Even when you have the best intentions for spending meaningful, quality time with your spouse, let’s be honest: after a long day of work, it can be all too easy/tempting to crash on the couch and scroll through Instagram or turn on the TV. While neither of those things is bad from time to time, they don’t quite do your relationship any favors. In the Marriage Planning section of the Southern Weddings Planner, we included a box to brainstorm tech-free weeknight activities for y’all to do together, but in case you’re stumped, here are a few ideas to get you started–and best of all, they’re all are just as, or close to, as easy as a Netflix marathon!

What ideas would you add to this list? We’d love to hear!

Packing for your honeymoon does not always mean bathing suits and sundresses. Brandon and I went to France (in December!) for our honeymoon, so we were actually packing the opposite: jackets and boots! If you’re planning a honeymoon this fall to a locale filled with cool, crip air, and you’re not sure what to pack, I’ve got you covered. Think simple pieces that can easily be layered as the evenings get chillier, and mix and matched to create extra outfits, depending on the length of your vacation. Pairing a cute dress with tights and the same booties you wore with skinny jeans and a warm sweater for exploring the town will help both your suitcase and your wallet!

I like to plan ahead, but I know that it can be challenging to find adorable and affordable fall pieces during the summer. Fellow bargain shoppers rejoice, I am here to help with some really great deals from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and some of our other favorite places! This way, you can save your pennies and use that extra bit in your budget for a special dinner on your honeymoon.

Travel tip: always wear your boots and heaviest sweater/coat on the plane. Not only are planes usually quite chilly, but you’ll save on luggage space! Don’t forget an expandable tote, makeup palette perfect for taking you from day to night, and heavy moisturizer to protect against extra dry air.

Whether you’re sticking close to home or traveling to the beach (or mountains!) this weekend, we hope you have a chance to gather with friends and family, eat some delicious Southern fixin’s, and snuggle up after dark to watch some fireworks! The Southern Weddings gals are headed out to do all those things and more, but we’re leaving you with our team’s summer picnic inspiration from a few years ago. For all of the details and tips for hosting a summer potluck, be sure to check out the original post!

Thanks to Blue Ribbon Vendor Graham Terhune for these lovely photos!

What are your Fourth of July plans? We’d love to hear!
