It’s been a while since I’ve shared a wedding blog post, so today I wanted to share about my bridal portrait experience. When I first started wedding planning, I wrote off bridal portraits early on.

One thing that we put a lot of time and thought into during wedding planning were our save the dates and wedding invitations. I knew that these items are the first impression guests would have of our wedding. Needless to say, I wanted them to be perfect! We also had to consider how we would …

I ordered something from Lulu’s several years ago on a whim and haven’t turned back since! I love the quality of their clothes at the price point. They also have fast shipping which is nice! What I love even more than the every day clothing at Lulu’s is their Bridal Shop! They have a white …
