Vermont Wedding

Sure, it was my own! And I may be a tad bit biased, but I thought it was pretty good!

Our engagement was about 19 months, which left me plenty of time to come up with ideas, and then change them a few times. My goal was to have a beautiful detailed wedding with as low a cost as possible. I guess you could say that our biggest splurges were our venue and our photographer. However, both of those aspects were well worth the cost! The venue, Sugarbush Resort in Warren, Vermont,  really created a personal atmosphere that our guests enjoyed.  Our photographer, Channing Johnson Photography (MA) captured superior quality images we will forever love.

Our wedding was a destination for all of our guests. Being from Massachusetts, people took the ride up to Vermont, and most made a weekend out if it! It was a great way to make the weekend about more than just us, since people took family outings in the area.

Below are some of my favorite images, and also some images of the details. Most everything you see was DIY by me.

The new weddding blog!

Alright- So I'm already married. It's been almost a full three months since I tied the knot with my loving husband, Mike. We had a wonderful wedding, and I wouldn't change a thing about it. It was the perfect start to our marriage, which is what the wedding is all about!

Throughout the planning process, my father continually predicted that I was going to find myself bored when it all came to an end. He was only partially right, I do miss the planning! However- it is most definitely not because I am bored. I have a busy life: I am a high school art teacher, undergoing graduate studies, working on sets for our school musical, getting ready to buy (or build!) a home, and keeping up with everyday life. My schedule is packed full, and yet all I want to do is help someone plan their wedding!

I'm by no means original in this newest dream. I've known many a bride that has said "oh, I would love to be a wedding planner!" I always sigh and think, yeah right! But I am determined to give it a shot at least. Except- I don't want to just be a planner, I want to be in the industry's center. I want to review ideas, share posts, and give advice. There were a few blogs and websites that I found helpful through planning my own wedding, and I would love to someday be one of them. This is my new adventure- I'm going to give it a try. Starting from the moment I post this!

If you are out there and interested in help coordinating your wedding in the Massachusetts area...let me know! I hope to post some images of my wedding soon too. I figure you will need to see my credentials!
