A Hoppy Easter

I super love Easter. The church service is always amazing – it’s a beautiful thing to celebrate the fact that Jesus rose from the grave (the ever popular: He is risen!). Our church, Bayou City Fellowship, was packed, which made me so happy. We went to my parent’s house afterwards for Easter lunch + got little Easter baskets, filled with gift cards to Starbucks + Jonathan’s The Rub, healthy snacks (we’re both very picky), + prosecco with the cutest bunny glove ever (see pictures below). I hope you had a great celebration as well!

Cannot wait to marry this guy in a few months!

Honeymoon Series: Bali

We have explored all sorts of options for the honeymoon – our favorites being Croatia, New Zealand, and Thailand. Then, as I mentioned in my previous post, I stumbled upon Entouriste and my mind was made – we’re going to Bali! In her post about Bali, Ami talks about her visits in Ubud, which is about an hour away from our hotel – the Conrad Bali Resort & Spa (see pictures below). After reading about her experiences (and seeing those pictures!), we’ll definitely make a trip north to see those sites as well. I am so excited – and relieved to have picked a spot! While the wedding is in July, we’ll wait until December to go, as Sasha has finals at the end of November. It’s a long, long journey there (29 hours, to be exact), but I know it’ll be worth it!

Featured on Style Me Pretty

My sister sent me an email on Tuesday, asking if I’d seen this post on Style Me Pretty – I hadn’t and obviously squealed when I saw it. I posted pictures of the Tapp’s wedding here and here – it was so gorgeous. My beautiful bridesmaid, Sophee, did a wonderful job planning and organizing everything. I miss Austin. Especially after seeing all of these #SXSW pictures on Instagram!

Honeymoon Series: New Zealand

In the first Honeymoon Series post, I talked about us traveling to Croatia, which is still a top contender. One of the other places that we have been researching is New Zealand, which I have pegged as God’s proof to man that he created the earth. I mean, please look at the photos below and tell me they are not absolutely unreal? If we go to New Zealand, we would make the trip in November/December, after his finals end. We would likely be there for two full weeks, given the large amount of places we want to visit. Number one on my list is definitely to go hiking in Milford Sound. Luckily for us, there are five hotels around the country that are managed by Hilton (where Sasha has all of his points), and United has reasonably priced tickets from Houston through LA (where I have my points). These are big deciding factors for us – total consultant move! Decisions, decisions.

An Elegant White Carneros Wedding

One of my bridesmaids Tweeted a link to this feature on OnceWed.com when she saw that it was at our venue (The Carneros Inn), and I cannot stop looking at the pictures. All of the details are gorgeous – so simple and elegant. Instead of a white palette, our colors are light pink, green, and gold (think Rifle Paper Co., because yes, I’m obsessed with Anna Bond’s work). I love how one place can truly be very customized to each wedding! Less than five months to go, and I’m so excited.

Umm. Yes, please. I want Sandy and Belle to be there!
