I know, I know – it is only September! But hear me out, the holidays will be here before we know it. Additionally, I think we could all use a head start on holiday shopping. It’s better than scrambling to get everything at once and finding that the “hot item” of the season is sold out!

I’ve done this post in the past and it has always been a big hit. So I hope you enjoy this year’s finds. Who says advent calendars are just for the kids? Don’t forget to shop sooner rather than later – these will sell fast!

Have you heard the news? After Party Sale is now a thing of the past for Lilly lovers! I was a bit in shock when I heard the news. But no worries, there is now a sale of a different name.

Next week, Lilly Pulitzer will hold the first ever Sunshine Sale!

If you’ve been following me and reading the blog for a while, it is probably no secret that the past year has been a bit chaotic (and I’m sure everyone can relate). But when you add graduating college, moving 1,000+ miles, planning two weddings, and getting married into the mix of that (amongst a slew of other life events) – it is even crazier! Long story short, life isn’t what you expect it to be – and that is okay. But sometimes we catch ourselves slipping when we don’t necessarily have to be.

I’ve been in the “Disney spirit” lately since we are leaving for Walt Disney World TOMORROW! Plus, y’all have been requesting more Disney content, so I’m giving the people what they want. I occasionally write posts similar to this, showing my current favorites, for Lilly Pulitzer. Today I thought I’d do something similar for Disney – and I might start making it a bi-monthly thing, and perhaps even start Lilly posts again. Let me know your thoughts, and enjoy!

I am finally sharing what everyone wants to hear about – the wedding reception! Yes, a wedding is about the ceremony and the union between a couple. But let’s be honest, we all look forward to the fun part – the reception. I am glad to report that we got a lot of positive unsolicited feedback about our reception and wedding in general. During the day itself and the weeks after, people were telling us that we had one of the best (if not the best) weddings they had ever been to! I know I am biased, but I felt the same way.
