you bored yet? As fascinating as your wedding sounds to you in your head (or at least mine does to me ha!) it really isn't that interesting to other people. My rational mind knows this and I try to keep the wedding talk at bay. So listen up brides and grooms, that is why you have each other: to vent and talk and talk and talk some more about your wedding till ya turn blue. But for your friends' and families' sakes, try to change the topic from time to time! (I am actively trying this advice myself :)
