We got them back yesterday - all 20+ gigs of pictures!!

It is going to take a LONG time to get through them and pick our favorites, but I am determined.

I'll be posting some soon.

The is the ultimate question newlyweds get to hear after the wedding is over and while a lot of couples say that it feels the same, it doesn't to us!

Even Donny agrees. It feels... different. For the first time in our relationship, I am not taking undergrad courses, masters courses, or making things for the wedding (for a little anyway, I have some projects up my sleeves). It just gets to be "us". It feels... calm, comfortable, ours. It feels nice. There are no more weights on our shoulders about anything, save this economy.

Regardless of the environmental changes, WE feel different. WE feel more connected and happier. This partnership is awesome. That's all I have to say.

You think that after the wedding, all you have to do is write "Thank you's", but no. My décor vendor emailed me with charges for missing centerpieces and now I have an invoice for holes burned through my rented linens. $96 for two linen replacements. FAN TAST TICK.

Great. My budgeting skills were almost perfect until then. Now I will be off budget for another expense.

I still have not heard from the chair vendor. I can only imagine...

In the future, if I see people taking stuff from weddings I attend, I will surely stop them to ease the headaches for the bride and groom. Please leave the centerpieces alone unless you know they are for the taking!

We've been married for a little over two weeks now, but I am just now getting to post. I've updated the site with some more of the DIY projects and I've posted some non-professional pictures along with some from the honeymoon.

The honeymoon was amazing. We met a lot of nice couples who shared the same wedding date. It was tough coming home and immediately going to work the next morning. You know what they say... we needed a vacation after our vacation.

We've been flooded with nice emails and great responses from our friends and family about how beautiful the wedding was. That makes the blood and sweat of all those projects kinda worth it. It looked better than how I envisioned it.

I've been stalking the photographer's site, but no pictures yet. I should have them by the end of this week!
