Southern as a Sazerac: My Latest Article in The Independent Weekly Bridal Guide

Pin It

Once upon a time there was a little girl who eloped. She wanted nothing more than to step out of the   limelight and run from every part of planning a wedding. The thought of a guest list or a bridal shower made her little heart go boom-boom, but not in a good way. She married the man of her dreams, quietly in a grand old place and had a grand old time. They've lived happily ever after. 

Even without a registry. Gasp! 

Then one day, a venerable local publication approached this girl about writing an article for their BRIDAL GUIDE. And she almost passed out. And her mind started racing with thoughts of "Oh, my garter belt, I have no idea what in the hell to write about a wedding!" Not one to back down from a challenge, she graciously accepted. 

To read the article in its entirety, visit The Independent  and view pages 27-29 for the spread :) 

**there's a tiny hint to what I've been up to –– if you guess it, I'll give you the biggest virtual smacker you could imagine. 

Till next time,

Merry Christmas!

Pin It Lawd, has it really been since August?

Major life changes going on –– exciting stuff, really! I can't share just yet, but hopefully one day soon. 

Merry Christmas, and if you're ever in a pinch (or if you're just lazy like me) and you want a quick, stylish gift wrapping idea, check out what I dreamed up for Christmas this year. Easypeasy! 

Simple:

•Satin Ribbon

• White wrapping paper + chinese takeout boxes

• Wired miniature white pinecones

Pretty, memorable gifts don't need to cost a fortune a'tall!

I did not put up a Christmas tree this year, but I made a new wreath {that counts, right?}

I've also been getting more requests to do florals and event design, which I DO love so much. 

Check out a recent event that I had the pleasure of whipping up. The occasion? My neighbors' birthday last month. We were on a tight turnaround time and in a halfway renovated kitchen, but pulled it off swimmingly!

Wishing you and yours a wonderful holiday!

xoxo,

Andrea
