to you!

i just cannot post another word without expressing how grateful matt and i are for our families, friends, and clients. starting this business would have been impossible without their unwavering support. so many of you have trusted us with your weddings this upcoming year; we are so blessed by your confidence in our passion. we talk about you guys a lot, how unique each couple is, how we feel like we are making friends not clients, and how amazing this upcoming year is shaping up to be. blog readers, thank you so so much for reading and to those of you who leave comments, thank you a million! it is so great to know that other people (besides me!) are having fun with this blog! love to you all.

saturday, after melissa and will’s engagement session (check out their new slideshow here!!), we rounded up some old friends for dinner. there is something about eating good food with excellent friends that makes pulling together three tables in an overcrowded restaurant (a little) less embarrassing. it was so wonderful to be around people i spent such a special time of my life with. the bond we have will always be strong and around them i will always feel relaxed and loved. here are a few of matt’s fabulous shots:

just because i promised it, here’s a little shout-out to my hubby for making my birthday amazing! i fuzzily remember parts of the birthday song around midnight; luckily matt understands that for me repeating it a few more times when i’m awake is a great idea too! you’ve heard that the way to a girl’s heart is through her stomach, i wish that weren’t true, but alas, it works every time. matt’s big breakfast (all ready before i had to leave at 7:30 am!) was a delicious way to start the day! when we reconvened at the apartment around 6:00 to get ready for dinner, matt had beautiful flowers and presents! we headed out to ONE Midtown Kitchen where we shared one of the most complex and thoughtful meals i’ve ever had, and i’m only referring to the food. we talked forever just like we always have about our dreams, our goals, and this year added reminiscing over our first five months of marriage. it was such a great birthday, and baby, you’re the best!
