Thank you Style Me Pretty for asking me to give some wedding advice for their Best of Weddings 2011 magazine. See me there, sharing pearls of wisdom alongside Cup o’ Jo? Fancy Fancy! And if somehow you missed Style Me Pretty’s original coverage of our wedding, they featured our welcome party, wedding, and after party [...]
Or giving it. As one astute commenter mentioned yesterday, for your one year anniversary you are supposed to exchange gifts of paper. So in answer to your question, EBR, yes we did exchange gifts! Every year for our birthdays and anniversaries Pete and I write each other notes that we save in a book, it [...]
So this was what I wanted to post on Monday…sorry to be redundant but I wanted to share! Our anniversary was fantastic, thank you very much. Pete called the restuarant that catered our wedding, The Little Nell, and had them recreate the meal we served at our wedding. They even made us a special floral [...]
