Wedding Favors
The Candy Buffet
So this is definitely a work in progress folks! I'm just posting so you can get an idea of where I'm going with it and how it will be, maybe even a few suggestions would be helpful!
I am going to have in total like 10-12 jars. For the really large 2, one will have the oreos with the pink creme in the middle, and the other will have those pink and white animal cookies with the sprinkles on them. I don't know the exact name lol. I am pretty happy with how they all turned out.
The list of candy so far:
- Black licorice candy sticks
- Pink candy sticks
- Pink lemonade chewies
- Baskin Robbins hard candy in cookies n creme flavor
- Good n Plenties
- Pink cherry flavored rock candy
- Pink creme Oreos
- Pink n white animal cookies
- black, pink, & white jumbo gumballs
- Hershey mini candy bars wrapped with personalized labels

Bridal Shower
My girls rock!!
We had my bridal shower last weekend and let me tell you, I HAD A BLAST!!! My bridesmaids really made it look great, and I could tell they really put a lot of time and effort into making it a special day for me. I also had the most amazing cake EVER! Not only did it look fabulous but it tasted even better! It was from a bakery here in Las Vegas called Retro Bakery! I would recommend them to any and everyone!!!

happy planning ladies!

Invitation Proof!!!
Here they are! I am doing a hot pink pocket fold invitation and inside it has two inserts, and it will also have a customized calligraphy map insert as well, ( just haven't received that proof yet!) I am totally in love with them! The woman who is doing them is a dream! I would recommend anyone who needs invitations to her! Her name is Lucia for Little Spark Creations on Etsy and her website is posted below!

My DIY card box so far!
So this is the card box I have been working on the past two days! It's actually coming along pretty nicely! I still have to add the slot for the cards, and embellish the middle box a little more too. I am considering doing an "S" at the top thats blinged out in pink crystals, just not a 100% sure yet if thats what I want to do. Thoughts everyone!?

Wedding Shoes
My shoes are here!!!
I have been anxiously waiting for a week to recieve my shoes! They got here today and I couldn't be more happy with them!!! They are the perfect color, the right height, everything is perfect! When I opened the box it was like love at first site all over again hehe :)) I actually got the last pair when I ordered them so I was super nervous they might not fit right or something would go wrong in transit to my house but luckily it's all good! Everything is coming together so nicely! I love it!

Wedding Flowers
Finally found my florist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First and foremost, I'M BACK! Took a little blogging hiatus, not bc I wanted to, but bc our computer was down for a while! Nevertheless I am back and ready to share share share!
Who knew that finding a florist would be so difficult in Las Vegas. Well let me rephrase that, who knew finding an AFFORDABLE florist would be so difficult!? Luckily I found the nicest florist and who is willing to do the flowers for a reasonable price! They even have it to where I might be able to purchase centerpieces through them rather than making them myself! Keeping my fingers crossed on that one! So excited to share with you the bouquets I picked out! They are absolutely PERFECT!!!

HAPPY PLANNING ALL!!!

XOXO

It's going to be hot pink, black and white. I am all about the BLING and I will be incorporating some feathers in the mix as well. We are high school sweethearts, going on 7 years, and our wedding is going to be about one thing: LOVE <3
