That’s right…we did it!  We’re married!

The day was nothing short of amazing!  No major hiccups or issues…everything was beyond perfect!!  The weather, the crazy dance party, the food…yep it was all fabulous!!

All photos via our amazing photographer Khara at Kabloom Studios…you can see a TON more pics from our day right here.

More to come…once I get down from the wedded-bliss …

I never actually planned on having a wedding poster…it just kind of happened…here’s how it all went down.

Back toward the end of September I won a free poster size print from a blog giveaway!!!  (hooray for winning!!)  When I got the email with the info on how to redeem this free print…I noticed I only had ONE MONTH to come …

ack!  So I’m sorry for being MIA lately…I have good reasons…some of which I’ll share with you all very soon!  But I just COULD NOT WAIT to show you some of our Love Shoot pics!!  Khara is pretty much awesome and a half…and well…we’re kinda cute too :)

LOVE this black and white one…

We have had our rehearsal dinner venue booked since February….our wedding is next June…16 months in advance if you do the math.  In fact…I had it booked probably a week or two after we officially booked our ceremony/reception site.  You wanna know why??  Well when this girl knows what she wants….she KNOWS what she wants….and I just so happen to …

As I mentioned before, our engagement pics are coming up!  Needless to say I’ve been spending lots of time recently searching some of my favorite photographer’s blogs for inspiration.  Now I am definitely not planning on handing my photographer a list of “must have shots” or poses….I 100% believe that you hire a photographer for their artistic talent of “seeing” …

ok picking up from where we left off…

I was pretty bummed after finding out several venues were already booked for the “date” we had our hearts set on…so when I made the call to Country Pines I was expecting the worse.  No one answered…so I left a message explaining that I was interested in renting the facility for our ceremony/reception …

Much like finding our photographer, searching for and finding our venue took place mostly via the internet.

Up until this point (Feb 09) I hadn’t put much thought into where we would actually get married.  I know some people are set on getting married in a church…and although my home church would have been fine…my hometown is small-ish so the hotel/food/entertainment …

So I may have lied a tiny bit in my last post…yes I WAS rushing to book our venue…but long before that search began I had one of our vendors pretty much decided on…our photographer.

I’ve inserted lots of lovely eye candy from Khara’s blog throughout this post…so if you could really care less about my blabbing feel free to scroll …
