Save the Date ideasMatt surprised Amanda with a marriage proposal while they were on vacation, visiting her family in Brazil. “It was an amazing surprise, and he did it just right!” says Amanda. When they got back home and began looking at venues, they knew right away that a traditional wedding wasn’t for them. “We always had a laid back and intimate wedding in mind. Matt heard from a friend who had been to a destination wedding and was raving about all the fun they had, so we decided to give that some serious consideration. We visited Mexico in October 2012 and fell in love with the vibe, weather and people.”

Happy November! Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend and are enjoying the holiday tunes! His+Hers=Ours is back to share a few engagement photo ideas with you.

His+Hers=Ours: Wedding Dress Shopping!

This past weekend, we had my family come to town to attend one of the most exciting events there is, other than the wedding itself – WEDDING DRESS SHOPPING! My mom, maid of honor, sister-in-law and niece went with me to a couple of local wedding boutiques.

I prepared for wedding dress shopping by browsing online and printing pictures of my favorite dress styles to give the attendants an idea of what I like. I did my hair and makeup as if I was going out so when I was looking in the mirror I was getting the full picture of what I would look like on our wedding day.

Kelly & Jay
It has been a busy month of wedding planning! Jay and I were able to meet with our photographer from Pretty Pear Photography at the end of the summer to do our engagement shoot. We did a sunrise shoot and had an absolute blast. Our photographer is really talented and so much fun to work with. We’ve enjoyed spending some time going over our photos and deciding which ones to use for save the dates, for the guest book, and of course new profile pictures.
Hope you enjoy some of the photos from our shoot! Continue reading
