One Faux-tastic Event
When is a fondue party no longer a fondue party? When it becomes a faux bachelorette party, of course!
Allow me to set the scene for you. First, we must take a trip back in time. Back to a simpler era. Back to the days of Nirvana (the group, not the state of mind). Back to [...]
Here Comes the Bridesmaid Part 2
When last we left our harried (get it?) bridesmaids and the glowing bride, we were on our way back to the B&B for final prep for the ceremony. We all piled upstairs to the second floor where five bridesmaids, a cousin, a good friend, an uncle with a camera, a very tired flower girl, and [...]
Here Comes the Bridesmaid
Where to begin? How can I walk you through the wedding to ensure that you fully appreciate the details of this past weekend? First, let me clarify that the wedding was beautiful. Johanna may be the most beautiful bride in the history of weddings and I’ve never seen someone as ready to make that commitment.

One Hell of a Party

It’s an interesting shift from working on the bridal shower. For that party, everything was classy and [...]
Shower the People You Love With … Showers
Saturday was Johanna’s bridal shower. It was a resounding success, if I do say so myself! The restaurant was beautiful and the guests were delightful. Everyone showed up in nice clothes, bearing large gifts. With the help of a sister, I set favors at each seat, arranged the cake table, handed out quizzes and pens, [...]
Less Maid, More Honor
I am having an absolute blast playing Maid of Honor to Johanna. In the last few weeks, I’ve put together the bridal shower, haggled over prices with various restaurants and groups, I’ve tried out new cake recipes, I’ve put together prize bags, looked up games, created games of my own, and just recently I purchased my dress for [...]
