HONEYMOONING, CUPCAKES, PHOTOGRAPHER, and MORE

This Christmas break, I did some major wedding planning! Since I will be finishing up my LAST semester of nursing school in Greenville this spring, I figured I better complete a lot of items off my to-do list.

 
I finally met and booked my photographer! Her name is Amber Parker (soon to be Rhodes). Her business name is Chasing Moments Photography. Just over the past few months, I have seen her business grow tremendously! I am excited to see where God takes her career. She recently did one of my best friends, Maggie Hickman’s wedding. I have only seen a few pictures from the wedding so far, and let me tell y'all...they are beautiful. I am so blessed to have her as my photographer!

Okay, okay...here is the big and exciting news…Devin and I have officially booked our honeymoon!! We will spend our first week as Mr. and Mrs. Devin Sellers in JAMACIA!!! I told Devin to narrow down the search to about 5 places and I’d pick from those. He worked so hard to make sure he found the perfect place for us to honeymoon.

 
So…I got my to-do list from the knot.com and it told me to start researching bakeries and to do cake tastings! Devin and I had no problem starting this task. We started researching local bakeries and the price for cake is jaw dropping. After Devin started seeing the prices, he was determined he was just going to bake the cupcakes himself because he has 2 cupcake pans and he could do it in no time…come on babe…this is NOT happening. So we continued our search and came across this lady out of Leland. Her company is call Cooper and Chloe Cupcakes. We emailed her and asked if we could do a cake tasting. She prepared us a ½ dozen cupcakes to try. Let me just say…they were FABULOUS! She is super talented and very nice, and I am so excited to have found her.

 
My sister and I got to go to a Bridal Expo together as BRIDES! It was so fun walking around together viewing all of the local vendors! Once vendors found out that we were sisters, they would immediately turned to our mom and say "Oh my gosh, how are you handling all of this?" hehe. My sister and I are very close, so planning for our weddings together has been such a great experience. 
 
 
 
These are just a few of the details we got set in stone while I was home for Christmas break. I am now back in Greenville to finish up my last semester in college. Time has really flown. I feel like just yesterday I was moving in the dorm for my freshman year. I am really allowing my faith to guide me in life right now. I will soon be applying for jobs as a nurse! As soon as I figure out where I’ll be working, then we will begin house hunting! I have a couple of job openings I have my eye on. I will continue to pray for guidance and have constant faith knowing that God will lead me to where I can serve him.
