Finishing The List

The fact that I haven't completed a blog entry since January is no surprise to anyone who knows me well (or..at all)! :) In the last few months,  I have gotten married (not that any of you missed that memo), settled into newlywed life, continued to teach my sweet third graders, administered the STAAR tests, enjoyed several wedding/wedding festivities with some of my sweetest friends and tried to figure out a balance between it all! The last part I'm still working on!

My last post promised information on bridesmaids/groomsmen presents, marriage license and wedding insurance <---yes! that is a thing! So, here goes!

13. Bridesmaids/Groomsmen Presents-This was one of my favorite parts of the wedding! I love giving gifts. I decided that I wanted to give the girls Kendra Scott earrings and a monogrammed flannel to wear while we were getting ready! I bought the flannels from Old Navy and had them monogrammed at Oh Yeah! in Bee Cave!

    

The customer service team at KS was great! They originally sent 9 tags and I needed 10. Being that I'm crazy and wanted them all to match, they (Lauren) sent 10 new ones and a card with well-wishes! So thoughtful!

Here we are in our flannels! Have I mentioned lately, how B-E-A-U-tiful my best friends are?!?! The team at Oh Yeah! was amazing as well!  Each shirt was gift wrapped, so all I had to do was give them to the girls at rehearsal dinner! It was perfect!

We gave the guys/ring bearers new shoes and they looked amazing! Blue chucks to wear at the wedding!

Love these guys so much! Thank you guys and my sweet girls for spending this weekend with us! We are so grateful and will never forge how special each of you are to us! 

14. Marriage License- Make sure you get it 72 hours before your wedding day! You can go to any county in Texas and get it! You and the groom have to be present, and you'll need your driver's license. It was $81.

Travis County takes your picture for you and posts it their website. :) 

15. Wedding Insurance- My venue required it, so we bought it. We used wedsafe.com, and it was $185.

I'm obviously going to do a second post today because well...I enjoy blogging and because so much has happened over the last few months...and because our wedding pictures are innnn! Stay tuned.

Love y'all!
