Sharing my daily joys.
Started off with a BANG this week – my hubby-to-be and I purchased a super nice camera for our Honeymoon (the Sony A5100), and after spending a month with it, I was feeling ready and practiced enough to film a Plan-With-Me. So I did! Filmed my first PWM annnnnnnnd my head was in the shot the entire time. Fabulous. So no PWM this week – next week I’m hoping.
It’s the magical time of year! The time when Erin Condren shares her latest and greatest layout with us! I am always SUPER pumped to preview the newest designs. This time of year marks the excitement and anticipation of being able to order a new life planner, and the anticipation only increases with the 2-3 weeks of waiting to receive your customized Life Planner in that beautiful decorative box, wrapped in colorful tissue paper, smelling of plastic, organization, and promise.
Have you seen the new Blog Post on the Erin Condren website? If you haven’t had the chance to look at the new design previews yet, the link to her Blog post is here, and there are a lot of new and exciting features coming our way!
Is it terrible that I am more excited for our honeymoon than our wedding day? I’m so serious. Don’t get me wrong, I am SO Excited for our marriage, but am 100% not into the ‘dream wedding’ thing. I find myself daydreaming about our honeymoon in the middle of work, and have to pull myself back to reality about 15 times a day – so sad. My fiancée and I have never taken a vacation together, so I am so looking forward to going away for the first time. I couldn’t imagine going anywhere more amazing than the happiest place on earth ….DISNEYLAND! – Followed by 4 days in Las Vegas, which neither of us have ever been to. Complete opposites, I KNOW, and I cannot be more pumped for our juxtaposing experiences.
When we were deciding on where to take our honeymoon– we really tried as best we could to plan something within our means financially (See more about ways to save money on your wedding here). Disney seemed like the perfect option for us. Our flights are covered by my SouthWest Points, and the only part we have to pay for is our hotel and park admission, which while it is expensive, is totally worth the experience. I’m an experience over stuff person any day of the week. Plus, there is something about Disney that is so special – that indescribable feeling while you’re walking through, people watching and seeing families at their best (and sometimes worst), the different smells, finding the special details that surround the place. AHHH I love it. LOVE IT!
This particular post will focus primarily on sharing Disney related purchases. Part 2: Las Vegas – Coming Soon!
There is something magical that happens when you touch pen to paper. Don’t get me wrong – I LOVE technology – but there is just something to be said for good ol’ fashioned pen and paper.
Wedding planning can be completely stressful – the guest list! The dress! THE BUDGET!? For me, the process of planning my wedding has been stress free, manageable and enjoyable. Here are some ways I cut back to save money on our wedding:
