2009 Wedding Season Almost Underway!

Wedding season is just around the corner. I am thrilled to be working with some amazing brides this Spring/Summer. My first wedding of the season is June 6th on the Cape. Does anyone know how long I should plan for travel time to get from Arlington to Orleans? This particular wedding will be like a blind date because I've not met the bride and groom yet. It will be awesome, they are going to have lawn games and board games and all kinds of fun! I am so excited to see how it all comes together.

I know you're all clamoring for me to post about my own wedding. So, I will. Our guest list, that including ourselves and our photographer friend fit on two full hands- just ten people. The day turned out in our favor. Planning an outdoor ceremony and reception in the end of October can be a little questionable... but it was warm enough and sunny enough for us to be perfectly happy. My husband's best friend became and officiant for a day and performed the ceremony that I wrote using a lot of tidbits of IndieBride. It was very nice. I cried throughout the whole thing. No, really. I did. Good thing for the water-proof mascara.

Our cake was wonderful, made by Crumpets Bakery in Pepperell. It was light green with beautiful white dots and our little duckie cake toppers! My mom did my bouquet and I made my headpiece. It was really quite an accomplishment since I am not really a DIY kind of a girl. But I was glad I did it, and it turned out beautifully.

I cannot thank my mom enough for all the hardwork she did on our wedding - from flowers to food to sanity. She really went above and beyond. I love her so much and am forever grateful that she was there beside me for my special day.

Well, before I get all misty-eyed, I should go.
Oh- I am on Twitter now too @Meaningfuldtail ... stupid character limit kind of screwed me up. If you'd like to follow me though, I am there :)
