Happy Anniversary!
Wedding Photography – Countdown Day 1
Okay, so I missed a day in there somewhere, but by now you are likely getting sick of the wedding details anyhow. I could not end this countdown without talking about our amazing photographer, Michael, of Michael Jonathan Studios. I have been showing you glimpses of his pictures and while all beautiful shots, my favorites are the ones he took of us, our family and friends. Michael is one of ... Read the Post
Why Everyone Needs a Wedding Planner – Countdown Day 4
Wedding planners are like angels, well good ones are. I can't speak for what can happen if you don't get a good one, but I imagine you could find yourself one of those worst wedding fails lists. Our wedding planner Beth, of Beth Slavin Productions, was one of those angel planners I mentioned.

Invitations – Anniversary Countdown Day 9
There are 9 more days till our anniversary, but today is an anniversary of its own kind. 4 years ago today, my husband and I said hello on JDate! I saw from his username that he was also a "Sam" which piqued my interest - all Sam's are good people, right? Shortly after reading his profile he sent an invite to chat, I believe "Hey there" is how the conversation started, followed by "your dog looks ... Read the Post
