Happy Wednesday Y’all!!! I hope everyone enjoyed their Memorial Day holiday. I enjoyed my much needed long weekend. I did not get as much as I wanted accomplished but I got to relax, so that’s what really counts. Here’s what I am confessing today.
I confess that me and my fiancé have set our wedding date. We are getting married October 27th, 2018. I really wanted an October wedding because it’s not too hot or cold during that time in Louisiana. When I called the wedding venue they only had that date left in October, so I knew it was our date.
I confess that I can not get over my wedding venue. It is absolutely gorgeous! When I saw it years ago, I knew it was where I wanted to get married.
I confess that I had a little wedding planning melt down last week. Yes I’ve only been engaged for 2.5 weeks but everyone and their mom was asking questions…so it kind of stressed me out. Everything is all good now though (let’s hope it stays that way).
I confess that along with my little melt down a family member felt that they should tell us “what we will be doing at our wedding” as far as wedding favors. I will just say I nipped that in the butt quick, though I think I hurt some feelings (I tried really hard to be nice). No offense, but this is our wedding and we will be doing what we want. I am happy to hear suggestions but I will not be told what to do with my wedding. I guess I am a bridezilla.
I confess that I had an amazing time spending time with our friends & neighbors Sunday. We boiled crawfish and shrimp and just had a great time.
I confess that I just enrolled in BossPitch from Erika at Coming Up Roses. I’m excited to learn new ways on how to pitch myself to brands.
I confess that I truly have the best fiancé ever. I was not feeling well yesterday and looked a hot mess. He told me loved me no matter what I looked like. Yes, I know he should be saying that regardless. Lol.
I confess that I am still in awe when it has come to working with some amazing brands recently. I will have my first collaboration post up this week.
I confess that I feel like I have finally gotten back into my blogging groove. I hope to continue with it, especially with all the upcoming wedding planning.
I confess that I celebrated my birthday last week and my boyfriend surprised me with tickets to go see Britney Spears in Vegas. Yes I am a Britney lover…don’t hate. I’ve been wanting to go see her in Vegas since she has been there.
So there you have it! My weekly ramblings. I’m sure in weeks to come I will be confessing a lot about wedding planning. I apologize in advance!
What are you confessing this week? How has everything been going for you lately? Share with me below!
haha omg I would totally go see Britney in Vegas, too fun!
Kallie I can not wait to go see her. I am very excited!
Oh man, weddings make people crazy! You hear opinions from people you’d think would never give you unwanted opinions! Take it with a grain of salt and enjoy your planning and congratulations!!
Liz I agree they do! I have stayed as sane as possible but at times it’s been a little hard. Most of our family has been really awesome with just making suggestions on items but one family has not quite been so quite. It’s been a little annoying and I’ve tried to keep my peace. I have just been like you know what this is our wedding, we will enjoy it. 🙂
Woo hoo congrats on enrolling in Boss Pitch! Welcome to the club, friend! 🙂 Also just try and focus on the fact that you’re getting married and what a joyous thing that is and try not to let all the little stuff get to you!
Thank You Cara! I am very excited about Boss Pitch! I have been pitching myself to companies recently and have had fairly good success with it. I am trying really hard to enjoy wedding planning and not let the little things get to me. 🙂
I can’t wait to see your wedding venue pictures!! Congrats girl!
Summer it’s so beautiful! I will be visiting there this month and will post some pictures soon!
Thats so great about your collab! Can’t wait to see!!
Thanks Neely. Now that everything is squared away I should have my first one up tomorrow!
How exciting that you found a wedding venue you love!! That’s such a big step in the process! I confess that today I drank too much coffee and never did change out of my yoga pants. 😉
Brittany I am very excited about our venue. It’s beautiful. Girl you deserve to drink lots of coffee when needed and I bet those yoga pants were extremely comfortable. I’m jealous!
I don’t miss Louisiana too much, but I do miss a fun crawfish boil! And try not to stress about the wedding – the best advice that we were given when we were planning our wedding was not to take anyone else’s advice and just do what we wanted, haha!
Chelsie I love Louisiana because I’m from there. Lol. Though the weather is insane. I am trying hard not to stress about the wedding….but a family member on my fiancé’s side is making it a little hard. Hopefully I’ll be able to be as nice as possible when it comes to saying no to things. 🙂
I’m in Vegas right now and want to see Britney so bad. I’m trying to make it back before the end of the year.
Hope you’re having a blast in Vegas right now girl! I was so excited when my boyfriend told me he was taking me to go see her.
I get so excited for wednesdays to read your wednesdays we confess series. 🙂 Also — my husband is from Louisiana!!!
Aww thank you Taylor!!! I’m so happy you love my confessions on Wednesday. It’s just a little something fun to let my readers know what is going on in my life or what I think about certain things. What part of Louisiana is your husband from! That’s awesome!
