Hi, friends! Those of you closest to me know that I spent the 1.5-2 years following my last son’s birth struggling in so many ways. No, I didn’t choose to make all of those struggles public, but I will be discussing that soon in an upcoming blog post. Basically, though, to simplify A LOT, I was living in survival mode and fell short in so many areas of my life.  I let myself have a brief pity party and then started rebuilding my world… two jobs, three kids, and just not feeling well myself had taken it’s toll. But I’ve never been one to give up or give out. Yes, it was a struggle at times as I worked towards putting myself back together, and it’s finally paid off! Fortunately, I’m back on my A-game and I’m SO proud of how far I’ve come. On the other hand, UNfortunately, I fell WAY behind in blogging, as it simply was not my priority. But that won’t keep me from sharing with you all NOW! There is no way I’d let all these gorgeous weddings and beautiful couples stay stashed away on my hard drive! So be prepared for engagements, bridals, and weddings to come your way over the next several months. And THANK YOU for bearing with me as I’ve dropped more than a few balls over the last couple of years. You truly are the best people I know, and I’ve needed your support and encouragement more than I can express. <3

Up first is Sarah and Rob’s Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden Wedding.  THIS wedding is one of my favorites! I absolutely LOVE when couples make their day uniquely their own, and Sarah and Rob did just that….starting with Sarah’s STUNNING BLUSH WEDDING DRESS!  Yep. It’s pretty much the thing that fairytales are made of.  But enough of my talking about it…Have a look for yourself!

 

Happy Thursday, friends!

M xoxo
