Happy Friday!

So working 60+ hours this week was not in the plan but it's ok because it's Friday. It's time to go to the beach and sip some cocktails. We have 22 days left til the wedding and I've got the butterflies! Have a great weekend!

Beach Bum

Proof that I've always been a beach bum!

My Weekend

There was a wedding on Saturday and my bridal shower on Sunday. It was busy busy busy but it was one of the greatest weekends I've ever had. A huge thank you to all my family and friends for making my shower so special! Only 25 days to go folks!

An Early Weekend

It's a short week again for me. I'm so excited because in a few hours I get to see my Mom and little sis! They are coming up for the weekend for a bunch of reasons. Tomorrow is my second (and hopefully last) dress fitting, then on Saturday we get to meet up with the rest of my sisters and attend an old family friends wedding. Then on Sunday, my sisters are throwing me a bridal shower! I'm very much looking forward to this family filled weekend. It's just what I need. Hope yours is lovely!

Our Wedding Invitations

With only a month to go, I think it's a good time to share our wedding invitations that we designed. Overall, wedding planning really hasn't been as bad as I thought it would be but the invitations were definitely one of the harder parts. Being a designer and designing your own invites can be pretty stressful as you want them to be absolutely perfect. We were pretty happy when we got them back from the printer and we were even happier once they were out the door. 

The invitations were letterpress printed on 130# Strathmore paper by Paper Boutique.

Aria

Normally I would say that I'm not a cruise person but I have to say this little cruise is now at the top of my vacation list. Cruising around the Peruvian jungle and ending up in Machu Picchu sounds pretty alright to me.

My Weekend

The pictures from this weekend are pretty boring - sorry about that! We had a full beach day on Saturday and Sunday was all about preparing for this week. I made a lot of summer salads and used this and this recipe. I highly recommend both. Stay tuned for photos of our wedding invitations! Hope you had a lovely weekend. Can you believe it's August?!?
