Well after a slow start in November, we’ve made some serious progress on the house 🙂 On Friday morning we left the house about 6AM to head down to a full day of selection appointments. We had our electrical walk through where we got to place all our outlets, we picked our cabinets, counters, tile, faucets and lights! It was so productive and so exhausting. We cannot wait for the weather to warm up and head down there for weekends away from the hustle & bustle here in Charlotte. And of course our answer still stands, we WILL be renting it 🙂 You can email me for details! I’m very thankful we have a builder who utilized a website called BuilderTrend. Through it we get photo updates of all the progress. It’s a good thing we don’t live to close, or I’d be driving by daily! Left: Tile for the master shower! It will have the decorative boarder of the glass at eye level. Right: Oh the faucets that are available are hilarious…. gold swans. check. We’re heading back in about 2 weeks to check in and make any final changes before the sheet-rock goes up!

This was unexpectedly, one of my favorite weddings of 2012. Meredith came by me by one of her bridesmaids- we had never met, never spoke on the phone, only emailed- and very little of that. Normally by the time the wedding roles around, I have a general idea of the bride, her plans and what kind of wedding it will be- this time, I was blind… but I showed up to a beautiful home, to find some of the sweetest, most beautiful women having brunch and getting dolled up. Meredith met me with a giant smile and had instant trust in me, she often said to her vendors that day “your the professional” and that makes me feel like a million bucks! You’ll see an image below of Meredith getting her makeup done, and looking quite different. She is currently surviving cancer, but you would have never known it that day. She is on an upcoming episode of “Say Yes to the Dress, Atlanta” this season, and it was an honor to be part of that experience and to capture her wedding day to Christopher. I’ve never seen a groom so in love with his bride- I hope the future brings me many more couples just like them- the kind that restore your faith in humanity & love.
