Hi! Let me introduce myself. My name is Mrs. Bear Cub, and once upon a time, I blogged (relatively) consistently for this super-rad wedding site called Weddingbee.
No me recuerdes?? :)
It's ok, I'll catch you up! I live in Chile (Ms. Poodle's home country!) with Mr. Bear Cub. We met in New Mexico, got engaged in Thailand, and decided to marry in Mr. Bear Cub's home state of Oregon, at a summer camp. I had some crazy DIY plans along the way. And an even crazier plan to run a marathon with Mr. Bear Cub a week after our wedding!
How did it all pan out? It was crazy, wild, emotional, torrentuous, healing, but most importantly, perfect in every way for us. And although our wedding day was certainly and undeniably one of the happiest moments of my life, I'm very glad it's over. It's just a day, and now we get to cherish our memories, while building our future together.
Before I jump into the recaps, I have a little slideshow to show you that one of our wedding photographers made for us. I almost (almost) don't need any other token from our wedding; this selection of images completely encompasses the feeling of our wedding weekend - community.
When I think about the events that happened over the weekend of our wedding, the thing that makes me cry tears of happiness (every time!) is thinking about the incredible effort and support provided by our guests. Our guests were much much more than guests. As our friends, our family, our loved ones, they made up a community of love surrounding our wedding.
Every time I see a picture of our friends and family helping us create our wedding day, I cry tears of happiness. I can safely say that every single person in our wedding community truly made our wedding day happen. They helped create the event, just as they helped create us through all their previous years of support and love.
I can't wait to share with you how everyone helped make our wedding day happen. Hopefully I can make you feel like you were there with me, too. I sure wish you could have been. :)

ReplyDeleteoh what a special WONDERFUL wedding. interestingly enough, your REAL wedding was my DREAM wedding when I started planning. Somewhere along the road the whole thing has seemed to take on a life of it's own...it's became bigger than it ever needed to be. Yikes. And I'm reminded of what we wanted.
ReplyDeleteYour wedding was spectacular and simple. Thanks for sharing!
