Two years ago today, surrounded by towering trees and friends, I started a life with THE most amazing, loyal, romantic, sweet and handsome man alive. We celebrated our anniversary this year with a couple's massage that was AMAZING and then a nice, fancy dinner. We finished the night with frozen yogurt and a relaxing stroll around Charlotte, while we reminisced about our love story and our dreams for the future. It felt SO wonderful to be able to be my crazy self, acting silly and twirling around on fountain ledges, trying to catch Samuel's eye in that flirty way. Oh how I enjoyed every moment of our anniversary celebration date! (Last year, I felt like I was a walking piece of tenderized meat, still recovering from Káel's birth.) What a difference a year makes!
I love you Samuel Gatlyn, you are my dream love.

ReplyDeleteWhat a GORGEOUS wedding! I absolutely loved that you guys chose to do teh washing of each others feet during your ceremony. So meaningful. congrats
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary to the both of you! You had an absolutely beautiful wedding..
ReplyDeleteAs I was reading your blogs it seems like you and your family are pretty lad back. I think that is great. I was wondering if you have ever heard of a company called SallyeAnder Soaps. They make an all natural handmade soap that does not include chemicals or toxins making it safe for babies. And with a new born in your family that is important. My wife and I have been using their soaps for almost 3 years now after our neighbor recommended their soaps to us. Here is their website if you wanted to check them out. www.sallyeander.com. Their Calendula & Chamomile Shampoo Bar is amazing especially for craddle cap with babies.
ReplyDeleteyou are my favorite.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your anniversary! I loved watching your wedding video! So special - thanks for sharing!

ReplyDeleteoh man, i remember watching this (over and over) shortly after I got engaged and dreaming of having a wedding like yours. That's been two years ago! woah. I will also admit that I watched every other video on the youtube channel, might I add SWEETEST proposal ever! :)
ReplyDeleteWe washed each others feet in our wedding because i saw it in yours and loved the meaning behind it. Our wedding video is almost done and it is killing me that I can't watch it yet.
Congratulations to such a beautiful couple!

Congratulations! May happiness and bliss follow you everywhere!
ReplyDeletethat was simply fantabulous! :} is the foot washing in reference to jesus washing his disciples feet (showing preference)? i know some people do that for different symbolism, but i would like to know what yalls was...
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness you guys...thank you for expressing how much you enjoyed this. :) really! <3
ReplyDeletelaura....yeah, that is once of the main reasons we did it...showing that we selflessly adore the other and put aside dignity to do so if needed. :) it was one of my favorite parts of our ceremony.
I really love your veil, its the perfect combination of tradition and fun. Where did you get it?
ReplyDeletemy headscarf and flower piece i made myself and the actual train veil was made by a friend of my sister in law's in kansas city. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm balling over here in san diego. haha. love this so much and it just inspired me to stay true to myself during this wedding planning process.
