Wow 2010 is over already? It's been a wonderful, crazy, loving, wild ride and I loved every moment! 2011 means so many things for us. This month my amazing stepdaughter turns 16, my best friend's husband finally comes home from Iraq, in Feb my beautiful flower girl turns 3, and don't forget Valentine's Day, in March I'll turn 28, and my sister will be 30....and in April we'll celebrate our ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY!!! So that's why 2010 is so hard to say goodbye to, it was our wedding year, it was OUR YEAR!! I also became a full time wedding blogger this year, moved, quit my job where I worked for 5 years, but best of all we made a family when we got married with my wonderful stepdaughters and stepson. My stepdaughters moved in with us and we became one big happy family!!

HAPPY 2011 Everyone!!

Thank you for being wonderful friends, giving advice, sharing your personal life, following mine, and being a great support!!

Turquoise...the color of 2010!!!

I heard this on the radio and figured OK sure, does anyone really listen or follow this color thing? But I think it might be true now that I've seen it on some wedding blogs like Wishpot Wedding that people take the color of the year serious! So is it a trend now, a 2010 trend? I'm not much of a trend follower and started planning our wedding 2 years ago when I picked Turquoise as one of our wedding colors...my bridesmaids' dresses, my flowers, favors, etc. So I think I started this 2010 trend for our 2010 wedding that began two years ago! They were following me!! Here is to the color of the year...and one of the colors of our 2010 wedding! Here's a beautiful inspiration board from The Perfect Palette with both of our wedding colors: Turquoise and Yellow! Oddly enough...the bride that asked her to make this board has my name!! It's meant to be! :)

Wedding Trends...

Which wedding trends catch your eye? Are you using cupcakes instead of a wedding cake? I love the way colored heels look with a beautiful ivory gown and how cute are short dresses for the spring and summer! Weddings can be full of trends but they can also be full of the things we love that just happen to be trendy. I fell in love with all lace gowns and never looked back at satin gowns ever again!
