Love this little bit of sparkle in the bouquet if it matches the mood of the day…and they’re a sweet keepsake.

Repeating the topic of clothing from the last post, I was SO impressed with a colleague who got married last summer and found a great bridesmaid’s dress @ Ann Taylor. It happened to be...
hi brides to be!
I’m always keeping my eyes peeled for new things and I recently came across two accessories I thought I’d pass along…
wraps by Elizabeth Gillett
another option for tiaras, headpieces…Christina Garcia
And a tip for brides with summer/early fall weddings…you’re probably working on clothing choices now for your bridesmaids, etc so remember you can find...
Aren’t these great?
A little spendier than normal stamps but they make a great gift or stamp when sending out something special (save the date cards, wedding thank you notes, birth announcements…). -m-
welp, the sweet life has come to an abrupt halt for me. my midwife, beth, suggested that everything I eat should be packed with nutritional value (lest I end up with a baby that’s h-u-g-e). If you know me you know I love all the yummy goodness of sugar :) Cupcakes, pancakes…see the emphasis on...
I sent my dad an e-mail a few days ago and at the end after writing all the great stuff going on at casa Mauer & m.m.p., I summed it up by saying "I’m just happy as a lark"…2006 is off to a fantastic start!
a few things making me happy at the moment…* i love...
Jason and I are trying to decide on a summer vacation…probably a week in early-mid July. Any ideas? Here’s the thing, we’ll be brand-new parents so we’re thinking a roadtrip may be a good way to start & we haven’t had a good roadtrip in a while so I’m sort of itching for one. So...
I photographed my first ever b-i-r-t-h in the wee hours of this morning (3-9am) and it was indescribable! It feels a little surreal when I think that I’ll be in a similar situation in 8-10 weeks.
Saying, "It was like witnessing a miracle." sounds SO cliche but truly there is nothing like it and it...
Another tip for brides to be…be sure to hire Claudia Engle if you’d like a custom monogram. They are beyond beautiful and something you can use in dozens of ways (get an embosser made, monogram linens, engrave items you receive for your wedding or just have a rubber stamp made so you can make your...
Alas, bridal shows are almost always held on Sundays (the day of the week I’ve reserved exclusively for r & r, visiting family & going to church…no work allowed) and it’s so hard to have the type of conversation that I’m interested in with 50 people who need your attention at once…I’m much better at...
Adorable fabric belts!
Aren’t these cute? I like the lacy ones…not that you’ll see these fitting around my current waist, I still thought I’d share :) -m-
So I really didn’t intend for it to be a secret but wintertime spells ’social hibernation’ for me while I work on Christmas portrait orders and such. Yes, I’m expecting…and over the moon excited about it. It’s something Jason and I have hoped for for a while. I’m due March 22nd…we even took time a...
