Pretty close, right? Now for the big pictures!

Thanks so much for letting me come back and share our wedding! There’s no better way to celebrate than to look back and remember how much fun we had, and all we’ve done this past year. Which, oh, by the way, was this little beauty:

It would be super helpful if these Snapshots included number of guests!!! It is THE budget definer in terms of venue, food, drink….and whether you have to go pro or can DIY many things
