The Perfect Accent, Part 1: Earrings

January 9th, 2009 @ 1:30 pm by Mrs. Cupcake

Since I bought my wedding dress a full year before our wedding, I had plenty of time to search for the perfect accessories. The only problem was that I’m not so great at accessorizing on a day-to-day basis… it did take me a bit of time to decide what I was looking for, but I managed to achieve just the look I wanted.

On the wedding…

One Ringy-Dingy… Two Ringy-Dingy…

January 5th, 2009 @ 10:57 am by Mrs. Cupcake

Can you believe I have been blogging on Weddingbee for over a year and I have yet to show you my ring? What kind of poor excuse for a bride am I, right? Well, since everyone else is doing it (and yes, if they were going to jump off of a bridge, I would do that, too), I figured there was no better time than…

DIY Ribbon Wreaths

December 29th, 2008 @ 2:05 pm by Mrs. Cupcake

Around Halloween, I saw this great idea for ribbon wreaths via Design Crush, originally found on thelongthread.com:

I didn’t have the time to create any then, but I kept the idea in the back of my mind, and with the hopes of having a semi-homemade Christmas, I decided to make some wreaths as gifts for some family members. I am really excited at how they turned…

Post-Wedding Non-Chop

December 22nd, 2008 @ 9:27 am by Mrs. Cupcake

Lots of bees have done the “post-wedding chop” — after growing their hair out for the big day, they got out the scissors after the honeymoon to don a new (easier) look. Me? Well, I have straightened my naturally curly hair for about the last 7 years, and in doing so I have always kept it shorter so it was easier to straighten (but I…

Downsizing Christmas

December 15th, 2008 @ 3:13 pm by Mrs. Cupcake

Mr. Cupcake and I have always been pretty realistic with our Christmas gifts for each other — we don’t go overboard buying each other frivolous items that we don’t need, and we always have a modest spending limit for each other (I think our highest ever was $150). This year, due to the suffering economy, we decided to cap things off at just $50 each;…

Will Not Attend

December 8th, 2008 @ 9:30 am by Mrs. Cupcake

Every bride knows the rule of thumb that about 20% of invited guests will decline your wedding invitation. I’m not going to say that we weren’t a little relieved that all 227 of our invited guests couldn’t attend our wedding — we were very pleased when our final count came in at 182, just about exactly the number of people we had hoped for. However,…

Post-Wedding Vows

November 19th, 2008 @ 12:40 pm by Mrs. Cupcake

Now that I’ve been a bride, I feel as if I have peered into the world that only brides truly know. You know the world I mean: the world in which you feel the frustration of waiting for those last few late RSVPers… where you wish people would stop asking you questions that they could figure out for themselves if they would just look at…

Our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner made everything feel really real. After all of the planning and coordinating and nitpicking of details, the first “official” events of our wedding weekend were upon us, and I was completely excited. Our rehearsal at the church went smoothly (and was actually really fun, I thought!), and afterwards everyone made it to the Ship Inn in time for a delicious…

Five Years Ago…

October 31st, 2008 @ 8:29 am by Mrs. Cupcake

Five years ago today — Friday, October 31, 2003 — I met a boy. I thought this boy was cute, despite his mullet wig, but I had no idea that this boy would soon become the love of my life, my husband, and my family.

It is hard to believe all that has happened in five years. We met, we fell in love, and we dated…

About Mrs. Cupcake

Rather than hire a professional videographer to capture our wedding day, we opted to instead splurge on our photography and have a family member videotape the key moments of our day (for a generous fee of $0.00). Although I drool along with everyone else over the stunning footage from the likes of StillMotion (Mrs. Milkshake’s amazing epic wedding film, anyone?), for us it truly meant…

My Bridal Body Journey

October 14th, 2008 @ 10:36 am by Mrs. Cupcake

It’s no surprise that most brides want to look their absolute best for their wedding day. In attaining this goal, many of us diet, exercise, obsess and nitpick every part of our bodies. It’s not always healthy, and we’re not always proud to admit that we are depriving ourselves of that piece of bread because we are determined to fit into a dress that is…
