The Sweetest Occasion

Hi, friends! I have been having such a lovely evening, trying to catch up on everyone’s adventures during a rare period of relaxation. I’ve also been working on getting photos together so I can share all of my DIY projects with you in greater detail and wondered how you prefer to see DIY posts written [...]

This been over a month in coming, but I’m finally ready to share my new blog with you, a year of marriage. What’s it going to be about? Life, love, our newlywed adventures, and all of the fun that comes with nesting. The twist? My newly minted husband is coming along for the ride and [...]

So, I realize it has been a really really long time since I updated you on my fitness progress. But, with the wedding now a month past, it’s time for me to get back to getting serious. I still have further weight loss and fitness goals I want to hit so I need to keep [...]

The Sweetest Occasion is moving and [...]

One of the things [...]

At long last, I am finally going to share with you our beautiful letterpress wedding invitations from the one and only Bella Figura. When you’re surrounded by incredible letterpress invitations every day (because I work at Bella Figura, for those who do not know) deciding on your own becomes incredibly difficult. After a couple of [...]

Ok. Seriously. I always knew fabulous photography was a must for our wedding, but I am so so happy I decided top notch videography was also a necessity. I can’t seem to get it to upload in blogger, so you’re going to have to go here, witness the reason I can’t stop smiling and come [...]
