16 Patriotic Decorating Ideas and Recipes

On this day, 9 Years Ago, I married my best friend. We were married in beautiful Riviera Maya, Mexico, in a gazebo overlooking the ocean. It was just the two of us. It was a second marriage for both of us. We had only been dating for 10 months, but I knew much sooner than that that I would spend my life with him. I knew this was the person that I was going to grow old with, and we were never going to run out of things to talk about. And 9 years later, we are still talking. Marrying him was the best decision I ever made. Funny story about our wedding day- Right before I left my hotel to go to the wedding location, I was so nervous I was shaking, so I took a big shot of whiskey. After the wedding was over, I confessed this to LC, and he told me he had done the same exact thing! Cheers to my husband for 9 wonderful years, and I’m hoping for many more. Thanks LC, for making these past 9 years the best ones of my life so far!

So onto our regularly scheduled post for today! Seeing that we are just a tad over a week away from the 4th of July holiday, I thought I would bring you some Patriotic inspiration. So here are 16 patriotic decorating ideas and recipes. Enjoy!

I have created a Patriotic Food and Décor Pinterest Board that has loads of more inspiration for you to enjoy as well, so I do hope you will go and check it out! I think I am going to make some of that sangria for a party we are going to on July 4th. And probably one of the dessert recipes too!

Have a great weekend!
