How my dead cat helped me propose to my boyfriend
When Eric and I started dating I told him I didn’t think much of marriage and I didn’t know if I wanted to have kids. I felt like marriage ends in divorce about half the time, and kids infringe on your freedom. Why willingly subject yourself to that stuff? But seeing how much he was there for me during one of the harder times of my life made me trust him so completely. I began to think if he has this much patience and concern for a cat that isn’t even his responsibility to take care of, imagine how dedicated and loving he will be to our family.

A sunny picnic wedding with lawn games and love
[vendor-heart link="http://vendors.offbeatwed.com/listing/carly-bish-photography"]Carly Bish[/vendor-heart] sent over this stunning, sun-soaked picnic wedding and we ate it up. But when we found out that it was held at her childhood home, we knew it was really special to her. See, Carly’s brother married Kristin. Kristin’s sister, Chaitra (the bride), met and married one of Carly’s brother’s best friends since childhood, Ryan (the groom). So their meeting (and loving) was inevitable. Sweet story aside, let’s get on to the deets: lots of DIY decor, handmade fascinators, picnic blankets as reception tables, lawn games, ribbon wands (perfect for the nearby kitteh)… it’s your own virtual vacation.
