Wedding Wednesday: The Wedding Row + Updated Checklist.

Yesterday after lunch I came back to my computer and checked Facebook, and to my surprise, I saw that Cameron and my engagement pictures were featured on The Wedding Row! I knew the pictures were going to be featured, I just didn't know when. So it was a lovely surprise! :)

  2. You're seriously checking things off that list! Can't wait to see who you're using for the videographer. I always love that part!

  3. I love The Wedding Row! One of my absolute favorite sites. Perhaps it's because I live in Charleston and just adore seeing Charleston venues as home to some gorgeous Southern weddings? You've gotten a lot done. I promise those last 144 days are going to fly by so quickly. We got married at the I'On Creek Club this past February and I can't believe how quickly a year is going by. Enjoy every moment, because you'll look back and say "wow that went by too fast.".
