I can’t believe that my 1-year wedding anniversary is just days away. This year has been one of the best and I couldn’t be happier.

Since I didn’t have my blog last year to recap all the details of our wedding, I will be posting all kinds of photos from last year in the next week or so. Hope you enjoy!!

Our families live on opposite coasts, so we were blessed with two amazing showers. We’re two very lucky people.

The first one was a total surprise while we were home on the east coast for a few days last April.

Even though I had no idea, Irving and I still had color coordinated outfits. HAHA

Sisters!

Every little detail was just amazing. From the cake:

To the “towel cake”:
 

To the Tea Pots!

They even had a chocolate fountain!

The favors were little treat bags with chocolate dipped tea spoons and homemade chocolate covered cherries!

It was so awesome to see my family and our friends!

Erika even came all the way from Florida!!

Look how happy I am!!!

Everyone loved the tea party! Even the littlest guests!

Then we played “Bingo” while we opened our amazing gifts!

Dad was a great helper!

My grandmother cross-stitched an amazing tablecloth for us!

Awe man, we’re so lucky!

Cutting into the most beautiful cake in the whole world!

I have a bagillion more photos of this, but I thought you guys might get bored.
Thank you SO much for everyone who came. It was SUCH a special Day!!!

PS… not to mention that Ashley and JR spoiled us when we got back to LA too!!

Just a few weeks later, we were lucky to have another shower!!! With our west coast friends and family!

It was at an amazing restaurant in the Bay Area. All the details were so coordinated!

The favors were custom teal and brown M&Ms!!!!

We played a game where we were asked questions about each other and if we got it wrong, we had to chew a piece of Bubalicious gum!

Yea…. we had to chew a lot of gum!

It was so much fun with everyone!

Thanks so much for all our great gifts!

Groomsman Jesse!

Awesome Shower! Thanks so much for throwing this for us!

Planning a wedding from the opposite coast definitely posed some challenges, but we were up for it! We were extremely prepared and organized, so it wasn’t too bad.

Our dining room table became wedding central the week before we left!
 

At the airport, ready to go get married!

Next time we’re on the west coast, we’d be married!

When we got to Boston, we spent a little time organizing all the stuff that we had in my mom’s house and then headed up to Lake Winnipesaukee!! 

It was so exciting to see our families merge in one location!
Hi Jake and Janie!
 

My grandparent’s awesome neighbor let me store my dress in their unit so Irving wouldn’t see it!

My parents gave us this aerial photo of our wedding location. We love it!
   

Per family tradition, we did face masks too!  HAHA

And then the madness fun began!
