One look at you my whole life falls in line. I prayed for you, before I called you mine. I can’t believe it’s true sometimes… I get to Love You. It’s the best thing that I’ll ever do.

I seriously get all weepy looking through these photos and thinking of what a gift it is to get to love this man and be loved by him. Wow. God has been so good.

I’m so excited to share some of our favorite photos from our Engagement shoot with you. But first of all, I want to introduce the two amazing people behind the camera that helped capture “us”. If you’ve been following along then you briefly got to meet Seth & Tenielle of Feather & Stone Photography in this blog: HERE

These two absolutely talented photographers have been such an incredible blessing to us and the best addition to our Wedding Dream …

Where to begin when planning your Bachelorette Weekend?!

I’m going to be honest with you, getting started with planning my Bachelorette Weekend was probably one of the biggest stressors for me and my girls. One, because I didn’t give us very much time to plan…getting engaged in January and planning a wedding for the end of April didn’t give us many weeks to plan, and not a whole lot of weekends to choose from to get away. And the second reason Bachelorette weekend planning was such a stressor was the question “where can we go?”.  And third, once we picked Sonoma, there were sooooo many options of where to stay, what to do, how we’d get there, etc. So that’s why I’ve decided to share this blog post with you! I needed something so straight to the point to help us navigate and plan the weekend, I hope this can be that for you. Wether or not you’re just …

Oh what an adventure me and 7 of of my best girlfriends had for my Bachelorette weekend. If you follow my Instagram stories, you saw that we experienced some interesting hurdles to getting to our destination for the Bachelorette weekend. (If you don’t follow my Instagram stories, you can still watch the journey on my Instagram, in the highlights titled, “Bachelorette”.) The journey had some twists and turns, and it made for a memorable start to the weekend. And I’m so excited to share more about our travels and festivities, but first, I wanted to share something from my heart.

God has been so good to me in leading me along some interesting paths that have led me to every single one of these friendships that I have. We have each shared seasons of highs and lows, tears, laughter, joy. There have been multiple prayers shared in person, over coffee, over the phone, …

From Tenley’s Kitchen to Your Bachelor Viewing Party

Week 3 of The Bachelor

Another Monday night of Sean and his Bachelorettes brings me another Bachelor viewing party with a few friends! This Monday is a busy one, so this week my viewing party menu is very simple and practical. We need these kinds of “go to’s” when hosting, right? I thought I’d share this easier spread with all of you, because we can’t always be “superwoman” (or superman) and we can use some shortcuts!

First of all, I have to say how much I’ve been enjoying Sean as the Bachelor! What do you all think? I’m sold on the fact that he’s a good guy, very genuine. It’s refreshing, but of course we still have the ladies we’re all figuring out. I personally feel like I like one girl one second, and then the next, she says something or does something and I find myself scratching my head and wondering, …
