Stanley always says that as soon as the 4th of July comes around, the year is over.  I always say he’s being dramatic.  This year, his words couldn’t have been more true!  It seems like the past 6 months have been quicker than ever!  Looking back at my (lack of) blog posts, I’m making a New Years resolution to be better about that for 2019!

We had an extremely busy year both in and out of our business.  We completed multiple home improvement projects to make our house even more of a home, we worked with the amazing Darryon from “From the Daughter” to update our website, brand, and blog, and shot amazing weddings with the best couples.  We have definitely been blessed!

Even though I didn’t blog as much as I would’ve liked to towards the end of 2018, I love to share the photos that we take with our brides and grooms!  This year, we weren’t able to get selfies with every couple just because sometimes the day is just too hectic, but we love all of our couples regardless of if we got a picture or not!

We also love to share some behind-the-scenes photos of Stanley and I throughout the year.  We always find ourselves taking photos of each other, knowing that later in the year, we will look back and laugh!  We hope you enjoy them as much as we do.

Thank you to all of our 2018 brides and grooms who invited us into your wedding experience!  We feel blessed and honored to have shared in one of the most special days of your lives!  Here’s to many more beautiful weddings in 2019 and the years to come!
