The State of the Blog

Since the wedding has come and gone, I have received a lot of questions about "what will happen to your blog now?" I also received a lot of inquiries about "what happened to your other blog... Life at 2365?" Well, I deleted that blog awhile back in preparation for what I would need to do post-wedding, which is to combine my two blogs. I'm thinking something like "Preppy Bride at 2365." But I will not be getting a new link or a new blog, all new stuff will go on this blog. I feel like you put so much effort into establishing yourself with a "name" in the blog world that I don't want to do that all over again now! I know that many of you began reading because you were also planning your wedding and now that mine is over I hope that you will stick around and see how things go after the wedding! Everyone knows that our wedding was extremely DIY-heavy and I am definitely like this in my day-to-day life so I hope that I can share some more of my projects with you. I am excited about this blog not being so wedding-centric anymore because it will allow me to blog more often, if you don't mind my extreme randomness.

So in the meantime I am working on a major overhaul because I'm sick of looking at this same blog layout that has been around for over a year! I am going to attempt to spruce up my layout on my own but I may have to enlist the help of a blog designer (recommendations would be GREAT!!).

Last thing.. several people have asked about a honeymoon post. I actually blogged about the honeymoon before I got to the wedding recaps. I know, it seems like the wedding recaps went on for 75 years. So if you are interested in the honeymoon pics, go here and here.

Our Wedding Day: The Bride & Groom (last recap!)

Today is my very last wedding recap post! I thought it was fitting for my last recap post to be pictures of the new Mr. and Mrs.! Thanks for letting me share all of the recaps of our big day!

Our Weddng Day: Wedding Party Favorites

Today I am sharing a few of our favorite wedding party pictures. We have sooo many pictures that it is hard to narrow them down, but here are some of the best ones! The last two... of the ring bearer and flower girls... may be two of my favorite pictures ever! Enjoy the pictures!

Our Wedding Day: Bride & Groom Portraits

Only a few posts left of the wedding recap and I must say, I am a little excited about getting back to regular blogging! The last few posts are from the posed pictures by the photographer. Today, some of the bride and groom individual portraits. Enjoy the pictures!

Our Wedding Day: The Toasts

I hadn't originally planned on doing an entire post on our Matron of Honor and Best Man toasts but I thought that we got some really cute pictures and I had to share. Both of their toasts were very, very funny as well as thoughtful and sweet. Enjoy the pictures!

Our Wedding Day: Reception Entrance & First Dance

Sorry about the little posting delay... it was a crazy (bad) week here last week and I didn't have a chance! Here are some pictures from our reception entrance, a couple of our favorite wedding party entrances our and first dance. Our wedding party entrance song was Jimi Boys...a Dave Matthews Band and Jay-Z remix that was kind of a joke intended for our best man and matron of honor... he loves Jay-Z, she loves Dave. Everyone loved it. And our first dance song was Nothing Fancy by Dave Barnes. It has always been "our song" and I cry every time I hear it! Enjoy the pictures!

Our Wedding Day: Reception DIY Details

I thought it would be fun to show some of our DIY projects "in action" at the reception! Many of you have been with my blog for the long haul and have seen the creation of so many of these items so I thought you might like to see them on the big day. Enjoy the pictures!
