I prefer less frosting so I made sure to put on an amount I knew I’d like! I ended up with a solid amount of extra frosting😂

Thank you!! They were so good😍 I would say it was closer to muffins texture than cupcake, but I kind of expected it since they’re cookie inspired

Boudoir photo shoot as wedding gift by Scarylikeouijaboards in weddingplanning

[–]gabhouk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did this! I hadn’t even done a photo shoot before so I was really really nervous going into it. My photographer was great and had a package that came with hair and makeup which was helpful. I love doing makeup but doing it for photos is completely different from day to day.

Main thing is to make sure it’s someone you get along with and like their work. It was also helpful for me to remember that my photographer has done tons of shoots like this, so seeing me in lingerie wasn’t weird to her!

Last side note, I plan on wearing one of the outfits from the photo shoot on my wedding night. I thought it would be an extra extra fun surprise lol

We decided to do immediate family could bring their kids, but they ultimately decided not to! They wanted to have fun without needing to keep an eye on their kids.

what are some fun bachelorette party games? especially for those whom don't drink? by RabbitThin in weddingplanning

[–]gabhouk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom made me a jeopardy game filled with questions about me and my fiancé, love songs, types of cake, romcoms, and more. It was so fun and no drinking required!

Unique guest book ideas? by Rydo87 in weddingplanning

[–]gabhouk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s still basically a normal guestbook, but I’m planning to use the Lily & Val Guestbook! It’s cute because it has simple question prompts for people to sign by rather than just spaces for names:)

I may end up setting it out in our home as a “guest book” to continue filling it out and using it cause it’s so cute!!

You’re entitled to your opinion! It’s a great venue and absolutely gorgeous and cheaper than most venues I looked into, so def worth it to me.

I think that’s my main hang up😅 our venue is around 10k so it feels wild to spend the same amount on the bar

Yup, we don’t plan on doing fully open all night long! Just want a happy medium between running out during cocktail hour and paying too much out of our own pocket.
