Wedding News: Choosing Your Bridal Party

photographer: The Pinwheel Collective

What things do you need to take into account when you choose those few or many special people for your wedding party? Eenie meenie minny moe! Luckily for me I have 3 sisters, so they obviously made the cut, not just because we are bonded by blood, but because I actually like them! Next was my cousin who is pretty much like my sister in regards to closeness. After that I decided hey! I actually really like Jon’s sister Raquel so I really want her to be a part of this. The hardest part was deciding who of my friends to choose. Just look at recent friends? Only long time friends can be contenders? Who is expecting me to pop the question? Who is the most important to me and really knows me? All of these are questions that went through my head when deciding which friends to choose, after all I did not want to have a 20 person bridal party (not saying it is wrong, just not for me).

This is another one of my work outfits for an early morning gig. Top-knot hair is perfect easy to do so you can spend a few more minutes sleeping. The rest of the outfit I just grabbed random pieces and they just happened to work! For the final touch I threw on this necklace as a statement piece that one of my besties Caroline gave me for my bday! 

And of course the iconic Starbucks to-go cup, and no there is not a pumpkin spiced latte in that, just some English Breakfast tea, one of my faves to zing me awake. 

What steps to you take to expedite your getting ready routine?
