I'm BACK and MARRIED!!!`


Well we did it!!!! May 14th was TRULY the best night of my life!!! The wedding was spectacular and exceeded my expectations! All the hard work paid off and at the end of the day I'm married to my best friend!
The whole week was amazing. It all started Wednesday night with what I thought would be a low key bachelor/bachelorette party.......whoa....I was WAY off on that account!! Let's just say that Zach earned his future husband points that night!
I woke up a ball of nerves on Friday....sick to my stomach nervous. I have no idea why? I had been doing great up until that morning. I'm sure it was a combination of emotions and stress. I think I checked the weather report ever 10 minutes the 10 days prior to the wedding and every day the forecast got worse and worse...rain, thundershowers, hail, strong winds! I was a mess! We woke up Friday to beautiful blue skies and 85 degrees. I kept telling everyone that I only needed good weather from 4-7pm for pictures, ceremony and cocktails. Low and behold it was gorgeous up until 7:10 and then when everyone got inside to be seated for dinner the skies opened up and it poured! Someone was seriously looking out for us and a ton of prayers went answered!
The food was excellent and we danced the night away! It truly was a night to remember and I enjoyed every minute of it! I've heard of so many brides that say the day passes so quickly and is such a whirlwind, however I made an effort to remember every moment! And I think the reason I was able to do it is because we only had 75 guests. My advice for all newly engaged couples out there is to keep it small if possible! We were able to enjoy each and every guest and it made the day all the more magical! They came from all over and Zach and I are incredibly grateful and lucky!
Italy was incredible and there will be stories and pictures of that to come.
