Hey friends!  Josh is going to be taking over some blogging here and there, so we thought today would be a great day to kick it off! Ashley + Zach are just a fantastic, funny, and hilariously sarcastic couple.  They’re real and hold nothing back when they talk to each other.  Having not met them going into […]

From the very beginning, Maura was clear on her wedding planning process: Hire the right professionals and don’t worry about anything.  And it worked!  She was so relaxed on her wedding day, and everything ran very smoothly.  Each vendor and coordinator was on top of their game and easy to work with! As for Maura […]

When you take good care of your clients they share your name, and that’s exactly how I ended up in Ocean City, Maryland on Monday!  After emailing for months and planning their wedding, I finally got to meet Brittany & Carl (& their sweet dog, Gus!) for the most perfect evening.  Not too hot, perhaps […]

I’m totally loving the hand lettering and watercolor look lately.  It’s so beautiful, complicated, simplistic, and messy all at the same time… kind of like life.  And as much as I love a cheap download to print myself, an original piece of work is just incredible.  And that’s exactly what Cartesterson INK is doing! 100% […]

I rarely say this, but Facebook has knocked it out of the park for business pages lately!  So often Facebook is a struggle for businesses.  It’s a great marketing tool for sure, but the rules change constantly and paying for advertising doesn’t guarantee better results. I’ll be the first to admit that I sometimes stick […]

As I wrote about our house updates earlier this week, I realized that there is a definite theme in our home decor… and in our lives!  We love to remember where we came from.  We both grew up very differently from how our daughter will grow up.  Neither is better or worse, but there are […]

Scroll down to the bottom of this post for an easy DIY tutorial on one of our decoration pieces! ——————————— When we moved in our house two years ago, everything was painted white.  It was pretty awesome!  We immediately started painting a few rooms, but after we moved in, the newness faded and we settled […]

I wrote this post back in January but never published it.  Today I came across it and thought about updating it in light of our announcement on Monday, but I don’t think I can.  Instead, I think there’s a bigger story here.  I’ll share that at the end. January 2015 Yesterday at 12pm I was […]

One of the best things about buying a home is that we get to host parties and it’s not all awkward telling people we live in the 3rd floor apartment anymore!  So any chance we get to host a get together, we jump in head first.  The downside is, I spend so much time getting […]

If you didn’t see our huge announcement yesterday, make sure you check it out here! We met at 5:30am the morning after her wedding.  All four of us (Rebecca the bride, her loyal-even-at-5:30am friend Sarah, Josh, and myself) were wearing flip flops for the mile long hike because we’re really smart like that.  We got about […]
