Mariangela & Ryan’s beach brunch vow renewal
This pair are celebrating more than 14 years of happy marriage: they’re also celebrating a big change in faith. They started this new path with a beach-side ceremony and brunch-style potluck. They had singers at the ceremony, a sunny ceremony in a rainy day, and an epic and romantic beach run a la Dudley Moore and Bo Derek.
The wedding proposal blues
Despite the fact that my girlfriend and I have discussed marriage and I know she’s going to say “yes” when I pop the question, there’s still stress. What if she doesn’t like my proposal? What if our families aren’t happy for us? What if I stop worrying about whether or not she “needs” a diamond and realize that the ring is not the important thing?
Kaity & Chuck’s rainbow farm wedding
No hurricane was able to dampen the spirits on this pair’s wedding day. They had their heart set on a farm wedding and made it happen despite Hurricane Isaac’s threats. There were also handmade bridesmaids’ dresses, a mom who saved the day altering the bride’s dress, and last-minute rainbow-decorated barn.
Tie your thank-you note to a tasty caramel apple
Whether you candy your apples, roll them in crushed Oreos, or go for the classic straight-up caramel-enrobed goodness, this great idea is a tasty thank-you. Favors are totally optional, but one scrumptious option is a yummy caramel apple – like this one with the sweet little note.
