Hey everyone! Well, I am pooped today! I have had such a busy and fun weekend so far. After my las post, I hung around the house a little before getting dolled up and heading to Wendy and Charlie’s Wedding! I was a FANTASTIC wedding and we had a great time. The bride was STUNNING and oh so happy! Isn’t it great to see a close friend so happy?!
The ceremony was great, the church was packed! There were hundreds of people there to witness Wendy and Charlie exchange their vows. After the ceremony, we headed to the reception. During the cocktail hour, I snacked on some crackers, cheese and fruit. I got a few pieces of spicy cheese, yum 
The drink of the night was vodka and cranberry juice, I was not in a beer mood. Shocking, I know.
During the cocktail hour, I chatted with some co-workers. It was so fun seeing everyone all dolled up. Don’t you LOVE the color of Carol’s dress! That blue looks stunning on her
The food was INCREDIBLE! It was hands down the BEST FOOD I have ever had at a wedding! There was tons and tons of food too, I thought I was going to have to be rolled out of there.
Course 1 was Italian Wedding Soup. It was sooo delicious!
Course 2 was ziti. The sauce was so delicious! I loved it.
Course 3 was salad.
By the time the main course came, I was stuffed! It was baked stuffed shrimp, steak ,veggies and a twice baked potato. I ate all the veggies, the shrimp and a few bites of the potato. I could not fit another thing in my belly.
This was the cake, beautiful. I actually didn’t have any because I literally could not fit it. I was so full by the time it was served.
After eating, I danced the night away. I had to work off all that food!!!!! Here are a few pictures from the night.
Work people!!!
A sweet kiss!!!
The happy couple! They are so fun, and easy on the eyes too 
I could not be more happy for them!
Myself and the beautiful bride!
One of the highlights of my night was meeting Debbie! Debbie came up to me in the ladies room and and asked, “Are you Ali?”, I said “Yes?”. She is a blog reader!!! I love meeting readers in person Debbie was super sweet and said how excited she was to meet me in person, I was just as excited to meet her!!!! Debbie and I danced the night away! HI DEBBIE (waving)!
This picture would have been so cute, if there wasn’t something on my lens causing those spots! Weird! This is probably the best outfit shot I have from the night. I am wearing a black Ann Taylor Loft dress and red satin shoes. I love the neckline of the dress.
We had such a great time at the wedding, but were were exhausted when we got home and went right to bed. I think it was all the dancing Adam and I were like little dance machines!
This morning I woke up craving a bagel with cream cheese. I haven’t had one in so long, we are talking over a year here! Adam popped into out local coffee shop and got me a whole wheat bagel with light cream cheese and a coffee. Did I mention I love this man?!
Well, I got a few things to do around the house. I am so excited about the USA Hockey game today at 3pm. I hope they get the gold! GO USA!!!! See you all a little bit later!

The bride was absolutely gorgeous! The food looked great, but I can’t believe you couldn’t have any cake! haha, I always save room for dessert and wedding cake is one of my favs!
that bagel looks delicious! I’m going away tomorrow for three days to north conway, at first I thought ” oh damn it, I am prob going to eat so unhealthy and feel gross when I get back” but then I thought screw that, I can still have fun, eat well, and feel great no matter where I am or what is going on…your blog has really helped me to realize that. thanks for all the inspiration
Wendy looks so pretty!!! Congrats!
So clever and appropriate to serve Italian wedding soup as the first course!
Looks like a beautiful wedding!

2 posts in a row w/ photos of you looking gorgeous! Love love love your dress choices for the retirement party and the wedding. (Congrats to your coworker!) Your hair looks so cute curled with the straightener. I’ve been practicing on mine.
hi Ali,
Is your spray-on tan still strong? I’m contemplating getting one for an event I have coming up and was wondering how long your has lasted. Thanks!
No, my spray tan faded out by tuesday. I think it lasted about 6 days.
Hey Ali!!
How are you?? It seems like you’re doing great! I love your blog. I love waking up and reading it while I drink my coffee before school. I’m still in Italy…where I definitely find it hard to control my portions…but your blog motivates me to enjoy all the good things in moderation.
Hope you have a great day and say hi to Adam for me!
I’m famous!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m blogged on THE best blog in the whole world. Thanks, lady! =)
