From the monthly archives:
Let me start off by saying: our wedding photographer, Jason Fouts, was/is amazing! He’s a friend of ours, and he hasn’t been doing weddings for too long, but you can’t even tell! Here’s a little teaser for all of you, and when I have more time, I’ll be posting more.

I’m married. I’ve been married for almost a week now, actually. Let me begin by saying wow! I’m so glad the stress of wedding planning is over!
The day of the wedding seemed to go by so slowly, until the ceremony. Everything after that went by so quickly, and it’s nothing but a blur to me, honestly. I remember shaking as I walked down the aisle; I also remember not noticing anything (people or decorations– things that I stressed over way too much) until after the ceremony. I was focused on Josh, completely, and the big smile that was on his face. He has this nervous giggle, and I could see that look on his face, and it made my heart melt. Josh never cries, but I could see tears filling his eyes. Happy tears. There were a few minor glitches during the ceremony, but I didn’t even care anymore. The look on Josh’s face and in his eyes made me forget every single thing around me.
After the ceremony, we had pictures taken (which I will post as our photographer gets them to us), and everything became so chaotic. Before, I had wanted to spend every moment at the reception, but once we were married, I just wanted to be alone with Josh (which didn’t happen until later that night, when we went to our hotel suite).
Our honeymoon was so relaxing, and I didn’t want to leave. In fact, we’re thinking about moving to Asheville one day. Possibly. It was just our kind of town. Coffee shops, cafes, beautiful weather, great food and art… Everything was wonderful.
I may post more details later (if you’d like for me to), but for now, I’ll leave you with some of the unprofessional photos that were taken during the day.

I’ll be married in four days. It’s almost unreal; I’m getting so incredibly nervous, yet relieved. I know that once it’s over, I’ll miss the planning and looking forward to what’s to come. However, I feel as if my life is truly beginning. We’re starting fresh, and it’s a good feeling.
I’ve had so much to do lately, so it’s been hard to find the time to write. Even as I’m writing this, I know I may have to cut things short because I have some more shopping to do today for our reception. In the past weeks, I’ve had bridal showers and a bachelorette party; I’ve finalized my flower choices, picked centerpieces (that I’ll be making), got our marriage license, met with our DJ to finalize music choices, met with the preacher for the final time before the wedding, and so many other things that I am forgetting at the moment. Tomorrow is our rehearsal & dinner. We’re having a cookout-pool party dinner, so that should be fun. You can bet that I’ll be loading up on the sunblock so that I won’t have tanlines (or burn lines, in my case) for the big day. Sunday is Father’s Day, and I have family coming up from Florida. Monday will be spent decorating everything, and Tuesday is the wedding. There is so much to do, with so little time, but I feel like it’s all coming out nicely.
In the midst of everything, I did notice that I was featured on Indie Bloggers (who is listed to the left, under my blogroll), and that has brought more readers my way, which is very exciting! Once the wedding is over and we’re back from our honeymoon in Asheville, I’m sure I’ll have much to write about. For now, though, I must go so that I can finish stressing over wedding details!
