So my fiancé and I had our engagement pictures today. Of course I didn’t realize until we are almost at the place for our engagement pictures that I am still wearing my work ring and not my engagement...
Hey all! I just needed to get a rough idea for my own sanity about bachelorette parties. I have bridesmaids who live all over the country (Texas, Cali, Florida etc.) and I wanted to do something...
