When Two Worlds Collide

As I talked about in my last blog, I got engaged this summer. I have the majority of it planned and ready to go, but I have to tell you, my favorite part has been bringing Anthony's world and mine together.

If you've ever met Anthony and me, you know we are complete opposites. Anthony is a BIG country boy. He grew up in a small village called Bainbridge and it is in the middle of nowhere. This village is so small and country-like, hunting in the morning is an excuse to show up late to school. Me, on the other hand, I graduated from a city school and traveled to big cities with my mom to buy dresses for her bridal stores. Anthony is very quiet and I am not at all. I think, in our case, opposites attract though. We will be together for seven years come February and I couldn't have picked a better guy for me.

The venue we chose gives off some barn and woods vibes, but has fancy chandeliers and rock pillars that really make it more fancy. This gives it a good mix of our personalities. Along with the venue, our decorations pull in both of us. The center pieces for the tables will have mason jars filled with lavender on top of a wood piece. The lavender shows the girly side of me, but the wood and mason jars really pull in the country-side of Anthony.

We really have had fun planning the wedding and making our personalities and style collide. I hope people get a rustic chic feel at our wedding. But, we are planning on having around 300 guests, so if I don't go insane before the wedding takes place, we will call it a win.

Snapchat

I remember when I first downloaded Snapchat. I remember thinking "I have to look presentable every day now because people will actually see what I look like every day." For everyone that doesn't know, Snapchat is a social media app that started at just a way to communicate by sending pictures back and forth. It has now advanced into a form of social media. You can share stories, which are pictures or videos that everyone you are friends with on snapchat can see, and you can see different magazine type subscription stories. Now that I have had Snapchat for multiple years, I don't know what I would do without it. I snap my friends on a daily basis and it's basically the root of all my laugher. Now you can make snap groups, which means you can have multiple people in a group and you can send pictures to the group like normal group message, and I have so many with my friends. We send anything from drama we want to spill to TikToks in these groups and it is so much f...

Birdin' Around Town

One of my new favorite activities is Birding. I found Bird's in Atlanta, Georgia two years ago and every time I go to any city that has Birds, it is a necessity. You're probably asking what Birds are. Bird is a company that has placed motor scooters around cities to help with transportation and help with the carbon footprint. Bird has created a fun yet helpful way to get around the city. It is super easy to use as well. All you do is download the Bird app, add a credit or debit card, then you're set. When it's time to bird, you pull up the app and scan the bird you are wanting to use. Once you scan it, it will begin your ride and you can ride for as long as you want. The more you use the app, the cheaper your rides become. When you're done, you select end ride and take a picture of your scooter to prove you didn't wreck it. This concept is so smart and a great way to show how technology and social media is growing everyday. Who knew you would be able to driv...

Dream Job Became Reality

When you hear someone is a model what do you picture? A beautiful girl with flawless hair, skin, makeup? Maybe someone that's really tall and slender. Yeah, I did too, well until I had the chance to model myself. I never in a million years would have imagined that I could have the opportunity to model for anyone at all. I am 5 feet, 5 inches tall, I weigh way more than a typical model and I have more visible muscle than most girls do, but this didn't prevent me from booking my first modeling job in 2016. I was so excited because I had traveled to shows with my mom to buy dresses for her bridal and formal store for a few years already and every time I wanted to model so bad but never thought I would get the chance. Like I said before, I did my first show in March 2016 and I have continued modeling since. I have modeled for two dress designers; Rachel Allan and House of Wu . With a job this like comes traveling, but I can't complain. I have traveled to cities like Chica...
