Just a few thoughts from a simple girl as I try to plan a wedding amidst the craziness of my life...

About Me

I am 25 year old getting ready for our nuptials on May 01, 2010. I am currently a graduate student majoring in Occupational Therapy. I love to write and I love weddings (well I used to). I thought it would be a great way to blend a few of my loves into a blog. Sit back and enjoy while I attempt to juggle planning a wedding on a budget while doing schoolwork. So let the madness begin!!

I've got the Itch!

So...I've been really busy lately with school and my semi planning of the wedding. Everything is kind of at a stand still right now until I get the budget sorted out. I made a list of to dos for my maids of honors and I have A LOT of stuff to do. Nothing impossible, just a lot. I would love to hand everything over to a wedding planner but I still want to have a hand in my own wedding. I want to look around and see things that I did. So I am determined to be a DIY type of bride. Here are a few things I found on Theknot.com that I really like so far. Not really sure if I want to use them or if they go with my theme, but I like the way they look.

I've been really thinking along the lines of royal type decor which seems to be more accurately described as French Moderne. The lines are very sophisticated and dainty and that is kind of what is in my mind for the reception and wedding.




This one is kinda cutesy but I think it serves it purpose.





And this is exactly the kind of look I want to capture for the receptions with accents of purple of course, to tie in the whole royalty thing.
What do you think?


So..on a whole other note, I've decided to try and look for another job, one that uses my writing skills. I emailed someone yesterday and I'm actually really excited about it. I don't know if anything will come from it but it will fun if I get it.

Future Authoress in your prescence

I am a woman who enjoys hobbies, albeit I have dabbled in a few. I am what one would call a serial hobby participater. I like crocheting so I purchased a book and started to create a fabulous scarf. Pretty soon, my scarf started to become narrower and I was unable nor had the patience to fix it. I nixed that hobby shortly after. Then I went through my friendship bracelet phase. I bought loads of yarn and had a grand ole time making intricate knots. My keychains were ridiculous, I could not find my keys. I grew out of that phase, it was a tad juvenile for my taste. The one hobby that has always been steadfast was my love for words. I love to write and create stories. I have seriously been thinking about getting published as soon as i finish typing my stuff up. I am actually starting on a new novel, though I am not sure where I will find the time with school and all this wedding planning business.
