be well: Postable- Online Address Book + Our Engagement Party

I had the advantage of a few friends getting married before me so I could learn a few tricks of the trade. I lived with Lauren during the bulk of her wedding planning and I remember her telling me about Postable. It is a website where you can add names, addresses, phone numbers, birth dates, and whatever else you may need to remember about a person. You can even mail cards from the Postable site! The best part? You can send friends a link and they can add their information and address to your contact book. I have already used this virtual address book numerous times!

JT and I used Postable to store addresses for our engagement party. Speaking of...

JT's family hosts a horseshoe tournament twice a year so we decided to incorporate an engagement party into the fall tourny. Most of our friends already know each other (8 years later) so we just wanted a low key party that would continue the celebration into the night. JT and his family worked so hard all week to make the party come to life and they did a wonderful job! From the decorative lights and flowers to the Mexican buffet, we couldn't have asked for a better celebration with friends!

{I had more individual pics, but my phone broke...so...could you guys resend them to me?;)}

Leigh even brought these adorable margaritas!

Like my outfit? My fashionable friend, Anna dressed me! Check back for her fashion post coming soon! As for Anna, and the other bridesmaids, I gave them Horseshoe necklaces I ordered from Etsy. I ordered from Keep it Close, first and they were so cute, but she didn't have enough when I needed more. Then I found some from Tangerine Jewelry Shop, and they were beautiful too! They each looked a little different but overall, I was so happy with the necklaces. Plus, both shops offered bridal discounts and were super easy to work with.
