Wedding Wednesday: Recent Pins + Updated Checklist.

It's my favorite (blog) day of the week! Wedding Wednesday! Today I'm showing you some of my favorite recent Pinterest finds.

Find me on Pinterest here.

How gorgeous is this sequin linen? It would be perfect for the cake table, but for $85 to rent, it's not looking like it's going to happen. :)

Hopefully you'll have someone to set up your reception space for you, rather than doing it yourself. An easy and great way to make sure things are set up as you'd like them to be is to take a picture of how you want it set up, tape it to the top of a clear bin, and place your items inside the bin. Voila! There should (hopefully) be no questions. :)

Weekending. (And finished Pinterest project!)

This weekend was full of friends and Christmas spirit!

First of all, I arrived home from work Friday evening to 4 packages! Two were presents to give, two were presents to receive.

Frankie sent me a beautiful pickle ornament. :)

Later that night we had a relaxing night at home. We invited two couples and their pups over to grill out and sit by the fire (getting good use out of that fire pit!). It was a fun, low key night.

Smore's supplies.

 

Birdie enjoyed sitting by the fire.

Brady enjoyed digging a hole and laying in the dirt. (Ugh.)

And Benny stayed warm snuggling in the chair.

 Saturday, all I really wanted to do was be lazy on the couch. Cameron wasn't a fan of my plan, so we went downtown to find him a jacket and grab some lunch. Operation find a jacket was a success (FINALLY!).  Ate lunch at a Greek restaurant called Taziki's. Sat a few tables down from Mayor Joe Riley, which was pretty neat. I would definitely recommend Taziki's, but Olympik Deli is still #1 for my taste buds.

Later that day I had to go pick up Cameron's super secret Christmas present. Can't wait to share with yall! On the way home, I took this pic - while driving. I love our bridge and our sunsets.

Christmas party #1 of the season followed that evening. But there are no pics to prove it.

Sunday I had to be up bright and early to start setting up for my company Christmas party. Here is the reveal of the Pinterest inspired centerpiece! They turned out awesome and we got a lot of compliments on them!

And a couple of pics from the evening..



Raffle time! I won a $100 gift card to Kohl's! And promptly spent it when I got home. Ha. What? They were having a 20% off sale that ended that night so I HAD to use it! :)

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend, too!

I have a chaise lounge that my Grandmother gave me and it is SO comfortable. It's currently hiding in the junk room, but Cameron, see how good it could make the house look?? :)

Some Fall decorations I could actually handle.

Gameday skinny jeans! I know Cameron would be thrilled if I wore these! On top of the color not being his fave (Clemson fan) he hates skinny jeans.

Dill pickle french fries! OMG yum.

I swear someone borrowed Brady to take this picture. Looks JUST like him. Fluffy tail and all.

Ok, I Get It.

I finally caved and joined Pinterest on Tuesday to see what all the hype was about.

Now - I totally get it. I could literally spend all day on that dang website.

Other than the fact that there are a TON of great ideas, DIY's, recipes, pictures, etc, the main reason I love it is the fact that if I save it while I'm at work, I can still access it once I go home! I would save recipes to my favorites on my work computer and unless I remembered to print it out or email it to myself, I'd be screwed once I got home. Now I will never have this problem again!

A few finds so far..
