I came across this adorable video over on the Story Board Brides blog. I’m guessing that Jason Mraz’s “I’m Yours” was probably 2009’s top wedding song. This little guy would have been a hit at any wedding! Cute!

Just wanted to send a warm “Welcome Back” to one of my favorite bride bloggers…The UnBride.

Be sure and stop by and show her some love….xoxo!

FOR ME:

So…I just made the terrible mistake of passing by the dreaded magnified mirror in our hotel. BIG MISTAKE. Ladies, just do your self a favor and restrain from looking. My poor skin is in need of some serious TLC so I NEED your help! I currently use Proactive but am considering switching to Philosophy skin products. For some reason at 3…let’s just say 30-ish, my skin has decided to go crazzzzzy. I am thankful that for some reason during the stress of planning my wedding, my face was clear. That being said, I am not so stoked on having more acne now than I did as a teenager! So, any Philosophy fans out there??? I am also considering using a primer. Has anyone tried the Philosophy “the present” primer? I really want to try it out too! I would LOVE any feedback. TYIA!

FOR YOU:

Fun wedding gift sets…also by Philosophy! CUTE!!!

“every bride deserves to feel as beautiful as she is. hope, purity and grace are philosophy’s best-selling products that will inspire her heart and soul and allow her to feel truly beautiful. the bride set includes purity made simple one-step facial cleanser 2 oz., hope in a jar therapeutic moisturizer 1 oz., amazing grace perfumed shampoo, shower gel and bubble bath 2 oz., amazing grace perfumed firming body emulsion 2 oz. and amazing grace perfumed hand cream 1 oz. contained in a lovely hat box. it’s the perfect gift for the bride-to-be.”

Wow. Two of my favorite bloggers were married this weekend. I am so super duper happy for them and am already dying to see the pics from the weddings! I have never met either of these lovely ladies but have followed their planning religiously. *tear*

Margarita Popsicles

Ingredients: 
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons tequila
2 tablespoons orange liqueur (recommended: Grand Marnier)

Once cool transfer to a blender with tequila, orange liqueur, and lime wedge and process until smooth. Pour into the cups and cover the top of each cup with foil.

Ok, I admit it…I am totally addicted to The Hills!!!  Although “Speidi” annoys me most of the time, I can’t wait to see more of their wedding pics! Heidi’s dress is gorge!!! Congrats to the happy couple!

1. Are you sick of The Bachelor yet? Last I heard, he was embarking on his “apology tour”! If you ask me, Jason and Molly deserve each other! I wouldn’t do well being 2nd choice, but I guess neither of them see it that way. Read here, to hear the latest on who should get to keep the ring (Melissa or Jason). I have a feeling it is in the contract that either Neil Lane or ABC gets it back if the marriage doesn’t happen. I have to admit though, I cannot wait to see Jillian on the Bachelorette! Comments?
