Wedding Week II: It’s Baaaaaaaaack

Our July 2007 wedding still feels like just yesterday, so it’s pretty funny to think that as of tomorrow we’ll officially have been married for two whole years! Time flies when you’re having fun. And we can hardly believe it’s already been an entire year since our first Wedding Week (where we shared a slew of wedding-related details right here on the blog, which we later rounded up to create our Wedding Album page).

And because last year’s Wedding Week was met with such enthusiasm, we figured our two year anniversary was a great reason to revisit a few more wedding-related events and traditions. Ladies and gentlemen (gentleman?), we present to you… (release the doves!)… Wedding Week II.

And we’re beyond honored to announce that Abby over at the amazing and unparalleled Style Me Pretty (THE destination for all things lovely and wedding-related) has featured our wedding to help us kick off wedding week with a bang.

So mosey on over there and explore one of the most eye-candy-riddled sites that we’ve ever seen. And come on back for more wedding-related fare right here on YHL. In fact, this week you can look forward to:

  • how we met, fell in love, and got hitched
  • the story of John’s proposal
  • some honeymoon details
  • our little anniversary tradition
  • and the place where we almost said “I do” (before switching to our backyard)

Sure, it’s a little bit self-indulgent and a tad unrelated to home decor, but we’d like to think that our relationship is an important part of what makes Young House Love tick. So we hope you’ll enjoy this week’s lovey-dovey detour with us (don’t worry, we’ll still be dishing out some of the usual home-related stuff too). As we say so often around these parts, stay tuned…

    Awwww, happy anniversary week you guys!

    I could never, ever, ever imagine myself getting married (the traditional Irish wedding is a pet hate of mine) until I saw the photos and details of your wedding. It just looked to be so fun and chilled out. Looking forward to the stories now :)

    Can’t wait to hear all about it. Happy almost Anniversary. I wish I had half the talent as you guys do when I got married almost three years ago. We did a lot of DIY decor for our wedding too. Can’t wait to see your details.

    We’re hopping all around for weddings while we’re in the US this summer. I’m excited for yours in review, too. I like the occasional arm chair kind. :) Happy anniversary.

    Looking forward to it… .and happy anniversary!! I’m still in a wedding fog as we just got married in May. So I will definitely be all giddy over your wedding week posts :)
    It would be awesome if you guys did some sort of art project together to celebrate your anniversary (and of course share it here!)… we did that last year and had so much fun!

    We’d love it if you posted a link to us on your blog, Christin M. Thanks in advance!

    Also, thanks for sharing in all of our anniversary excitement everyone. With this being such a popular time of year for weddings (including Kate’s on Friday, wow!) we figured you’d all enjoy getting in the spirit with us. We hope you’ll share more of your stories along the way too!

    Hi guys,

    Congratulations are in order. You are both such an inspiration in everything you do. I wanted to stop by and thank you for inspiring me and Sherry stop by my blog so you can see the latest project I’m giving you credit for. I am calling it a Forest in our master bedroom. Can’t wait to see what you think.

    Hi S&J, Just found your site via Style Me Pretty and wanted to say … wow! I love your pics of your own home makeover, the before and afters, the advice … I guess I love it all! I can’t wait to have time to sit down and go back through your site and see what I discover. A big thanks also for kick starting my DIY makeover enthusiasm again for my own home. My hubs and I moved into our house in September last year, were married in October, and I haven’t done much in the way of decorating other than dreaming. Now, I’m definately inspired to get on with the doing.
