three years ago…

i married my best friend…the one who makes me laugh, the one who listens when i need to cry, the one who makes me the best me that i can be!

to j, i never knew that our wedding day would be the start of many “happiest days of my life”, and i am so blessed to share them all with you! i love you more than you know…

friday fabulousness…

just so excited to finally share this fabulousness…

for those that have been following me for a while, you know how long i have been dying to redesign my site! well, after much design back & forth with james (my husband/assistant/web developer guru) i decided to scratch what we were working on and start fresh. after all, i’m a big girl and know best what i want, and james has way too many things on his plate to work with my ever changing mind. better to save his sanity! haha!

with my website i wanted to have the same aesthetic as i designed in my blog, but just a bit more streamlined…so you will notice that the smw butterfly was phased out for the website. of course i still love a clean white palette with a splash of my signature teal blue, so that was a serious must. my site also had to showcase the beauty & love of some recent couples that i have been so blessed to work with!

for those of you out there looking to redesign your site, let me just say that i am beyond stoked with creative motion designs! they allowed me to take control and customize my site out the way i wanted. not to mention, they have the best customer service & development team ever; always so quick to answer my endless questions and make sure my site was nothing short of perfect. thanks to mike, peter, and morgan…you guys rock!

so there you have it…my little website fabulousness for this week.

i am completely in love with it, and hope you love it just as much!

advent calendar: day #24

not only is today christmas eve, it’s also national eggnog day! mmm mmm…nothing like filling up on eggnog to really put me in the Christmas spirit! want to know what is the best eggnog of all time? broguiere dairy eggnog! every year since living in orange county, i search grocery stores high and low for bottles of their yummy deliciousness! if you are an eggnog fan, and you haven’t tried them…you are truly missing out!

since i can’t drink eggnog everyday, i wouldn’t mind taking a bath in it everyday! what…you say?! yup, philosophy makes a decadent smelling
eggnog bubble bath that you can soak in. just don’t go pouring alcohol in the tub!

i finally know what i need for all those cool business cards that i have lying around my office from networking events! all i have to do is organized them in this nifty little business card “mini filing cabinet” from think geek. this online store has the craziest things for geeks like james and i…and maybe even that special geek in your life too!

sorry to say this…but i am convinced that anthropologie is the devil. why else would they pull me in with their swoon worthy catalogs and mesmerizing photoshoots? because they are the devil and want me to spend all my $ that’s why!

but alas, i cannot help but love this flirty necklace! imagine how awesome this would look for a wedding!
