Wedding Blog

OMG, I am so excited to be the newest addition to the hive!! I can’t wait to travel this road with y’all in the passenger seat! I knew I wanted to be a blogger for Weddingbee the minute I logged in.

I’m a registered nurse from the Deep South. Raised in Mobile, Alabama, I’m especially fond of the beach. I moved to Georgia just over a year ago and met my soul mate shortly thereafter.

I’m a total foodie with a love for all (ok, almost all) veggies, sushi, traditional southern fare, and, of course, seafood. Crab Cake was the perfect moniker for me - it pays homage to my home town, my way of life, and one of my favorite foods.

I’m obsessed with all things crafty, but especially knitting, sewing, and quilting. I’ve committed myself to way too many DIY projects for the wedding, but that’s ok with me.

Last but definitely not least, I’m a mom. I have a 4 year old daughter who definitely tries my patience. But she’s beautiful and amazing and I wouldn’t trade her for anything.

Mr. Crab Cake and I met under very strange circumstances. How, you say? Well, I was in Savannah with my mom just because. Mum Crab Cake and I went on a haunted pub crawl and had the pleasure of touring some of the most haunted spots in Savannah while getting our drink on. We stopped at the Moon River Brewing Co. for a cold one, and I struck up a conversation with a cutie at the bar who I assumed was a local and would know the selections by heart. Turns out my local was a Columbus boy visiting Savannah for a friend’s birthday. Once we figured out we lived in the same town, we exchanged email addresses. Emails led to phone conversations and then to our first date.

Mr. Crab Cake and I are planning a big (non)traditional Catholic wedding on a little tiny budget. We have a great venue and have scored some amazing vendors through lots of research and patience. I’m super excited about getting to share our big day with y’all!
