Love by the Bay: The End of a Journey

Love by the Bay: The End of a Journey

January 26th, 2010 @ 8:14 am by Mrs. Peep Toe

What to say, what to say.

I’ve been on this wedding blogging journey for well over a year now. My goal was to finish this adventure in a year, but alas, my heart wouldn’t let me finish my recaps. So I set my goal to finish by Feb 2010.

I’ve been married for almost eight months and I’ve shared my ups, my downs and a lot of the in between with the hive. I’ve loved it. Each. And. Every. Second.

But I kinda, sort of, maybe lied to you. I didn’t blog about our entire wedding day.

I’ve left one part for the end, but here we are.

At the end.

So it’s time….

The sun had finally gone down on our wedding day. The lights had begun to flicker to guide the way. So our fabulous photographer (I really can’t recommend her enough), grabbed us and said it was time to leave the hotel:

0940

While it pained me to leave the party just as it was getting started, these pictures alone make the whole day worth it.

1330

So a toast to you.

bw-1316

For those just starting the wedding journey—may your days be full of wedding splendor.

1319

For those of you on the verge of getting married—may your day be perfectly yours.

1336

And for those who have already tied the knot—may your days get sweeter and your love grow deeper.

130901

So that’s it, the end of the Peeps’ wedding journey.

131101

Sorry for the sappy goodbye, and I promise that I’ll still be poking around the hive. Feel free to follow me on twitter at @mrspeeptoe or follow my new blog about Modern Organic Living. I’m still working on finding my voice, but maybe with a little support from you, I’ll keep the blog train rolling. Thank you to my fellow bees and readers; may there always be more love in the world to celebrate.

And just in case you missed anything:

Wow. Amazing post, Mrs. Peep! This makes me both happy and sad. We became Bees around the same time, and I always looked to you for fresh inspiration and perspective; not to mention, your re-caps made me want to move to San Francisco! You are one of my very favorite bees. My best to you and Mr. Peep as you continue your newlywed adventures I will definitely follow you on your personal blog. xo

I totally looked into the Hotel Vitale for our wedding!!!! How fabulous! I love the photos, it was totally what I looked forward to about a possible wedding in the City. Ours will still be fabulous, but I love the photos with the Bay Bridge in the background.
