Its wedding season! And for many of this give us a reason to dress up, go out with friends or family that are celebrating their big day and enjoy it with them. Often it is a chance to see family again that you haven't seen in years.
Weddings...that simple word evokes so many different emotions to different people. It means marriage, dancing, commitment, socializing, settling down, drinking, a family, friends and of course love...To me, weddings are about two people coming together as one with all the support of their family and friends. I think no wedding should ever be generic. It should always reflect the bride and grooms past, present and future.
For example when my friends were married two July's ago they served pie instead of cake because they were making pie together when they realized they liked each other. They are outdoor people which is hobby that I shared with them and for their wedding they had their wedding in the Adirondacks. It was a gorgeous wedding and it really spoke to their adorable relationship. They are very close friends of mine and I was honored to be part of their big day! (Side-note: These two are beaming of love and joy. They make the most amazing couple and being around them puts you in such a good mood! I wish them all the best for the rest of their life!) I do have pictures but will only share them with their permission.
I really believe that these small little touches are what makes a wedding your own. I really feel like a personalize wedding really pulls the guests into a couples relationship and makes the whole celebration mean that much more. I may not be married myself but I can't help but assist in planning and enjoy my friends weddings. :)
Weddings always bodes well for good times between good drinks, good food and good music.
My favorite things about weddings:
-The look of the Groom when he sees the bride coming down the isle one of my favorite sites and videos Sandbox Love shows this in gorgeous videography.
-The adorable little flower girl and ring bearer.
-The first kiss.
-The first dance.
-Toasts that open little windows into the cute secrets that the bride and groom share.
-Father-Daughter dance.
-Seeing everyone that doesn't know each other or get along having good times as one.
-All the dancing!!!
In case you haven't figured it out I am a little wedding crazy! I have many many wedding magazines tucked away on my kindle, Martha being my favorite of course.
Luckily my amazing man thinks its cute and not terrifying. He says "I like it. It means you are a planner and when/if the day comes I won't have to worry about a thing!". I think he's a keeper because I wouldn't want a guy to steal my chance to be completely creative! :) <3
