Happy Wedding Day J!!

Other than putting together all my stationary (programs, seating cards, table #’s, menus) I have been trying my best to take care of myself. Actually, not really. Trying my best has been …
- forgetting to pluck my eye brows
- forgetting to wash my face before I go to sleep
- forgetting to moisturize after my shower
But ONE thing I didn’t neglect are my roots!

Everyone always has a wedding advice. All of which I truly value and am totally grateful for because it’s made every day leading up to today a bit easier. But one wedding advice that almost everyone avoids talking about is money. (THANKS ERIC & SERENA for the heads up!!!)
There are a lot of behind the scenes hands that put together a wedding. & I, as a wedding vendor, truly appreciate everyone that’s a part of our wedding. So along with the tip, I put together a vendor goody bag!
Water, gatorade, power bars, candy, gum, chocolate and a sandwich will be packed in this goody bag. There’s nothing better than a well fed, happy vendor on your wedding day to make it that much more special!

I went in for my last dress fitting yesterday and ….. IT’S TOO TIGHT!!!
At my first dress fitting I had to take in 4 inches and then another 2 for the 2nd fitting. But at the 2nd fitting, I asked my seamstress to take it in a bit more because I’m planning on losing a bit more weight.
DARN mini getaway with family! I ate so well! Like, I ate every meal so abundantly!
My seamstress made comments like, “OH! Weren’t you gonna lose weight?” “Perhaps you should skip thanksgiving this year?”
So for this 2010 thanksgiving, I plan to eat the salad and fruits. Then work it off by attending WOODBURY COMMON OUTLET’s black friday.
Good luck everyone who plans to black friday! I wish everyone a safe and happy black friday!
and please! Enjoy thanksgiving dinner for me~~

with LOVE! I seriously can not thank my bridesmaids enough for such a beautiful shower at one of my favorite restaurants! SALA (Flushing, NY)
It started with a crazy morning because the microdermabrasion facial I got left MILLIONS of tiny red bumps ALL OVER MY FACE. My face felt raw, bumpy, itchy but painful, just straight up UGLY! I think of all the people I know, I have THE MOST SENSITIVE skin in the world. But this was beyond UGLY! I’m too embarrassed to even post up pictures
Anyways! back to the subject at hand! My shower at

Lately I’ve been SO BUSY!!!!!! To the point where I have no time to read my blogs, sign birthday cards, tweeze my eyebrows or even give a crap about what I look like. Is this why Manhattan people always look washed out, pale and tired? Must be!
However, this past Saturday was J’s bridal shower! I unfortunately could not attend but I had already thought about what I wanted to get her. Every time we do weddings, the photographers always do a photoshoot with the dress alone. They typically hang it from a window. But you know what would ruin a picture? An ugly hanger! Even a wood hanger doesn’t really match a beautiful white dress. That’s why I decided to get J this:

Other than having to tackle my in laws, there’s nothing that’s really stressed me out about our wedding. Being a freelancer as I’m planning this wedding has been a God sent blessing! I’m able to do something everyday and doing major jobs are quite enjoyable. I know girlfriends that broke their backs doing stationary stuff for hours at a time.
Here’s one thing I learned very quickly especially with my obsessive personality!
- SET IT & FORGET IT! Stop looking for something better.
I can’t even tell you how many times I doubted my dress, color schemes, stationary. It’s quite endless when it comes to wedding ideas. =.=;;;
But last month, I did one of the best part of wedding planning. “TASTING” my foods!
