Today is my 1st Anniversary!

So today is my first anniversary with my husband, Chris. We decided to celebrate yestearday and it was amazing!

The weekend started with me trying to make a replica of our cake topper. It came out OK- luckily it tasted great so we were able to ignore the look:) We didn't freeze our cake topper because we made it a special flavor for the bridal party, Cannoli! So here's a picture of our cake on our wedding day:

And this is a picture of my recreated cake top! (Insert Laughter followed by mmmm...)

We woke up nice and late (8:00am) Saturday and Chris suggested that we head into town a little early and walk around Piedmont Park. I thought it sounded like a great idea! So we check into the Wyndham Midtown and start walking toward the park. On our way there, Chris's phone rings. I asked what it was and he told me it was a reminder of why we're not going to the park!


Usually he's not able to surprise me, but in the case, he was! He walked me to Blue MedSpa, and had booked us for an hour long couples massage! While I was there, I couldn't help but work! They have a lot of great bridal packages available too!

From that amazing massage, we went back and got dressed for dinner at the Melting Pot, one of our new favorite restaurants!

All of that was followed by a walk around the park today- what an amazing anniversary in town!

Reverend Deanna Lancaster

I've had the pleasure (and I do mean true pleasure) of working with "Rev D" on three occasions at this point. I honestly can't wait to work with her again! Each ceremony is individualized to the couple, and said with a heartfelt voice. She grows attached to all of her couples, which can be seen in the occasional tear. She also smiles, and occasionally laughs with each ceremony.

Pricing you ask? Last I heard she started at $250- which is SO reasonable these days!

Above Photograph thanks to the amazing Shannon Wright!
