wedding > a sneak peek!

Hi everyone!

Wow, it feels like forever since I have posted. I have missed blogging but it was great to have a week to focus on wedding preparations. I hope my 'Wedding Guests' kept you entertained. I have more awesome guest bloggers lined up this weekend while Ivan and I are away on our honeymoon.

For now though, here is a little peek at our wedding photos. These are the only ones I have seen so far and I can't wait to see more! Our photographer Kara was so SO amazing. We had a great time!
I am dying over how handsome Ivan looks in these photos.

I will share more wedding details later but for now I will just tell you my 3 favourite things from the day.

1. Seeing Ivan for the first time during our 'first look' photos was the absolute best part of the day. I had major butterflies and we may or may not have shed a few tears (ok we definitely did).

2. Ivan's speech to me was the sweetest thing in the world and he made quite a few guests fall in love with him too (including a bunch of guys).

3. During our vows I needed a tissue to wipe my nose (gross) then Ivan needed it so I passed it to him. I felt like that was very us and it got some laughs.

It really was a magical day that went by in a flash. I feel so lucky.
