A Texas Girl Exploring the World
Welcome to the first Wedding Wednesday post of the new year! Obviously, like so many couples around the world as well as several of our friends, Zac and I postponed our wedding from October 2020 to 2021. I know this is a difficult subject for a lot of people right now, but I’m hopeful that […]
It’s engagement season! Frankly, I think all year long is engagement season, but December is one of the most popular months to get engaged. Since we have a ton of weddings already on our calendar for next year, I’ve been talking with friends who are in the midst of wedding planning, and a big problem has […]
It’s time to talk budgeting! With #weddingseason seeming to never end (we are at 3/6 for this year and next year is filling up!), I thought this would be the perfect time to talk about a big expense- being in the bridal party! Being in a bridal party can get veerrryyy pricy. While there are […]
Now that I have been working for a few years, I have become pretty good at figuring out office dress codes- from business to super-casual, I’ve worked at offices across the spectrum. Right now, I’m in a fairly casual setting, but wanted to put together a list of items every working girl should own, regardless […]
This post has been YEARS in the making, but it’s finally here! As you know from talking to me or reading the blog for 5 seconds, Amsterdam is probably my favorite place in the world. I studied abroad there, we got engaged there, and if we won the lottery it’s the first place we would […]
Time for another wedding post! I hope y’all like these, because there are about to be a LOT over the next year and a half. Today, I wanted to share tips on something that was so foreign to me- trying on wedding dresses! I had gone with friends as a bridesmaid before, but in terms […]
It’s that time of year- wedding season! This is the first year where we have had multiple weddings (like, oh….5!!???), and we are both in the wedding party for one! If, like us, you are staring down the huge expense of multiple flights, attendant attire, guest attire, gifts, and any other expenses that come with […]
I’m nearly a year late but it’s finally here, my Sydney travel guide! After our trip, I wanted to be able to share all the sights we saw, restaurants and bars we loved, and a few tips to make your trip as easy as possible! Z and I spent 9 days in Sydney in the […]
There is some very exciting news around here- I am engaged!! While I’m sure I will share details at some point in a separate post, I am know knee-deep in wedding planning and researching everything. Who knew how much work went into this?? When we got engaged, once we had called friends and family and […]
HOW is Thanksgiving this week?? It feels like Halloween was yesterday (especially since we just took down our decorations) and summer was last week! I am not at all ready for Christmas- I need to buy gifts, get all my decorations out, start getting the house ready, etc. I love Thanksgiving so I’m trying to […]
