{ Packages, Boxes and Bags }

So the past few weeks have been a blur. Our semester at UVU is winding down and Cole and I have been studying non-stop, writing papers, trying to plan the wedding and fit in time together. Some days, I feel like I only see him for like a half hour in between our hectic schedules. Thankfully, it's almost over and we have the holiday break to look forward to! 

So here's the latest wedding update! I got the best deal on Shutterfly during black friday/cyber monday weekend! Our guestbook was like 40% off and I LOVE how it turned out! Take a peak! 

Oh! and Cole's wedding band arrived! It feels like Christmas came early with all these fun packages arriving this week. But, I won't post pictures of his ring because Im trying to keep it a surprise from my boy who hates surprises. hahaha. 


I think it turned out great, if I do say so myself. I had a lot of fun designing it. Shutterfly made it really easy to do. 

In other wedding news, I have sadly made the decision to go with a different wedding dress. As much as I LOVE my Sottero and Midgley gown, I had been second guessing it since I brought it home. Mainly because it took up a big chunk of our budget, and I was feeling guilty about having spent so much on it. My mama taught me to be frugal and this definitely was a big purchase. 


After going back and forth about it, I found another dress that is equally as gorgeous. It also arrived this week! There has been a package, or box at our doorstep like every day this week haha. I am absolutely in love with this new dress. It has all these beautiful details and was less than my original gown, which means we have more money to put towards our honeymoon fund. Am I the only bride who questioned her choice in gown after purchasing it? I bet not. Am I the only bride who has bought TWO wedding dresses? Maybe. haha. 


It was seriously such a crazy hard decision and I felt like I lost quite a few nights of sleep over it. But, I'm feeling relieved now. I have my first dress listed on several sites, including Tradesy, preownedweddingdresses.com, oncewed.com and ruffled blog. I'm praying it sells quickly with all that exposure. 

Well, that's all for now friends.
