The day of our final ceremony is just around the corner, which means two things: 1) Chris and I will finally be married. Even though we’re planning a simple affair, getting all of the details orchestrated has been the hardest project I have ever undertaken. Keep in [...] So maybe you got just a little too happy with the 007 gun last weekend and registered for everything from a $2000 cappuccino maker to seven different colors of the same KitchenAid mixer. Now it’s Tuesday afternoon and you’re wondering if you can cancel the seven different registries you started while amped up on caffeine and free [...] One of my biggest pet peeves is when employees of franchise stores like Bed, Bath, and Beyond and Crate and Barrel use the word “I” in relation to the products they are pushing.

She looked fantastic in the pic, yet one of her “friends” (read: gold digger) felt the need to comment, “nice pic. Switch it out for one that more prominently showcases THE RING.” Hmm… [...] It has come. I can hardly contain my excitement.* The greatest show on Earth. THE bridal expo to end all bridal expos.
