S+L 3rd Anniversary: Where are they now?

For the past week you have seen our wedding details and all of the fun stuff that it took to get there.  I thought it would be fun to do a post showing where some of the elements from our wedding are now and how we use them in our everyday lives.

After the wedding was over, we had lots of the Chinese take out boxes left over.  I decided to redecorate them and create snack boxes for Christmas to give to coworkers.

This...
...turned into this...


My bouquet and the sand from our sand ceremony is now in our glass case in the dining room.



   

I wear my earrings when I get the urge, and the necklace to formal occasions.



The basket which housed the programs is now in our coat closet holding umbrellas (you may have seen this already in the basket post).



Our "vases" which were actually pilsners from Ikea are now a permanent part of our drinkware.



Some of the florals are now scattered around the house in a few locations.



The branches used to hold the escort cards are now in a vase at my mom's house.



Thanks for following us over the week and taking a peek at our wedding!  Feel free to post any links of your own wedding posts, I'd love to check them out.  I love seeing how people's weddings come together and how they add personal elements that reflect their personalities.  Also, tell me, do you have any items from your wedding that you use in your everyday life?

Have a great weekend and next week we will be back to our regularly scheduled DIY-ing!

S+L 3rd Anniversary: Wedding Day + Honeymoon

Today is our 3rd Anniversary..and with that being said, "Happy Anniversary, Baby"!  My how time flies!  We've actually been together since 2004 so it really has been a long time that we have been in each others lives...and as long as he acts right I'll stick around even longer, ha! :)

Since I have covered all of our behind the scenes details from our wedding over the past week (check all of the posts out here if you missed any), I will now post a few images from our big day so that you can see how everything came together.



























After the wedding, Simon surprised me with a night at the Omni Hotel!  It was so beautiful and we were on a pretty high floor...high enough to see the Atlanta skyline!




The next morning we jumped on a flight to Puerto Rico for some honeymoon fun!  We ended up renting a condo that we found using Home Away.  It was a great deal, and the condo was right on the ocean.  Here are a few honeymoon photos.








Do you feel closer to us now that you have seen all of our wedding and honeymoon details?  Well hang tight because the last post to wrap up our 3rd Anniversary Virtual Party is coming later this week!
