Road to I Do Wedding Series:

 INTRODUCTION

We're married! It's been almost two months since we tied the knot on 3.11.22 and it still feels surreal that I'm a wife and I get to do life with my best friend forever. I had been anxiously awaiting the big day since the day I became a fiancé on 11.3.20 and it was undoubtfully better than anything I could have dreamed of. 

As someone who enjoys hosting and planning, I took the challenge of being a DIY Bride - we worked to come up with a vision, without outside opinions, so that everything was truly what we wanted. While I learned pretty quickly planning a wedding is much different than hosting a small get together at home (lol) I made it out alive and can now share the experience and all that I've learned throughout the process in hopes of helping future couples & brides!
