My “Sundae” Wedding Recap
by Alissa
Looking back, everything didn’t go exactly as planned but it was pretty darn close and, in some ways, way better than I expected.
Wedding Stuff: Deciding Not to Walk Alone

So, it’s 23 days until my wedding and I still haven’t figured out the “flower thing”. I’m not some flower hater. It’s just frustrating that flowers cost SO much simply because it’s a wedding.
