Since the lilies that Mr. Bean gave me for our seven-month-a-versary were finally in bloom, I thought I would try and take some fancy ring shots. Here’s my favourite:

Apparently my rings really don’t like being in focus – they’re camera shy!

Have you tried to take photos of your ring? Let’s see them!

With the masses of cards you receive from all your showers, parties and wedding guests?

Why is there always such a battle between sentimental things and clutter?

What would you do?

I realized the other day that I have never made an inspiration board, so almost 7 months later I now present my actual wedding as an inspiration board. Maybe it will help inspire someone!

Have you ever made an inspiration board? Show me please! For those of you who are married, let’s see your wedding’s board.

Was Yesterday! We didn’t do much special for our first 1/2 anniversary last night, but we did go out to Field on the weekend. For those of you who didn’t know, Field was the location of our honeymoon. I think the Rockies are a great place for a honeymoon or a romantic weekend getaway!

Where is your ideal weekend getaway?

Happy Three-Month-a-Versary to us!

That’s right! Three months ago, Mr. Bean and I were married. Where did the time go? We’ve had lots of fun and lots of less fun things, but it’s only going to get better

Shame on me, I haven’t posted in a ridiculously long time. But I’m married now, so I guess this blog is somewhat redundant. However, I do have some fun stuff to share!

Since many of my friends have gotten married in the last year and a half, we thought it would be fun to take our dresses out of the closet and take some pictures! Unfortunately, only three on us could make it this weekend, but it was a blast! Our friend Mark of By Design Visuals is a budding photographer in Calgary and graciously offered to take our pictures.

Being all artsy

The pictures were taken in Heritage Park in Calgary, which makes an excellent back drop! My favourite part was all the little girls staring and exclaiming “Those are princesses!”.  You can see a sample of the pictures on his blog here.
