Lilac Dude and I received an email from our photographer letting us know that he had scheduled a wedding on May 27th that was out of town. While he was sure that he’d be able to return in time to shoot our wedding on May 28th, he would have his two assistants available to shoot it in case of delay. It was a generous offer considering that our photography package calls for only one photographer, but it didn’t make me feel any better. How could he book a wedding that may make him miss ours?

I was pretty mad. After a new contract and some back and forth we still have our photographer.

I’m comfortable with the way I look in my wedding dress so I’m not exactly trying to get in “dress shape”. My goal is to look the way that I want to in my honeymoon bikini!

Brides aren’t the only ones who need to be healthy and active, grooms do too! So why not do it together?
Lilac Dude and I embraced summer one Saturday afternoon when we took advantage of a beautiful day and went on a 3 mile bike ride. On a not so nice day we paid our school’s fitness facility a visit after work. I enjoy being active with Lilac Dude because it gives us some quality time together and it’s not dominated by wedding planning.
