“Give me both!” I’d say. I think both alternatives are great. Ultimately, it comes to preference and cost. With a cake, you have more options for designs, but you can still get creative with the cupcakes. Some things to consider. Is it important to you to cut into a cake? (You can still share a […]

CAKE OR CUPCAKES?

I love behind the scene photos. I especially dig all the bad photos of myself. The worse I look, the harder I laugh at myself. Here’s insight of our year. Of course, Raul is the classy one. None of his bloopers are terrible. This is the look a girl gives you when she can’t wink, […]

YEAR IN REVIEW: 2016

It took me three months to finally find the right pair. It was a happy accident. The first few weeks, I wanted a pair of Christian Louboutin. I kept worrying about how ugly the red bottoms were going to get, and I just couldn’t get passed the idea of them getting scuffed. I took a […]

Thursday is a day for us. To love each other, remember, and rejuvenate. You’ve put in a few more hours than usual at work, and the first day of your late shift, you mentioned you regretted picking up hours on your day off. Tuesday morning was a drag for both of us…the neighbor’s dog in […]

I promise I had no idea what our colors were going to be. I just kind of selected a theme I wanted for our wedding and thought we could go from there. However, choosing a color does help your event designer have an idea about the design of your wedding. The color came from many […]

ELYSSA & NATHAN: LAOTIAN WEDDING

Weddings

Late last week, I consulted with my make up artist. We had an educated discussion about traditional makeup and airbrush. Honestly, I didn’t know which of the two I’d prefer. Some things to consider. Both of the makeup types are long lasting. However, the airbrushed makeup is something that may not be as easy to […]

The results of the elections have stirred a lot of negative feelings, and in spite of what direction the election went, I think we need to remember and focus on the positive in our lives. We need to remember how to keep creating unforgetable memories with our friends and family. Every morning and every evening […]

MY WEEK IN REVIEW

Personal

I was visiting one of my best friends in Colorado for her birthday. I mentioned that I wanted to look for a dress but not your traditional wedding dress. I didn’t want to spend a lot of time in a bridal shop, so I started looking in department stores. Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, and Macys. This […]
