If you're anything like me, spending your childhood days watching Father of the Bride inspired you to only have the very best on your special day. Even today, blogs like Style Me Pretty and sites like Pinterest further spark our imaginations when it comes to our future nuptials. We guarantee you have a "weddings" board---even if it's secret. In honor of wedding season, here I've rounded up a few things from my personal board that will make you seriously swoon.


Location, Location, Location

Some dream of a rustic barn, old church or ocean views. No matter the place, make sure it's somewhere to remember.


Invitations Are the First Impressions

Set the scene of your big day with the cutest invitations. Whether you spend hours hand-making them or decide to order them from a cute website, they are the first things your guests will see.

Rings, Please!

The sparkle of your ring will complete any outfit! Round or princess, the perfect ring is out there somewhere for you.

Flowers Are Always In Bloom

Fresh flowers will be the last thing in your hand before your husband's hand, so make them beautiful!

Let Them Eat Cake!

Give your guests something to look at, besides you of course. But don't forget to eat it too!

Dresses For Your Squad

You have to keep your main ladies looking good, so out with the puffy '80s sleeves and in with the pastel chiffon. You're bridesmaids will be thankful.

It's All In the Details

Plan a little something extra for the reception. Whether it's sparklers or a lantern send off, you'll remember it forever!

And most importantly...

The dress

We all dream about it. We all have our own ideas of what it could be. Search around for the one that makes you cry and remember, never settle for anything but the best!

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
