Let's work some Magic Bullet!
Please tell me I’m not the only one… It seems no matter what…even when I was a Pac 10 collegiate athlete I still wasn’t happy with my body. I now look back to that and wonder what I was so worried about - God what I would give to have that body back… After graduating I ended up in a high stress desk job and you can imagine what happened with that - stress, not...
The Small Details - Old Barn Windows
I have always loved the look of old barn windows - something that reminds me of my childhood at my grandparents farm house. I stumbled upon a family selling barn windows over 80 years old! So Jonnathan and I headed up there and picked a couple of them out - they have a ton of character and ranged between $5 and $10, which is a really good deal! I knew there had to be a creative way to use them...
Aren't these adorable!
I found these on ETSY, created by Mollusa, and LOVE them! What do you think about having bridesmaids carry the clutch with these cute flowers on it instead of a bouquet of flowers? Would that be weird?
Help!? Bridesmaid Dresses!?
I am in love with the bridesmaid dresses from Urban Outfitters - however they no longer carry the dress. Do you have any idea where I can find something similar in shades of brown and green?
I love how natural, comfy, and adorable they are!!! Help?!
I seriously made a powerpoint to show my ideas to...
My family likes to tease me for putting together a “slide show” of my ideas for our wedding. Yep - I actually have a powerpoint put together of all my ideas! I know I know - so I’m a little silly, but heck - it was fun and a great way to keep all my ideas together!
Our Photographers!
Jonnathan is an aspiring photographer, so finding photographers within our budget and the quality we wanted (Jonnathan is super picky about photography)..well I thought it was going to be quite difficult. Thankfully though, we found FS Photography - they are perfect for us! We love their down to earth nature and the blend of photography they offer. Check out their blog!
The Location is Booked!!!
Soooo excited!!! After spending hours upon hours searching for the perfect venue we finally found it- Postlewait’s Country Weddings in the Willamette Valley outside of Portland - It was really important to both Jonnathan and I that we find a place that was peaceful, natural, and intimate. We both share a deep appreciation and love for the natural beauty of the outdoors and love how the...

Why Unabashed Bliss?
My love for everything wedding began as a young girl dreaming of that special day. I was that girl - you know the tall one, who bites her nails, doesn’t like to brush her hair and would rather write make believe stories, play barbies and talk about boy crushes. At the age of six I already had a binder full of magazine clippings with images of my dream winter wedding. We’re talking...
