Ben and I got married in our former back garden with about 60 guests but there was a lot of planning that went into even that very simple celebration.

The first wedding was big, in a garden, with family and friends, Mexican food and a Mariachi band. The second was tiny and legal, at a garden (Heronswood ... yes!), with fewer family and friends. We planned both to be very simple, and they were the happiest days of the year. My advice? Make sure someone takes lots of pictures. You'll treasure them for the memories they inspire. Congratulations again! May you have a long, happy life together!Marianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-814656844817347020.post-12693108440025423392014-02-28T21:00:10.133-08:002014-02-28T21:00:10.133-08:00Congrats!

While it was easy and relatively stress free (mainly because we didn't tell our families beforehand), I've always missed the fact we have no pictures as momentos. We did have a great party with friend (and, yes, family) a month later, though.Kris Petersonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-814656844817347020.post-37267796156167341172014-02-28T09:06:37.170-08:002014-02-28T09:06:37.170-08:00CONGRATS!CONGRATS!Clever Girl Reviewshttp://www.clevergirlreviews.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-814656844817347020.post-24507923620427502352014-02-27T17:16:50.056-08:002014-02-27T17:16:50.056-08:00Congratulations!

I was all excited about Maui and the whales, since we had been there two years ago and had the same awesome experiences -- then you totally got me with the end of the post. Wonderful, wonderful! I think you should get married in your beautiful intimate backyard garden in summer. We'll want pictures of course. Congrats to you and Greg!Laurrienoreply@blogger.com
