From the moment we met, I knew Brian was meant to be in my life. After our first date, I knew he was the man I was going to marry. And here we are, 7 years later, with our first wedding anniversary just days away! You can read our love story to get all the details […]

Your wedding day can be many things, but the one thing it should always be is a personal experience for you and your spouse. There are so many ways to incorporate personal touches throughout your wedding to make it memorable for you as a couple. They don’t need to be big obvious things, just simple touches […]

With our anniversary fast approaching, and watching a lot of our friends get married this year, I can’t help but think back to all the things we learned during our wedding planning journey.  It was such a fun (and stressful) time in our lives, and we learned so much along the way. Here are some […]

Our first anniversary is coming up, so I am getting pretty nostalgic with wedding memories. I wasn’t writing a lot last summer since we were swamped with wedding planning, so I wanted to share some wedding memories with you this month! First on the list is my bridal shower; thrown by my family and Maid […]

A part of me wishes we went on our honeymoon right away. That we had woken up the morning after our wedding, rushed to the airport and flew to a relaxing vacation away from all the stress of life and wedding planning. But after going through it all, I am so glad we waited. Brian […]

Wedding season is officially here! Our first of seven (yes seven) weddings of the year was this past weekend, so I wanted to round up my wedding season essentials for you guys. There are a few tried and true items that I always bring with me to weddings, as well as some new additions to my […]

I have always loved traditions and symbolism, so it’s no surprise that I used both throughout our wedding day. The poem “Something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue,” is something that most brides honor on their wedding day to bring them luck and a happy marriage, so I wanted to share what I had […]

If there is one thing you need to know about me, it’s that I love flowers! So, naturally, I wanted to save my wedding bouquet in some way. I looked into a lot of different ways to preserve bouquets prior to our wedding, but there was one way that I thought was really unique. I found a picture […]

How Brian and I met isn’t a crazy story. It wasn’t a meet cute from a classic movie, or a even a “funny you should ask” kind of a story… But, I love it because I can remember the exact moment we met. Honestly, I can’t say that about anyone else, not even my best friend. I remember […]

When planning our wedding, my husband and I really wanted our ceremony to represent our love and be very personal to us. We wanted to have some sort of unity ceremony, but I didn’t want to do something that we have seen before. After a bit of research, I came across an ancient Celtic tradition, […]

On our one-week anniversary, I thought I would share a bit about our mini-moon to Kohler, WI! As a wedding present to my new hubby, I bought us one night at The American Club. Instead of a physical gift, I decided that we needed a little time to celebrate our marriage since we aren’t going on our […]

With our wedding coming up in less than 3 months (oh my gosh!), I wanted to share a post on my bridesmaids gifts! It took me a while to decide on what to get for my amazing girls, but I decided to stick with something that they could use on our actual wedding day. Here […]
