for the love of weddings

i couldn't be more excited to share some news with you today!  if you are a long time follower of 26 east, then you"ll recall that evan and i were married last summer.  you may also recall that we personally took on nearly every project associated with our big day from the invites to the flowers to the decor.

the majority of inspiration for our wedding came from hours of researching wedding blogs and finding bits and pieces of ideas that we could make our own.  as someone who has managed various special events as a career and who just absolutely loves weddings (especially the unique details that set them apart) having a resource for finding all that inspiration was key.

that's why i am so excited to announce that i will be joining forces with emily walters - the creative force behind middle of the map weddings - a resource for unique, midwest-style events!  i met emily earlier this year and she even featured our wedding on MOTM.  and now i am thrilled to have the chance to work alongside her as a co-contributor.   together, we'll be highlighting gorgeous events from all over the midwest and providing inspiration to brides and grooms everywhere! 

i'll of course still be blogging from 26 east but you can catch me over there now too.  be sure to stop by and say hello - and spread the word to any future brides you know.  or if you're like me and just really love to see how other people throw a really fabulous party, be sure to check us out on the regular! 

thanks so much to emily for putting her faith in me - i am thrilled to be a part of this beautiful spot on the map!
