This weekend was a whirlwind of happiness with my bridal shower (blog on that epic magic tomorrow!), Tony's School of Rock wrap party, and having three of the women I love most in this world in L.A. - my childhood bestie and co-Maid of Honor Jax, my mom and my Grandma Marilyn. It was all capped off by my very first wedding gown fitting yesterday!View Article
Four years ago today, Tony took me on our first date and asked me to be his girlfriend (he moves fast). Today is my bridal shower and, two months from Monday, I'll marry him. I'm the luckiest girl in the world. In honor of our anniversary, I'm re-sharing The Dateiversary Anniversary, which I wrote last year about all the reasons why I love him...View Article
Anytime you receive an email that starts off with "Hi beauties!!!!" and has a wedding-related subject line, you know you're in for something awful. And a few of the friends I love most in this world, when I invited/harassed them to participate in a "Wedding Sweatshop Wino Night" this past Sunday. Only it wasn't just a night, it was a day. I offered them wine, champagne, snacks, pizza and cupcakes in exchange for a day of free labor assembling hundreds of DIY projects while listening to me vent about wedding drama. And they agreed...View Article
Tony and I got back from Davis last night, just in time to perform in two shows - him in American Town Hall and me in Bad Company at The Groundlings. (Is that grammar correct? I don't know. We were out celebrating/eating cheese fries until 2am and I haven't had my coffee yet. Mom will email me to let me know if it's not.) Both shows were a stupid amount of fun. As was our trip to Davis... We got to spend some much-needed quality time with my family, check lots off the wedding To Do list, and eat so much you'd never know I recently suffered through a juice cleanse and Tony suffered through a wicked bout of food poisoning. I'd like to say I'm going to chase down the wagon and crawl back onto it immediately, but the truth is I will probably continue my binge streak through the weekend... I'm forcing my girlfriends to come over to participate in Bridezillannie's Wedding DIY Sweatshop, and I'm planning to make lots of treats to take the edge off. I hope yours is full of manic DIY'ing, wine and bestie time, too! Happy weekend!View Article
I'm having the hardest time selecting the outfits for our ring bearer and flower girls for our upcoming wedding. So far, everything I have come across is too expensive, too ridiculous, or just gives me the creeps - it's shocking how many appear to be wedding gowns for child brides or made for tiny street performers. Here are a few I will NOT be choosing...View Article
It would seem that my goal is to make all of my loved ones hate me by August 1... Can't write/shower/be a productive member of society today, I'm too busy forcing my parents and fiancé into wedding DIY indentured servitude. Welcome bag assembly, here we come! TONY, DO YOU STILL WANT TO MARRY ME????View Article
I'm a total creeper and love to stalk people's wedding websites. (Probably a creeper for other reasons too, but we'll keep it specific to this blog.) I get such a rush trolling strangers' photos and love stories, seeing where they're getting married and why, how he/she proposed, judging they've registered for. (You are a dirty liar if you tell me you don't judge wedding registries... OR I'm just a jerk.) So, for a little karma, I'm sharing our wedding website publicly! I bought a subscription for it to be hosted through the luxury wedding website company Riley & Grey, and the kind folks over there offered a 50% discount to the first 50 readers who use the code HEELS at checkout for their own wedding websites! Read on to creep Tony and my site...View Article
