Lucky in Love

June 26, a very special day indeed.  Its the day Matt and I said “I do,” the day we danced the night away with friends and family, and the day Matt and I began our life together.  I remember my dad saying at our wedding, “Tonight is a celebration, and a chance to share this occasion with all your friends and family.  But tomorrow, the tuxes will go back, your dress will be put in a box, and friends and family will return home.  Tomorrow your life together begins, tomorrow you start a new journey.”  He was so right.  Our wedding was insanely fabulous and beyond what I’d always dreamed (thank you Mom and Dad!), but our life together is even better!

Thank you Matt for sharing this life with me.  I am so blessed to have such a supportive, hilarious, and loving partner by my side.  Happy Anniversary, love!

This Time A Year Ago…

This weekend is one of celebration at our house as Matt and I are celebrating our one year anniversary tomorrow!  Its crazy how fast time flies.  It feels like only a few months ago that we said “I do” surrounded by so many wonderful friends and family.  So today, I am remembering this time a year ago, when we were preparing for the big day, gathering at the church, and sharing good stories with friends and family at the rehearsal dinner.  And luckily, I have some fabulous pictures to remember this day.  I’m sure I’ll post a ton of wedding pictures tomorrow (I mean, who doesn’t love wedding pictures?) but today, I’m posting some of my favorites from our rehearsal/rehearsal dinner.  And by “some” I mean a lot, so if wedding pictures aren’t your thing, you may want to come back and visit the blog on Monday :)

It feels like this night was yesterday :)  We were, and still are, so very blessed to be surrounded by such fabulous people who love and support us.  I’m sure I’ll post 940 wedding pictures tomorrow, but until then, I’ll be smiling thinking back to about how fun and joyful this weekend a year ago was :)

*All of our wedding photography was done by Rachel Robinson.  She is incredible and if you are in or near Texas, she is totally amazing and worth looking into if you have any kind of event or family photos in the near future!  You can check out more of her work here.
