Okay maybe the day you were engaged you had the glow and the day you get married you will but that's about it. Although I am all for spray tanning for your big day, there are many things that come along with spray tanning that I… Continue

Apple of My Eye . . .

With school starting in literally days, and the heatwave continuing across the nation,  lately as an escape I find myself daydreaming of  chilly, crisp fall weather (my favorite time of year) where the familiar scent of spice, pumpkin and apple surround me.  Of course It also makes me think of Fall weddings and how beautiful they can be with the traditional colors of orange, red, brown, burgundy, yellow just to name a few.  Well if you are in the process of planning a Fall wedding or perhaps…
