Most of it can work for anyone, but since I'm in Kansas City, the location-based ideas (like venues, vendors, and activities) are KC-inspired.

As a 2025 bride who did a bunch of DIYs but also doesn't love the "look" of a DIY here are the things that absolutely saved me leading up to the big day.

I trust these people with my life! And my wedding.

Set the tone for your casual ranch theme nuptials with the charming Rustic Cowboy Boots Western Floral Wedding Collection. Personalize wedding invitations, save the dates, rsvp cards, thank you notes, favor tags, wine labels and disposable paper reception products. Each custom wedding paper product features a black and white sepia tone farm style photograph of leather cowboy boots with a barn wood background and white flowers adorning the corners. I think these are perfect inspo or ideas for your informal barn party marriage ceremony and reception celebration event. Invitations are available as a printed invitation for mailing or as a digital download for easy sharing digitally online.

What to wear to someone else's wedding can be overwhelming. Is this too white? Is this too formal? Is this too casual?

Let someone else give you some suggestions to make the process a whole lot easier!

Fall is literally the most popular time of the year for weddings. So it would stand to reason that it's one of the most popular times of year to elope too! Most of the country has ideal weather in the fall (there's a reason Tennesseee Fall is my favorite season) and there's always so many fun things to do when you go somewhere fun in the fall, I mean what town or city doesn't have some sort of fall festival? Here's my list of the top places to elope in the fall based on their weather and potentially how busy it'll be around that time of year.

Etsy gift ideas for every special person in your life! These are some of my favorite finds, and plan on shopping from this list in the upcoming months. I hope you find something here that your special someone will love!

With how saturated the wedding market is, I highly recommend going out of your way to support local and small business owners and contractors! They will put so much more care and attention into you and your day than a big corporation. If something isn’t perfect, they will make it right and provide great customer service every step of the way. Check out some of these vendors I used for my 2023 Maple Grove, MN wedding!

Getting a gift for the lady in your life is about more than just picking something pretty—it’s about showing that you see her, know her, and value her. Whether she’s your partner, mom, sister, or best friend, the perfect gift reflects her personality, passions, and your shared connection.
