Bridesmaids Diaries: Things To Do When Your Friends Just Get Engaged

So these aren't any super amazing tips or anything... but it might be something helpful and nice! You know this is going to be a great blog when I'm like "So these tips aren't super amazing" lol. There isn't a lot out there for when people just get engaged... and a lot of people don't have engagement parties or anything anymore... not sure if my friend is having one or not, she just happened to throw a party a day or 2 after she got engaged... so I wanted to do a few things.

First I was going to do this anyway... but I got her some fancy chocolates. These are a good gift for hosting parties, and I thought it would be something fun and a little different. Champagne is sort of the traditional gift... I thought somebody probably got them champagne already... so they might want some chocolates.

I also got an engagement cards... there were not many of these at the Hallmark store... so these might kind of be hard to find. There might be a blank inside type of card or stationary you could use... I got everyone at the party to sign the card because I thought that would be nice. Especially since there were so few engagement cards, it made sense to just have one for everyone. It was cute. It made them smile... so yeah.

And if you can offer any suggestions. If you've gotten married or if you were in a wedding and you can recommend a few things, that would probably be a great help. We were talking about venues and I knew of a restaurant that I thought they probably knew about too and I just said "ohh this place also has a wedding venue and it looked like people were having fun there. So yeah. Any little tips that you can tell them are helpful.

So yeah... that's pretty much it! Hope you guys liked this!

Byeee!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de...

Top 10 Dating Tips/ Suggestions

So I've been in a relationship for about 2 and a half years... but before that I was single... for a very long time. And I was on dating apps for about a year or so before that... so here's what I learned from those apps. If you want more specific relationship advice I have from being in a relationship... that one might be a little harder but I guess I could do a blog on that too? Idk... I'm not an expert but I think I have some good tips.  Find an App That Works For You  I feel like not all apps work for everyone. I started on Bumble- and I like the app. I love the idea of girls taking the first move- but... I HATE making the first move apparently. So I would just match with a bunch of guys... and never really knew what to talk about. Plus I like having A LOT of info in my bio and Bumble just doesn't give enough space for me. I only went out with 1 guy from Bumble I think and it was bad.  So after that I tried Coffee Meets Bagel... which is terrible. Maybe depending on...
