Sunday morning we woke up and headed down for breakfast before hitting the pool again. After a few hours of going back and forth from the pool to playing in the kids club contests we had some lunch, and then headed to hit their river up!!!

Read moreEngagement Sessions and What to Wear
One of the most common questions I get from brides is "What should we wear" in our engagement pictures"? Honestly it is a little bit more involved than just your outfits.

When the first bowl of chocolate is ready pour on wax paper and spread it out. Then after the next bowl of chocolate is melted add green food coloring to the bowl, and pour on top of white spread.

After the whole thing is covered refrigerate for 30 minutes, and then break apart.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!!

This week I had the pleasure of being one of the speakers at Brunch with Blake. Brunch with Blake is an industry event in AZ that is put on by a social media management company. My topic I was asked to speak on was "Instagram in the Wedding World". I don't claim to be an expert on the subject, but I shared everything I have learned the last 2 years. It was such a fun time eating an amazing brunch from Fresh from the Kitchen, and drinking mimosas from A Couple of Bartenders!!!

I frequently get asked about my hair extensions so I thought I would do a little post on them for you guys. First they ARE Top Knot clip-ins so they are not sewed or glued in although I am thinking I would LOVE to do this too, but I have commitment issues so I have not decided--HA!!
