Officially Being Teased

The anticipation is killing me! Seriously, I love my photographer and I'm more than happy to wait for his finished product, but the teasers he sends me are driving me crazy!

The first series is of when I opened my wedding gift from Mr. B (which, I admit, I had an idea of what it was). The second photo speaks for itself. How rad are John's purple socks?!  I also love my 2 cousins looking down to see what's going on and my cute lil' Lola making sure he is doing it right. The flowergirls pictured are holding the bridesmaids' bouquets and I'm swooning over it!

So can't wait to share our beautiful winery wedding with all of you. Waiting to start recaps is definitely one of the hardest facets of being a bee!

How long after your wedding did you wait for your professional photos? Was it totally worth your wait?

U.S. Marine Corps Cuff Links

In honor of the Marine Corps birthday, I wanted to share this small detail that I gifted Mr. B for our wedding!

I gave these to him on Valentine's Day this year, in preparation and celebration of our wedding. He served in the Marine Corps for 4 years and I thought this small touch would be a nice way to honor such an important part of his life on our wedding day. In hindsight, I should have waited until our wedding day; the cufflinks made it to Napa, but were packed safely in his suitcase back at our hotel. The same Valentine's Day, he gifted me both the necklace and bracelet I wore on our wedding day. If only we would have remembered to grab the cufflinks...oh well...

Happy Veterans' Day and USMC Birthday! Thank you and bless all those who served! Did you honor your loved one's service in the military on your wedding day?
