Well, we moved…sort of! There are a million things to do, and I am in the city still, but all of our belongings are in our amazing new house! I can’t wait to organize and decorate and make it our home! Both Mom’s and Dad’s… we couldn’t have done it without you. And to all of our friends, we love you guys so much, especially for waking up on Saturday and helping instead of sleeping in. Here are some pictures from our last date in Williamsburg at Motorino, and Rondo being Rondo.

Party & Purchase

June 26, 20132 Comments

Well, it’s official…we are home owners! After a long, difficult, and trying journey to own our new home we finally closed!

We had a going away party Saturday morning on our roof with a bunch of friends and had a really amazing time getting to see everyone. No words can express what all of you mean to Jay and I…we are going to miss you all so much. Part of our hearts will always be in Brooklyn. I can’t believe it is all coming to a close, I really can’t. But this next chapter is going to be incredibly exciting. There will be a lot of changes, and I’m sure some tough days, but I think we are ready for this big move. Thank you all for your love and friendships…now everyone come visit!

Engagement photos (part ii)

June 14, 20133 Comments

Julie just posted the second half of our engagement photos, and I’m in love with them! These were taken on the Brooklyn Bridge, and though we look happy and lovely in them it was quite an adventure. It was over 90 degrees, the balloons were the bane of Julie’s existence, and no one had eaten. Silly problems I know, but not ideal for when you are supposed to look insanely happy to be together (ha!). Here are some of the photos, the rest you can see at Julie’s full site here.

I can’t wait to frame all of these all over our house! Julie, you are amazing, thank you thank you thank you! You can see our first set of pics here if you missed them!

Gov Ball

This weekend was Governors Ball! We had a great time seeing amazing performances all weekend…we did have to do it covered in mud, dirt, rain, and more mud, but it was fantastic! We are suffering trying to stay awake at work today! We got to see so many of our favorites (yeasayer, bloc party, kanye (!), lumineers, alt-j…so many others). A great way to spend a weekend with friends and family. N & S, so happy you came out and stayed. S you are a trooper!

Here are a few fun ones from the muck…

I couldn’t be more thrilled to share with you the first set of our engagement pictures! Julie shot these throughout our neighborhood and we couldn’t be more in love with them. You can check our her full site here and blog here.

There are more on her site and more to come from other locations. I feel so lucky to have Julie not only as my future family, but to know such a talented photographer! Thank you again Jules for doing these, we never would have without you!

what a weekend

June 3, 2013June 3, 20132 Comments

This was a wild weekend!

Friday night was my best Bug baby’s birthday! We even got a surprise burlesque show out of it…who knew that was coming?!

Then after a late late night, we did our engagement pictures with Julie all day! I can’t wait to see them all!! Check out her amazing photography here. She did send me one and without ruining her getting to share her work here is one…

After the long, hot, hot, hot, day of picture taking, we were off to dinner at 1 or 8 and out with friends for another late night.

Sunday, I got up and met Mom for some shopping in between Brooklyn and Flemington…little did I know we would end up finding my wedding dress!!!!!! I wish I could share pictures of it…it’s beyond perfect and I’m obsessed. Mom (Dad too) thank you so much…so much. I wish I could wear it everyday!

Here are some other pics from last week…

(my mug from england and amazing tea from pukka)

(he has always loved this chair, but lately it is the main place i find him…weirdo).

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!

Trip Video

May 28, 2013Leave a comment

Yesterday we both tried to relax after our wonderful trip and get back to stasis. Our bodies are so confused about when to be hungry and tired (is lunch at 7am now?!). We really did have a fantastic time (despite some manic moments stuck on the wrong side of the road…literally). Thank you so much R&P for taking us all the way across the Atlantic! I am so looking forward to having you as my family.

I can promise you within the next week I will annoy you with thousands of pictures, but for right now here is a quick video I put together yesterday!

9 years

If there is one thing wedding planning makes you think about it is friends….between invites, the bridal party, bachelor(ette) parties, and every step in between, you are consumed with thoughts of who will be around you. Point being, I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how lucky I am to have had these (below) absolute crazies in my life for the past 9 years! Yea, that’s right girls, we met in 2004! AH!

I was looking through old pictures and couldn’t help but share. Thank God we all look different than we did (I mean for real with the outfits, what were we thinking?!), but more importantly I’m so thankful to still have your friendships. Girls…we have had so much fun in the past and there’s so so so much more fun to come! Now let’s enjoy a little walk through the hell that was early college outfits and hair…
