I”m finally trying to catch up on blogging after a whirlwind month plus of east coast/west coast weddings! I hear it snowed in New York yesterday, which makes it seem even nicer to be catching up in the 75 degree Tucson Arizona sunshine.
I met Jennifer and Brian two years ago at her sister Kristine’s wedding. And Jennifer has the same diy perfectionist skills – every little detail was gorgeous and mostly hand made. Sparkly purple shoes, handmade diy ketubah, stunning purple and green invites. But what will forever make it memorable to me will be the ‘no pants’ text from Brian to Jen about 3 hours before their ceremony. Brian opened up his tux bag at the hotel, only to discover that his pants were mia. As in never put in to begin with! And so began a journey just before their wedding to locate a tuxedo store and get a pair of pants. Jen took it all in stride, no tears, no stress showing. And just a quick reshuffle on photo timing to make it all happen. I would say that their amazing attitudes and ability to keep calm under stress were actually the perfect start to what will be an absolutely amazing marriage.
