It’s very exciting…. My parents 40th Wedding Anniversary is coming up in May and my parents have decided to renew their vows and do a full on wedding. The first time around they eloped in the middle of the night to Reno and got married. My mom fell into the same trap many of my brides do where the day starts becoming about pleasing everyone else and before you know it your wedding decisions are being made by those around you and you end up with colors your mom picked and a dress your sister thought made your butt look like there was less “junk in the trunk”. So after 40 years together they have decided to celebrate by having the wedding they always dreamed of. Isn’t that so fun??? Well guess who is in charge of the planning process? Literally totally in charge… My mom has given us full decision making power which is awesome! My sister and I and we couldn’t be more delighted!! This is so much fun for me because Jeff and I got married 10 years ago in Maui and I literally planned the wedding in 10 minutes. They sent me a one sheet and I simply had to check the boxes of the things I wanted. While this was convenient I didn’t get to go through the whole process of planning a wedding so this is fun for me especially with all of the cool things they have now!! So my parents have definitely come to the right place with all of the fabulous connections we have in the wedding biz!! So I will be taking you along with me on my journey to plan my parents wedding. So here are the details so far….. They are getting married at the Golf Course where they live and having the reception in the Club House. Next step was determining colors. I jumped on the Style Me Pretty website where we are a Little Black Book Preferred Vendor and looked at their Inspiration Board and showed my mom some different ideas and she fell in love with Navy Blue and Lime Green! Super cute!!! So we are off to a great start!! Stay tuned to our first mission… finding bridesmaid dresses at Twirl Boutique!!!

This is our inspiration…
