"it's like a have ESPN or something."
ESP is a little bit of an exageration but still...So the first and only wedding I featured on here is up for the knot's "Best Wedding." Whoa. Good luck to the lovely couple!

I'm in love with white-on-white weddings. And although this isn't a wedding, I want this gorgeous backdrop. (Photo by Kim Le Photography as featured on SPM)

DIYs galore
The DIYs in this wedding featured on Style Me Pretty are gorgeous and fun. Not to mention the colors, lovelovelove. No lie, I would do all of these right now for my apartment. And the altar backdrop was actually assembled by the groom--she's one lucky girl. For more, clickie here.

don't call it a comeback
I'm coming back, I promise. Posting on here was a resolution and I'm going to keep it. I need to keep up with the one thing in my life I love.
Anywho, this gem by Green Wedding Shoes was inspired by UP, aka one of my favorite movies. I've previously posted about balloons in engagement shoots. Lovee.

the beige and white buffet
I've decided my colors, for now, are going to be white and beige, and what better than a beige and white buffet to compliment it--duh. Featured are: doughnuts, a white fondant cake, caramel cheesecake, cream puffs, white chocolate pretzels, oatmeal cookies, cinnamon rolls, rice krispies, white covered red velvet cake balls and cheesecake brownies. Delish.

meet wedding intern brooke
So, growing up I was an avid reader of the teenvogue intern blog and thought I would copy its "meet so-so" blog entry. So here I go.
Age: 19
Hometown: Wellington, FL
School: University of Florida
Ever since "The Wedding Planner" I've always wanted to be a wedding planner. I had never been to a wedding so this new world was so intriguing. And J.Lo's lonely life was something I craved. She was organized, timely, fashion-forward--basically, everything I wanted to be when I was a grown up. My sister made fun of me because every time the movie was on I would be watching it. I was seriously in love.
Time passed and I forgot about my dream.
College time came and I had no idea what I wanted to do. I had been on yearbook for seven years so it's the only thing that came to mind that I could do for the rest of my life and be decent at. Then, though, in Intro to Journalism my one professor told us of the wary future of journalists and I quickly switched to PR--"The Hills" and "The City" made it look fun and from what I could tell planning parties was involved so it was the closet thing to me to wedding planning.
Shortly after, I found out UF actually had an event management major and I planned to double. My dream was finally going to happen. My sister said she knew it was coming and talked about my obsession with the movie yet again. I was super excited. Part of the major is a 15 credit internship. So, I thought I'd get ahead and apply for one in the Fall.
A month before school started I applied to two wedding planners. I got no response even after follow ups..Then, in October I tried again. Both responded. One already hired interns but the other was interviewing. Yes.
I was super nervous. I had been following wedding blogs all summer and fall and just hoped those would help.
The interview was fine. She ran late but I was willing to overlook it since I really, really wanted this. I brought up I followed her blog and she was pretty happy about that. She asked if I had one and I said no...but I got one soon after, obviously.
Two weeks later I got the acceptance letter and couldn't stop gushing about it to everyone.
I'm three weeks in and although it's all a learning process full of little tasks, but the weddings and events are soon to come. I don't know if this is what I'll do for my life but I'm really happy now doing it.
que sera sera

mix n' match
Ever since I watched "Glamour's 50 Wedding Dos and Don'ts" I've been obsessed with mix n' match bridesmaids dresses. A pattern, theme or color scheme is the usual inspiration. Here's today's inspiration:

interning
Today, I officially started my internship. After much confusion and miscommunication, today was finally the day.
And just my luck, I'm getting two internships for the time of one. woo
Obviously, one is for a wedding and event coordinator and now the other is for a neighboring photo studio. (fyi: this December ADORE and Footstone Photography along with Unique Designs, which is a design studio, teamed up to form a mega-wedding/event one-stop shop.)
I'm in love with both places and all my bosses.
Here's one of the photos in the wedding studio that I fell in love with while I was interviewing, which is also a photo done by Footstone Photography. I was like 'wow, fate is crazy.'

murphy
The other day I had lunch with one of my best friends from elementary, middle school. She told me of her wedding vision: elope to Vegas, get married in a Betsey dress and then have a reception on her aunt's lot. Here's a little something inspired by that (p.s. the lot is located on the Intercoastal hence the "Just Married" speedboat.)
