Two.

meliaugi-26Two years ago, I was getting married to my best friend, my true love, my everything. It was by far the most amazing day of my life and if I could, I would choose to groundhog-day-it over and over again. Thankfully, those strong feelings of warmth and love I experienced the day of have not yet subsided two years later.

I am extremely lucky to be married to a person that loves me for who I am, faults and all. Someone that knows me better than I know myself. Someone that would sacrifice their own happiness for mine. He is the person I trust. The person that makes me feel safe. The person that can truly make me smile, inside and out.

Happy anniversary, my love. I am truly the luckiest wifey.

Weekend Highlights

sat01I was able to rest up enough to doll myself up for my cousin’s wedding on Saturday night. I wanted to make sure I didn’t look as terrible as I felt, so I got my trusty hairdresser to make me look pretty. I wanted a simple updo, but I’m pretty sure she doesn’t know how to do it if it isn’t fierce. So I got myself a pretty rockin’ do to go along with my awesome dress (it had pockets!). Thankfully, I started feeling better as the day progressed and by the time the wedding rolled around, no one could tell that I had been on my death bed for several days. Ten points for Meli! The wedding was gorgeous and my cousin made a beautiful bride. The reception was at the Epic Hotel, which totally lives up to its name. Her cocktail hour took place on the pool level, which boasted a stunning view of Downtown Miami. But my favorite part of the wedding? The photobooth sitting outside of the reception!!! I am completely obsessed with photobooths so having one I can play with for free made me feel like a little kid in a candy shop! The hubs and I were even brainstorming on how to make our own! How bad ass would it be to have one in our home?? Amazing, me thinks.

Lin & Jirsa

Everyone knows I’m an avid Twitter user. I am its biggest fan, but I can also get pretty annoyed with the seemingly odd strangers that decide to follow me (sexbots excluded). This past week, the opposite happened. Instead of some weirdo, an amazingly talented person decided to follow me: Christopher Lin of Lin & Jirsa Photography.

His company was voted the best wedding photographers of 2009 by MyFOXLA Hotlist and after looking through their blog, I can understand why. I know I’ve been married for almost 2 years now, but I cannot stop myself from checking out wedding photography blogs, wedding decor inspiration and even wedding dresses from time to time. I am just a sucker for event planning. So for all of my readers that are planning their wedding, planning someone else’s wedding, an event or are just a fan of pretty pictures, take a gander at their portfolio.

My favorite recent picture of theirs has to be the one above of a wedding that took place in a home designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Are you kidding me? Flipping amazing.

Thanks for the add, Christopher!

Vintage Love

momdadwedding

While visiting my Mom’s house over the weekend, I sifted through some old boxes that contained my grandmother’s photo albums and I discovered my parents’ wedding album. This was absolute gold to me. I had never seen any of these pictures since they were probably stashed away somewhere in my grandmother’s house and were the only copies. Unfortunately, my parents divorced when I was about 13 years old, but these pictures are still so meaningful and beautiful to me.

My mom always told me that I probably would have used her wedding dress had she not let her friend borrow it (she never got it back) and now I can honestly say that she was right. How beautiful did she look? My dad didn’t look too shabby himself either!

I’m so happy I was able to stumble upon these gorgeous pictures – they will definitely be something I treasure for the rest of my life. Does anyone else want to share their parents’ wedding photos?

Tonight we are hosting a RockBand party at our pad. We are encouraging guests to dress in their best rock duds and bring their shredding skills as they live out their rockstar fantasies as only modern technology can provide. Although I am not going all out like I did for my 27th Rockstar Birthday Extravaganza, it should be fun to dress up, take some crazy ringlight photos and jam with our best friends. I will be sure to post all the pictures come Monday morning, promise. 😉
