Easter is kind of a strange holiday for young married couples. Do you get each other baskets? Do you hide them from each other? Do you make a fancy dinner? Or do you just think of the Savior and go to church and wait to start traditions until you have your own kids?
Ethan and I talked about what we wanted to do, and we decided that we would do Easter baskets. Anytime we would see an Easter section in the months leading up to Easter, we looked for baskets, but could not find anything cute. We ended up finding these cute matching totes in the dollar section at Target (holla! I'm obsessed.) And the Easter planning began.
For several weeks, we secretly decided what to put in each other's baskets. With stockings, baskets, and pretty much every holiday in general, we try to set a budget/limit so we are giving and receiving similar things. On Easter morning, I set out our baskets and when Ethan woke up, I told him we had to see if the Easter bunny had come yet!!
He did.
Okay, so I am not kidding when I say that my wedding was the most beautiful wedding I've ever been to. I don't even feel bad saying that because my mom did 99% of everything, therefore all credit goes to her.
Since Ethan and I were up in Idaho in the months prior to our wedding, this superwoman of a mom put together this gorgeous, princess-like, perfect wedding in THREE MONTHS.
I told her I wanted it to be light pink and silver/sparkles and glam, but not over the top. I asked for fresh flowers and she basically spent three months texting me pictures and calling me to make sure everything was perfect.
I can't thank her enough for making my dream wedding come to life. She is incredible, but not offering her services to anyone else, anytime soon because it was a lot of work :) Here are just a few details to capture how perfect and gorgeous this wedding of mine was, all thanks to her.
