We're back and officially married! A million thanks to our family and friends for helping us transition as newlyweds. We can't thank you enough! My word of advice for newly engaged couples is to BOOK EVERYTHING EARLY, because if you do this then you will always get your first choice. Also, have an idea of what you want and stick with it. It's amazing how many people will try to talk … [Read more...]

A bouquet isn't exactly easy on the wallet, so by drying them I've managed to salvage every rose that Joseph has ever bought me. Hopefully … [Read more...]

We have many people to thank for making our night so memorable, in particular to Jeff and his team at Splendido; you certainly worked your magic. :D Wedding proposal aside, the … [Read more...]
