I know I have neglected our blog over the last couple months but the truth is - there wasn't much to update until recently. I've checked some major things off the list this month: 1. Booked an awesome, I mean awesome band, 2. We took our engagement pictures (more to come on that) and last but definitely not least...3. I asked eight very special girls to stand next to me on our big day! Seeing as we have such a long engagement I was able to take my time deciding how I would ask each of them. I knew I wanted something to represent a part of our wedding day. From the get-go I've had several "musts" for the wedding, every girl does right? On that list is a s'mores bar with fire pits outside, I just adore the idea. So I shared my thoughts with two extremely creative people I work with to help me design a s'mores kit for each of these ladies. Below is what the three of us came up with!

I can't even count on all my fingers and toes the number of
s'mores I ate during this process |

| The box that went to my sister and matron of honor |

Bailey sent me this picture text when she opened her box.
Needless to say she accepts the MOH duties :) |
The reactions from the rest of the ladies were just as precious. I'm so blessed to have such a wonderful group of girls in my life and have them a part of our wedding!
Allyson, my amazing sister and Matron of Honor
