Say Yes to the Dress: Atlanta

I'm so excited because Say Yes to the Dress is coming to the south!!!

I know, I've been married for almost nine years, but I still love anything that has to do with weddings! I love watching Say Yes to the Dress, but always get annoyed when they make the viewer feel sorry for the girl that couldn't afford the $8,000 wedding gown and had to settle for the $6,000 one.

It will be interesting to see if the new Say Yes to the Dress in Atlanta, which starts in July, will have a southern flair to it. It will certainly be interesting to see the southern girls that I'm sure will appear on the show. Dear TLC, please don't pick all dumb blonde girls with the hickest southern accents to feature on your show cause there's more to us southern women than that.

What's even more cool about this new show is it is the same bridal salon that my BFF bought her dress from about two years ago! It's called Bridals by Lori and if you're shopping for a dress, you can click here to sign up to try to get on the show! She was married in Atlanta in her brother's backyard, overlooking the pool, and I actually directed the wedding. Her dress was GORGEOUS and she said they won't let you take pictures of the dresses there until you actually commit to buy. I think Kleinfields is the same way.

  1. Oh how fun and exciting! I love that show as I was in the bridal biz for 4 years, and could totally relate to all the DRAMA! It'll be nice to see a "southern" version....like you said, hopefully they make some intelligent selections ;-)

    Beautiful pic of you and your BFF!! XO

  2. I bought my dress there, too, in 2001 before they moved to their bigger store! I live in Tennessee and had to make 5 different trips for fittings, etc. It was an Anne Barge dress and she came to one of the fittings because it was all done by hand. It was lovely to meet her! Can't wait to see them on TLC! How exciting!

Star Wars Gift Bag Tags

Two years ago, for Walker's Star Wars birthday, I created Yoda tags to attach to the gift bags for the party. Little did I know these bag tags would become so popular on Pinterest! To date, these tags have been repinned almost 500 times!!! So I thought since there's so much interest, I'd add them to my Etsy shop . So now, for just $8.00 - you can receive the file electronically and print them for yourself! I jazzed them up a bit with some sliver glitter puff paint on the light saber and some silver ribbon to attach to the dollar store bags. Print as many or as few as you want! So, if you are planning a Star Wars party, check them out ! And may the force be with you!

Baby Shower Inspiration Boards

I got all excited about the baby shower inspiration board contest over at Sippycups Are for Chardonnay , but only ended up submitting this first one on time. I managed to pull the second together this weekend just for kicks and loved the colors, so thought I'd share here. The first board is call "Nesting Instincts" and the second is "Over the Rainbow". I think I could get addicted to creating these things.
