What the What?!

What is up with this snow right now? I'm talking a few inches of snow outside right and continuing to fall. A legit snow storm happening right now.  Cray Cray. (Did I really just say that?!)

And I am very sure there are a few more things to be added along the line. And My ultimate goal is to be don with everything by May 1. So I can enjoy the last month and not be stressed and running around. Let's see how that works out though.


And hopefully soon we will have our engagement shoot done and I can share!

What a Greene Wedding!

Welp. It's official. This gal is a Greene. With an E. 

We had us a glorious wedding this past Friday and it was an absolutely perfect day. Not only because I got to see my best friend marry the man of her dreams but because it was a wedding and the weather was perfect!

Wedding festivities started with a rehearsal dinner at the Chimney Rock Inn where we dined on some yummy apps, pizza and of course wine.

Received this pretty gift! Just the right amount of bling ;)

Wedding Wednesday: Goin' to the Chapel!

The next 3 days will be consumed with my best friend's wedding activities and I can't even describe the excitement. It's kind of like this...hsajdhsaihdwihwefbewjf!!! Yup, no words.

She's goin' to the chapel and she's gonna get marriedddd!





Better go finish that speech...


See you next week!

Wedding Wednesday

Right around that one year mark is when you start panicking thinking about your wedding dress that you don't have yet. Especially when you watch an episode of "Say Yes to the Dress" and the one woman isn't even engaged and she's shopping for her dress. Uh yea, Panic.

So appropriately this week, I want to look at wedding dresses so I can maybe I can start to narrow down what I am looking for. You will soon see how all over the place I am with my dress. One strap, strapless? Flower details or crystal details? Sweetheart neckline? Pick up skirt or taffeta? Let's have a look at all kinds.

I like the pick up in the front and the subtle light blue of that ribbon. I am thinking I want some sort of detail around the waist like this.

This gives a little something different for the bride that is looking for traditional but modern. The sweetheart neckline and top bodice have nice details to make it a classic look. And the bottom skirt gives it the modern flair as it's made with feathers.

Now this one defines elegance in my opinion. The wrap around crystal and intricate detail down the skirt. And then ending with the train to make for a truly elegant gown. Definitely loving the crystal detail and difference between silhouette and skirt.

Now this one goes a whole different way. A detachable skirt to let you go from ceremony to reception effortlessly. Clever idea for those fun first dances ;) But I'm not sure if I could walk around and not think about my skirt just coming off as I'm walking down the aisle. Yes, I have these thoughts. 

And then there is this nice free flowing wedding gown. The arms are quite interesting as they trail down the dress. Might be nice and airy under there but all I can see is a nightgown you wear to bed. Not the one for me.

Vera Wang. Enough said. And the sparkle catches my eye for sure. I am just not sure how my child bearing hips would shimmy into this. They could possibly steal the show and who knows if I could even walk.

It is now time to take all 150 of my favorites and bring them to a shop and say make the perfect dress out of all of these. Please and thank you.

Why do I get the feeling I will be making more than 5 trips to a bridal shop?

A very special wedding Wednesday!

Bringing to you a very special, exciting WEDDING WEDNESDAY!!

Let's start with that as of today...it is EXACTLY 100 days until my best friend's wedding!! Happy 100 Days away!!

100 days until I get to watch you stand beside you as your Maid of honor and watch you walk down the aisle. 100 days until you become a wifey! And tomorrow it becomes double digits...eeek!! Seriously can not wait!

And the number two excitement for this Wedding Wednesday...last weekend celebrated the bachelorette for a bride who will be a Mrs. only a month from today! Definitely lots of fun when you hit up AC for a bachelorette party ;)

And last but certainly not least......Remember when I said June would become a favorite month for me? Well, here's why.

The date has been set. Finally. We will be getting married a year from tomorrow!!! Which I think is plenty close enough to brag about it on Wedding Wednesday! June 7, 2013 is the day and now comes all the rest of the fun! And from what I hear once you hit the year away it just flies...Stay tuned because it now means wedding planning is full steam ahead!

So excited for all the weddingness in my life!!
