Happy Monday!!! This past week was super busy for me. First, I had my mid-term for school then Wednesday I took my bridal portraits :) finally, Saturday I meet with my new florist.
My bridal portriats were so much fun. I have an awesome photographer and she just made everything like a party. I started off getting my hair and make up done and that was pretty interesting. Finally after 3 hours of hair and makeup im in my dress and ready to go. Do you know how hard it is to put a bride in a puffy white dress in the back seat of a car? Well at least it was only a short ride to the locations. We did a whole southern bell and run away bride theme. I have not gotten the professional pictures back yet but, I had mom take a few after the photographer left and let me tell you what those were so beautiful.
Meeting with my florist was was like a weight was lifted off my shoulder. I have had a challenge with a florist and this is the 4th one that i have meet with. The last one decided to drop me because another bride came along and he could make more money off her then me so he dropped me. Oh dont worry i gave him a terrible review. Anyways im glad he dropped me because i have found a really really awesome florist who does amazing work and I cant wait for March to roll around so I can see who beautiful everything looks.
I will have a price breakdown of flowers coming soon.

Bridal bouquet
So I bit the bullet yesterday and made a trip to Hobby Lobby (50% off on flowers) and I bought $60.00 worth of roses in cream and light pink. I did four full blossoms, a couple of medium blossoms and then some of the not full yet blossoms. Last night my mom and I put them together and made a very beautiful bouquet. I love love love it but, sorry i forget to take a picture of it :(Now the only thing i have to do is buy some ribbon to tie around the base of it. The best part is I saved some big bucks on doing it myself. The florist wanted $80.00 to do me one and then Hobby Lobby has some that they have already made up and they were around $50.00 and only had 14 roses in them so I think i scored big time. I will have to say over all it was pretty simple and my wonderful google printed instructions were very helpful too. So i am happy now and not so much stressed out about it :)

Am I Crazy???
Wow its been forever since I've blogged on here. I sure have missed it. Well I have a question for all of you. Am I Crazy??? I have decided not to hire a florist and use a friend of the family who does beautiful flowers. I will be using artificial flowers for the church arrangement and some of the centerpieces but, the rest will be real flowers. So the am I crazy part come from the fact that i will be having my bridal portraits done in a couple of weeks and I am doing my bouquet for the pictures. See what i mean, i must be crazy!!!!
Speaking of bridal portraits I am so excited to finally be pulling out my dress and putting it on but, i just have to decide on a location.
Where did you have your pictures done at? Outside or in studio and were you happy with them?
