Wedding Planning: Rain or Shine


This past Saturday it rained for the WHOLE day! It didn't let up and we had no sunshine at all. I didn't mind it too much but can you imagine if Saturday was your wedding day? Well ... I'm going to have to imagine that and mentally prepare myself since it's always a possibility. I'm getting married the first week of November and it tends to rain a lot in October and November in Toronto. When we were picking our date I may or may not have checked the average rainfall in Toronto per month and was surprised to see that it really is more or less the same every month. I think every bride needs to be prepared so I'm going to have my rain boots ready and some umbrellas for us and the wedding party. I've got lots of real nice spots to take photos at our venue that work well even if it does rain. Nothing is going to ruin my day and to top is off I met with our florist yesterday and she thinks that less sun in our venue will actually work better with the décor and flowers. So here's to a somewhat sunny/overcast but DRY wedding day. Wish me luck! Let's see what happens but either way I can't wait. The big day is now less than 6 weeks away!!

Weekender....

Another weekend has come and gone! Here are some pics of what I was up to ... 

Making use of my Friday off work to run some errands.
Rainy but it didn't bother me...

We got our new Kitchen Aid blender and both love it!
We make smoothies almost daily and it's such an upgrade from
the Magic Bullet.

I found my perfect cake stand!

Eating a patacon for the first time...thanks to my brother
who took out the fam for some Venezuelan food :) 

Popped by Avenue and Davenport for some spring flowers. 

I hope you all had an easy Monday back at work. I had a busy but good day and enjoyed my morning walk to work. I'm hoping for no rain tomorrow.

Pick Me Up!


Today it rained all day and I hated it. It was dull and wet outside and my mood was down for most of the day. I got to work late because I was tired from the minute I got up. I also left work early because I just didn't feel well. I hate when the weather affects my mood like this and zaps me of energy. Funny thing is, as soon as I got home and closed the blinds and started cooking I instantly felt better. I also made sure to pick up some fresh flowers at the grocery store to lift my mood. 

What are your go-to pick me ups for rainy days?
