… for do-it-yourself (DIY) backyard weddings
What a ride this last eight months has been. It’s almost sad to see it all end, but so exciting that something new is about to begin. I stood out with my parents on the porch this morning envisioning with them the whole layout for the wedding night. It will be beautiful, full of lights, [...]

These treasures were passed down to me from my Aunt Agnes. She passed away last year at the age of 90. I think she would be happy to see her old pots and pans filled with Marigolds scattered around my yard.
I gave them all holes in the bottom, and put them in beds where they would [...]
Our DJ bailed on us! My mother timidly entered my room a few days ago to give me the news. What he originally told my fiance and I, which I heard very clearly, was that he would love to DJ our wedding. What he told my mother on the phone, and later reiterated to my [...]
