Wedding Moment #3

Going through old baby photos!

Check out some of these beauties:

And now for the best of all...

Sometimes pictures really are worth a 1,000 words.

Wedding Moment #2

And for our next favorite moment...

Getting our marriage license!!

We thought it was appropriate that we obtained our license from the Greece Town Hall, seeing as how we both grew up in the lovely little town. :)

Wedding Moment #1

OK, Ok, a little late, but....here's the first of our favorite wedding moments:

We absolutely LOVED preparing for the wedding with our family and friends!

It was really important to both Wes and I that our wedding was a reflection of us individually and as a couple.  Naturally, a huge part of the both of our lives, are the people we're surrounded by and so we really tried to have our family and friends included in as many preparations as possible.  The fact that we live 6+ hours away made this a bit of a difficult task, but we did our best and were very happy to have shared these special moments leading up to the special day...

 

Our mom's were able to join us at Century Liquor to do some necessary taste testing! 

 

I was lucky enough to have many of the most important ladies in my life join me for the numerous dress fittings.  

*Shout out to Rylyn's luscious locks*

 

I absolutely LOVED getting together with these lovely ladies to work on numerous projects.  Such good sports.  :)

My super-talented sister working away at all the bouquets for the wedding!

 

We prepared the centerpiece mason jars on the Tuesday before the wedding, in the parking lot of ARTISANworks.

 

And who could forget the ultimate beer run experience?!

  When you're engaged, everyone tells you to step aside for a moment during the wedding to take it all in, because after all, the day goes so fast.  Agreed - not once did either of us feel like things were dragging that day.  However, Wes and I can say with confidence, that we're satisfied with our experience and that's because of the special moments we listed above, as well as the countless others not mentioned.  To us, our wedding was so much more than just that one day in November (albeit a pretty fantastic day). Thanks to ALL of our family and friends who gave their time and love to help us prepare for that one day - we hope you'll cherish those memories, as much as we do! 

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year...

TO BE MARRIED! 

First of all, HAPPY HOLIDAYS to our faithful blog readers!  Now that the wedding festivities have come to a close, we have quite a bit more time on our hands for "real life"...so, back to our blog!

Our wedding was so overwhelmingly wonderful that we can't wait to relive it with each of you, through our blog!  Each post over the next couple of weeks will feature 1 moment from our wedding that was particularly special to us.  Our version of the 12 days of Christmas.  :)  Stay tuned!
