The lovely Mrs. Sand Dollar proposed a series a while back where married bees compile the most basic elements of their weddings into one concise post where members new (and old!) to the hive can get an idea of what a specific bee’s wedding was like without having to sift through lots of recap posts. If you’re planning a wedding similar to any past bee’s, this will give you a chance to connect with older bees that you may not realize are planning similar weddings to your own, all in one swift post!

Stay tuned every Sunday for this new series, kicking off today with my own 2008 wedding! We’ll tag this series “snapshot-sundays,” so you’ll be able to access all the posts in one click! We hope you enjoy reliving our weddings with us!

Aah, so exciting to revisit other oldsters from my own days of planning!! I remember the ring shots with those beautiful flowers, your amazing Goccoed favors, and your cake toppers — not bad for 3 years later!
