Countdown

... more months left!!!

SATC

I just can't help it, Carrie Bradshaw is my fictional idol; I can't help but be inspired by her (costume) designs. She will definitely influence my wedding...

Soulmates

Soulmates: these are genius and probably a must-have for those trendy outdoor weddings. I will be including these with the bridesmaid's gifts :)

Cake Bites

As I go to the extreme to be unique and frugal so I have come across the most amazing idea to replace the wedding cake. My reception is going to be a classy cocktail hour so having to try to balance cake in one hand with a drink in the other is too much; I need an alternative. Cupcakes are overdone, candy is easy so I have fallen in love with cake bites! They are literally as they sound, just small bites of cake that are easily popped into your mouth, no mess, no balancing act. I love these little bites from Bakerella.

P.S. Bakerella is filled with AMAZING ideas for tasty goodies...I really wish she did weddings.

Our Newest Addition

This weekend Clint and I welcomed the cutest and greatest puppy on the planet into our lives; her name is Pedernales, after the river, Perdy for short, and we will register her as Pedernales McCombs Miller (we have to include the McCombs to show our UT spirit). She is a pure bred English Bulldog with amazing family lineage that goes back to her great great grandparents.

So why a bulldog? Bulldogs are amazing apartment dogs; they have such a calm demeanor and prefer the chill of the air conditioning to the outdoors. The are great with other people and can sit and entertain themselves for hours. They don't really bark and they love to just sit and hang out with their owners...PERFECT!

Right now, she is the cutest 10 pounds of rolly polly ever and will probably reach the average weight of 40 pounds when she is full grown. Our first night with her, she only woke up once! Amazing for a puppy! But the second night, when she was a little more comfortable with us, she definitely kept us up all night. We look forward to watching this little girl grow as she will be an amazing addition to our family :)

Dark Plum and Silver

I have changed my wedding colors...

This entire time, I have based my accent wedding color on red wine; the 'red' part had me looking for a deep red color instead of a deep purple color. It wasn't until I stumbled across the PERFECT shoes that I figured out that I didn't want any red at all, I wanted something closer to purple. So I bought the amazing plum satin shoes, called the woman making my veil and called the people creating my invitations and said STOP, I want plum, not dark red :) Now just like finding the perfect dark red, getting things in the perfect deep purple will be hard but I so much prefer the color purple over the color red. And silver, well that is just classic :)

Rock Star Bride
