Vegas Wedding



So about a few months ago, for my Birthday, I treated myself to a spa day. I hadn't had a facial in years, and the one I booked came with a paraffin wax hand dip. I wanted to be completely prepared and not fumbling with jewelry so I removed it before going in. Unfortunately, after my treatment I didn't make sure it was still in the zippered pouch of my purse before I left. Later that night I went to put my rings back on, only to find that they were missing! Immediately I called my salon (because it's a little far and dark roads are not my friend at night), they looked but no one had turned them in. Needless to say they were gone for good.


Fast-forward from my countless searching, sadness and feelings that my husband must think I am super careless and will never trust me with nice things again. We decided to replace them and not just put the new rings on but make it a special occasion! We booked our favorite vacation spot...Vegas!! We had always joked that it would have been fun to get married in Vegas, so this was our chance! We made reservations at The Little Neon Chapel for our anniversary date, June 30. I started looking at Pinterest ideas (bc that's what almost every girl does when scheming a plan) and I came across this:

The inspo for it ALL:


The real deal (is by designer Alex Mearing, but here is a close version:

As it got closer I realized she got married in November so it was a little cooler. We were renewing our vows in June which is hotter than SH*# out there! I found the perfect dress on Amazon and you can order exact measurements if you are in between sizes (at no extra cost). With a slight alteration from my mom, who really should have been a seamstress, I was set! Here is how it all turned out! If you are thinking to book your wedding, renewal, commitment ceremony The Little Neon Chapel is awesome! They respond quickly to emails and are super friendly, they take photos, they are right downtown so no need to worry about transportation like some of the others. I honestly can't say enough good things about them! I hope you enjoyed my Blog about our renewal!

Gray Goddess

                                            I really need to order these before they are gone! I've gone in my shoe closet several times and black sandals are too dark, nude sandals just aren't quite right for the outfit and for some reason I'm weird about white sandals (working on breaking my uncertainties) Here is the link for these hot Summer sandals! Save me a pair in 9 please, lol. https://www.dsw.com/en/us/product/hobey-gladiator-sandal/384864?cm_mmc=CSE-_-GPS-_-G_Shopping_Sandals-_-New_Sandals&cadevice=c                                                   I am SERIOUSLY in love and stalking this maxi/romper!

My Little Gray Cape (Trench Coat)

I am LOVING this cape for Fall! When I bought it I thought, 'ok this is going to be cute for the beginning of Fall when it's not super cold, then I'll have to layer sweaters under it and still wear a coat.' But just wearing it for the short time we did this shoot I was sweating! It's perfect for Fall nights, long car rides, plane rides, anything where it gets chilly but you want to be able to throw it off to use your arms. I can't wait to wrap up in it all Fall/Winter long and be nice and cozy! It also comes in Black so I may have to own 2 bc I have a feeling this will be a staple piece in my wardrobe! (Perfect too for formal occasions, verses a coat; yep definitely need it in black!)                                                                                  ...

My Little Bathroom Nook

              My little bathroom nook is finally complete! We been in the cottage for 5 months now and when we moved in it was the beginning of the shut downs so it was like just get moved in and deal with getting settled later! When we moved in it was a plane storage closet with the electrical box. I can't even remember if we had shelves or not. We purchased a little plastic 3 drawer storage box on wheels from Meijer and that was about it. We put an accordion door on it so we could close it (out of sight when we had guests). But honestly mid party I would realize we had forgotten to close it and our junk was still in sight! So here we are several months later, about to start on the main house but at least I finally finished this to enjoy the last few months or so while we are still living in the cottage! Pink Washcloths from Target because our old ones met  their fate from a pen in the washing machine. DIY TIP: If you have a bottle that you...
