Hey… I’m married! So that’s pretty exciting. The whole week and weekend went by so fast, from people getting into town on Wednesday all the way through saying goodbye to Eric’s parents last night. I’m going to wait to share all of the details until I get our photos back. But in the meantime, I thought I’d record some reflections just to tuck away for the future.… Read More »
My Tea Party Bridal Shower
My tea party bridal shower this past Saturday was amazing. The food, the decorations, the games–the hostesses (my mom and her best friend, Ms. T) really knocked it out of the park! The shower theme was an intimate afternoon tea. We wound up with ten guests which was just the right size. Enough that a good number of my favorite ladies were there, but few enough that my introverted self was perfectly relaxed!… Read More »
Wedding Update: 2 Months to Go!
The big day is under eight weeks away, so here’s my last wedding planning update! (Here are my one year out update and 4.5 months out update if you’re curious.) We did a lot to prepare this past weekend and I’m feeling good about it, so now seemed like a good time to write a post :)… Read More »
Wedding Update: 4.5 Months to Go!
Oh… hi! I’m, uh, back? And want to write about wedding stuff even though I said I didn’t want to do that anymore? I realized that I really enjoyed writing about our planning process and missed it so I wanted to drop in with an update. I also scrubbed my old wedding posts of names and made them public again, so there’s that. If you want to read freely about how E and I met, how we found my engagement ring, my wedding dress shopping or anything else, you can do that now 🙂
So, I can’t tell you much yet, but this time next month, life is going to look a lot different. We’re making a huge life change just four months out from our wedding. I’m over-the-moon excited, nervous, and pretty stressed out about it, all at the same time. There’s so much work to do! (For the record, I AM NOT PREGNANT. No, no, no, heck no. No buns in the oven for a few years, sorry!) I can’t wait to let you in on the secret, but that will have to wait for a couple of weeks from now.
I’ve always have a hard time blogging when there’s a big part of my life that I have to hold back. It feels as though I’m being dishonest, almost? But that’s silly–this is my blog, not my journal. Long story short: wedding stuff!… Read More »
Our Engagement Photos
We received our engagement photos earlier this week! And as you probably know if you’re friends with me on Facebook or follow me on Instagram, I absolutely love them.
E and I aren’t naturally pose-y people and don’t take a lot of pictures together, but our photographer made us feel incredibly comfortable. She was so encouraging and enthusiastic about the scenery, the weather, and pretty much everything! I can’t wait to have her (and a second shooter from the same studio) take pictures on our wedding day.… Read More »
