the start

this blog is being birthed out of my necessity to record processes that i undertake and experiences experienced.  

specifically in this case: the process of creating my wedding day.

i've always pictured what it would be like and now i can actually start to piece it all together.

each step i take i will be  recording on this blog along the way.
