Gifting my girls!

Last night was my amazing small bachelorette party. It was perfect :) And though it was only spent with my bridal party and a close friend I had an amazing time [but I'll talke more about that later]
I feel soo grateful for having such amazing friends I decided to FINALLY show what I'm gifting them. I kinda went crazy lol and I don't think I'm done. With 4 days until our "rehearsal" dinner when I'll be gifting them, I think I might go pick up some extra goodies just cos they spoiled me good and I want to do the same. For now here's what i got!

 The black cutch in the back is for the girls to use the day of the wedding, and after if they want. I can't get it to sit up too good but my mom a made the clutches for them :) It looks great! The red scarf is from Pier 1. If it gets cold that day, they can use the scarves to go with their black dresses and red flowers!

 I SWEAR by sleeping masks so I got them each a sleeping mask with a different saying on it. Then I got them each a luggage tag with their initial on it [both luggage tags and sleepings masks were from Michaels for a dollar!] The little box is what holds their jewelry.
 I absolutely love their jewelery. My mom found the bracelets for them and they are some sparkly bracelets! The earrings I bought from XSRE. They sparkle perfectly need to the bracelet.
And this is the necklace and earrings I got for my sister [my maid of honor] who is wearing a strapless dress. My other bridesmaids are wearing a one shoulder dress and I didnt think a necklace would go too good with that.

Now can you fucking believe with our wedding 5 days away... Jose STILL has not figured out what to get his groomsmen. And every idea I throw out apparently isn't good enough! The other day we were at the mall for 5 HOURS!! with the intention of buying for them. Did that happen? Nooope! I'm livid with him. Alot of the shit that needs to be done is not done because my fiance is the only procrastinator. lol I dont know WHAT I am going to do!!

Gift it to me baby!

 Corny title? Naaah!

I've been M.I.A. because... I'm getting married in 13 DAYS!! I'm kinda going nuts around here so I warn you I'll be absent a whole lot but I really plan on posting and filling in on last minute details like what we are gifting the bridal party, my bathroom baskets, my amazing photo props [more!] and a bunch of other things. My bachelorette party is NEXT WEEKEND!! WHoo!! So look out for that one! :) In the meantime... thank you so much to all my *new* followers! Welcome and I hope not to bore you!

On to the post now!

This pretty much sumps up how I feel about my favorite wedding gift.


It might be the ugliest face ever... but I've seen that face on me before! I've been making that face my whole life.


Oh yes. My sister on the left and me and my "cheesy" smile on the right. What can I say! I don't change! lol  But anyway, we got gifted some pretty awesome shit. First of all, HALF of my gifts are from Crate and Barrel. That is fucking awesome. I didn't think I'd get any of them! So I'm souped!

Well I got a lot of these...

And if you can't tell by my face I plan on wearing every. single. one. There were some pretty dirty gifts for a bridal shower, I must say! lol Even my Aunt's 80 year old mother in law gifted me lingerie. And it might have been the cutest one I got! lol

I got some gifts that really made Jose happy... like this monster

Jose, I swear, drinks 2 cups of coffee a day out of this thing. I don't drink coffee so he gives this baby lots of use! Then we got a grill press since Jose does the grilling!


Oh yes, we made out good. There is ALOT more but these are the highlights. I'm excited, I'm grateful and I'm eager to start using anything [except the second crock pot which i'll be returning shortly]

Favors that make you go.. wtf??

Jose & I have been thinking alot about our favors and what'd they be. We want something that'll really feel or seem like us. I've been checking out favors on-line and came across some really strange ones.

Seriously, if I went to a wedding where these were the favors my genuine reaction would be "what the fuck??" I went to a destination wedding, got a towel! Fall weddings, got candles, chocolates and wine toppers. In fact, that seems to be all the favors I've collected. But these... I wouldn't know what to do with!

A "heart warmer" hand warmer... what the fuck??


a cheese grater... what the fuck??

a "slice of love" pizza cutter... what the fuck??


a "olive you" olive dish and spreader... what the fuck??


a sewing kit.... what the fuck??

Uhm, what if I don't sew? What if I hate olives? What if I don't make my own pizza? What if I all ready have a cheese grater? What if I wouldn't ever use a hand warmer?

What if all the above might actually be true? Shut up... dont hate.

Sorry if any of my readers have actually had these as wedding favors. But if you've been to a wedding with a unique wedding favor let me know! My brother in law told me he went to a wedding where they had star wars pez dispensers... what the fuck?? [but that's actually REALLY unique!] Lemme know yo! I am dillusional!!

P.s. all of these favors are from myweddingfavors.com but don't judge on these favors, I actually saw ALOT of really cool wedding favors! Just not any of these!

My Weekend Recap!

My weekend was nothing special lol I'll be honest... I watched my fiance play my Lego Star Wars game [yes I play Lego video games - I have Batman, Star Wars and Indiana Jones and can not WAIT for Harry Potter in May cos Harry Potter is my FAVE!! All of these are actually lol] Anyway... im THIS close to finishing but he wants to finish it for me! lol

Ooh and Saturday my fellow friend who is engaged, Wendy and I went to register at Crate and Barrel!! It was soooo much fun! I'm dying to do it again! We had food and yummy mimosa's for breakfast! Got some free makeup from Mary Kay and had the whole store to ourselves! :) I registered for 26 things! Ooh and we got a goody bag!

I was sooo excited to get home and open it! And when I did I was quite delighted to find 2 champagne flutes!

And Look!! On the rim its shaped like a heart! Aww...


YaY! One less thing to buy for our wedding :) I actually had a dream last night about our wedding and it was chaos!! I couldn't get the menus down on the table before guests went to sit lol


Anyway Today I actually have off from work :) and my fiance might play hookie and since its actually a NICE day for once maybe I can convince him to take me out somewhere!

I Know its early but...

These are the absolute greatest cufflinks to give my fiance as a little wedding present :)

I found them at The Clay Collection's shop on ETSY and my jaw dropped! I was looking for PS3 cufflinks [and they did have them!] but when I saw the LOST cufflinks I was sold! I don't know what Jose loves more... his PS3 or LOST but I KNOW he will LOOOOVE this!

It's amazing the things you find on etsy!
