Don't get me wrong

I loved our photographer, but my favorite shots will always be the ones taken by family.

Lazy Sunday

Homemade Sangria. The smell of clean towels. Rice crackers. Naps. More Sangria.

My favorite day of the week.

Love it.

Ceremony

I rushed down the aisle with giddy anticipation- flailing my arms and giggling along the way. Quiet composure was beyond me. A poem. Tears. Eager vows. Even a stumble or two on our way back up the sand dunes. The Oregon beach never looked so good.

Getting Ready

At the beach house. Nick had the bottom floor. I had the top. Downstairs was a fiesta. Ties were straightened. Last minute pow-wows with the officiant were had. Liquor, chuckles, and even a polish dog or two.

Upstairs I sat anxiously in my cave, wringing my hands and waiting for the big reveal. Wedding blogs don't prepare you for this. Amongst the buzz of hectic day-of preparations, my frantic pleas could be heard echoing down the stairwell.

"Can somebody bring me some whiskey? I need a shot, dammit!"
