stress & love

My engagement party is this Saturday.

It is a lot more stressful than I had anticipated;

With everything from family drama to people not rsvping.

I've been so on edge lately that I needed to remind myself of why there is even an engagement party in the first place.

I found some pretty pictures that have calmed me down and made me get a little bit of perspective so I thought I would share them with you all & this way I can always look back on them.

Stay tuned for what I'm anticipating to be a disaster of an engagement party.

remembering loved ones at your wedding

I've been doing some thinking about my wedding.

I want to do something to commemorate the loved ones that have passed away.
I've been looking at vogue forums and various wedding sites for ideas but they don't really appeal to me.

The two most common things seem to be; Lighting a candle and setting a place at dinner for the people who are no longer alive.
I like the first idea but, no offence to anyone who has done the second one but that is just really not my style.

I was thinking we could make a toast and then ask everyone to join us on the dancefloor for a song that is very special to me, sort of a dedication dance I suppose.

I've already decided on the song.
It will be Dream a Little Dream of Me by The Mamas and the Papas.

It's one of my favourite songs of all time and it holds a lot of meaning in relation to when my grandfather died.
If you haven't heard it, I definitely reccomend watching it below.
It's worth the 3 minutes out of your day.



Has anyone ever heard of this being done before? What do you think of the idea?

style inspiration &slight girl crush; leighton meester

I just LOVE Leighton Meester. I think she is absolutely stunning and she has the most amazing style. Everything seems to suit her and she always looks so flawless.
What do you think?

just some pretty pictures.

I'm blanking on what to blog about lately so I thought I would just post a collection of photos that inspire me and make me happy.
