Dane and I have been so blessed by how generous our friends and family have been. They have been showering us with gifts and money since we announced our engagement. I was truly shocked that they would send us checks and even a set of our china when we sent out our save the dates! [...]
Wishing another of our lovely bride bloggers, Amanda, the most wonderful, happiest wedding day ever! We are all thinking of you today as you celebrate!
So here I am on my last day of work as Ms. Z – I’m a teacher so kids are all asking me what my new last name will be and can they still call me Ms. Z. I say yes, because I remember it being really hard when I was younger and teachers would [...]
The fiancée and I had several debates about what to give away as favors. We wanted it to be somewhat practical; something that our guests could use or enjoy either on the day of the wedding or afterward. We also wanted whatever it was to share something about us without being some random monogrammed thing. [...]
This lovely Missouri wedding came to us from a longtime reader, Trischa! I LOVE when readers send their weddings in for features, it’s so fun to see how they made their wedding dreams come true on a small budget!

I love any decor items that feature raw wood and yarn, and these initial monogrammed plaques made with yarn and nails are a simple and pretty way to customize your wedding reception space. Not to mention, when your wedding [...]
{This post was written prior to Erin’s wedding, which took place a couple of weeks ago. Read below to see how she was feeling leading up to the big day!} So, we’re officially 8 days from the wedding, which means I’ve started obsessively checking the 10 day forecast to see what the weather has [...]
So excited to share the wedding of one of our bride bloggers today! As you know, the lovely Emily shared her wedding planning process here on BSB (read all her posts here) and she’s back today to share her special day with us! I absolutely love the look of everything, from the mismatched bridesmaid dresses, [...]
I’m kind of on the fence about wedding favors. When I have attended weddings in the past, the happy couple has given out Jordan Almonds in tiny bags, bubbles, candy and personalized champagne glasses.
