Gorgeous Fall Fashion

Hello all! I hope everyone had a fabulous long weekend. I spent my weekend in Niagara Falls with Michael and had a super time! Michael won money at the casino and I bought two Coach bags from the outlet...not a bad weekend if you ask me!

The first day of school always marks the first unoffical day of fall for me. I woke up this morning with a chill but loved it. I cannot wait to pull my Michael Kors boots out of the closet and zip them up. That said, check out some of the awesome pieces in this years fall fashion collection.

Marriage Proposals....

On Friday my best friend got engaged to her long time, wonderful boyfriend and I couldn't be more thrilled for them! He proposed in such a perfect, romantic and thoughtful way that it got me thinking about proposals and how they're all amazing!

How did you get engaged? Were you surprised? Did you have a say in your gorgeous ring?

Michael surprised me in Punta Cana while on a family trip over Christmas two years ago and I couldn't have asked for a more perfect proposal!

Enjoy the Party,

Fun Accent Pieces

As I drive past our house every day I think about fun pieces I want to add to make our house feel like a home. Isn't it so, we all want our homes to feel lived in and loved? I'm a big believer in this which I was my eyes are always open for fun, unique accent pieces.

Here are a few that I love:

My Fascination With Wreaths

I have recently fallen in love with wreaths of all different shapes, sizes and colours. Shannon from What's Up Whimsy did a post that you can find here on a Pom Pom Wreath that I just love. I'd found some other wreaths that I think are fabulous too!

Fruit Cones - Part 2

Back in July I did a post that you can find here on fruit cones. At the engagement party on Saturday I created the fruit cones as part of the dessert and they were a huge success, everyone loved them! I was worried they would get soggy really fast or fall apart but they didn't.

I put watermelon, raspberries, cherries, peaches, blue berries and melon in the cones. Let me know what type of fruit you try.

Enjoy the Party,

Neat decor ideas

On Saturday Lipstik Events hosted an engagement party for a fabulous couple. The event was fun and a big success! I thought I'd share a picture of the floral arrangments I created for the engagement party.

A few weeks ago was my first bridal shower and I wanted to show you all some pictures of the added touches we did to make the event fabulous!

Three and a Half Months

Everything is starting to come together... finally! Michael and I are having a two year engagement which makes this whole process painfully long. Almost every person I know who has got engaged after us is getting married before us. It's really not fair!

Four months yesterday is our wedding day and in three and a half months yesterday our house closes! Watching our house go up is making everything seem very real and exciting.

Check out the progress:

As long as the portable toilet is gone when we move in I'll be a happy camper.

Enjoy the Party,

Nicole :)

Wedding Cake

One of the last things I have to book for the wedding is a wedding cake. I'm not a fan of cake which is why I've been putting this off. If I had my way I wouldn't have one but apparently that's faux pas so I'm having one.

Side note, I said "I" or "I'm" a lot in that sentence, I must remember this is Michael's wedding too, oops!
Anyways back to wedding cakes. I've found a few pretty cakes that I'd like your opinion on.
