Well, we did it! We selected the venue – and by “we” I mean my fiance, my parents, and I. If you’ve been following along, then you know that we had already visited two venues in Providence, RI that were very pretty but had a couple of “yeah buts” attached to them. (Missed that post? […]

#WhatsInMyBag – Sisters Edition.
So, I did something a little silly – I started a vlog. My first video is a What’s In My Bag video, which you can check out here! The next video is my sister’s What’s In My Bag video, because she wanted to get in on the action too!
The Blogtini On YouTube!
… so I’ve done something silly. I created a YouTube channel! You can check it out at… YouTube.com/TheBlogtini
Housekeeping
I’ll be honest. I’ve gone back and forth with how to handle The Blogtini in recent weeks. I’m now blogging for three other websites, in addition to writing for my clients, AND my full-time job, and I’ve been struggling to keep up here. To make it a bit easier I’ve decided to go back, at […]
Wedding Planning: The Most Fun Part – Venue Hunting
I imagine that I’m not the only girl who has ever had a long-term boyfriend and started fantasizing about the perfect wedding eons before the proposal took place. (I mean… hello, Pinterest anyone?) I’ve always been able to picture the dress (oh, did I mention I found my dress? As in – purchased it already? Yeah, […]
Wedding Planning: The Unexpected Beginning
I had been joking for a while that all my boyfriend (now fiance!) needed to do was propose, and I would have the wedding planned within minutes. After all, I’ve spent more than enough time on Pinterest pinning gorgeous goodies (check out my boards here – the wedding planning ones are at the bottom), and […]

He proposed around midnight on Christmas Eve (so 12:10am on December 24), and I waited until everyone in our families had […]
New Year Resolutions
It’s been a few days, but I’ve finally decided to sit down and think about my New Years Resolutions. There’s some statistic out there that says 80% of people will break their resolutions within the first month… and that’s always me. Always. So this year I’m trying to be a bit more realistic. Here […]
Christmas Eve Traditions
Growing up, I distinctly remember Christmas Eve being the most fun night ever. My parents used to host a huge Christmas Eve party, where all the adults would bring my sisters and I presents and then get rip-roaring drunk. As the adults got older, the parties quieted down. And as my sisters and I got older […]
Introducing Emy & Livy!
If you follow me on Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, or Instagram then this is old news but if not… get ready for complete cuteness overload. After putting Sasha down a few weeks ago Boyfriend and I were absolutely heartbroken. And after spending a few days home alone while Boyfriend was on a business trip it became […]
