10 Tips for Brides and Grooms on their wedding day

Life in Love  //  

With the start of wedding season in full gear, we thought it would be fun to share 10 tips for brides and grooms on their wedding day! We actually started brainstorming these for a little something special we sent over to Natalie and Huey before their big day last week! As we wrote them out, we realized maybe this is something all of our brides and grooms could learn from. A few tweaks later… here are 10 tips for brides and grooms on their wedding day:

1. No matter how crazy your timeline looks on your wedding day, take 10 minutes to just be alone together! Whether you are doing a First Look or not, make sure you have time built in just for you to be together. “Bridal time” flies by and everyone wants a little of your time on your wedding day! Be sure to be proactive and build in time for yourselves!

2. Forget about the details! You have worked so hard up until this point to put everything together, now is the time to just relax and enjoy the day!

3. Take every chance you get to let each other know how much you love each other!! Don’t ever miss an opportunity to tell each other over and over again how much you mean to each other.

4. Trust your professionals! You have hired them for a reason… let go and trust that they are going to do their job and make your day as memorable as possible!

5. Take in every single moment that someone tells you how AMAZING you look! Stand up proudly and enjoy the feelings and emotions that come with being one of the happiest days of your life!!

6. Do not let anything bother you! Nothing at all! All that matters is that you are together with your love and you are getting married!!!!

7. Do whatever you want, whenever you want!!! Forget about what you “should do”!! This is your day… enjoy every minute of it!

8. Eat! One of the biggest things we hear after weddings from the bride and groom is that they are bummed that they didn’t eat. Whether it is nerves or just that there is so much going on, you are going to want to have some of that AMAZING food at some point during the night! ;) Before the wedding, ask your caterer to make sure they save a few of the appetizers for you! And if it comes to the big day and you are just not hungry at the time, ask them to box them up for you! By the end of the evening- you will be hungry for sure! ;) Ohhh and don’t forget about the dessert! If you do a cake cutting, you will definitely get a bite. But let’s be honest, you should have more than a bite! ;) Enjoy!

9. During the reception… While you are eating!!!!…. Take a look around and recognize that everyone who is there is there for you!! They are there because they love you! And remember that there are many others who might not be there physically, and are thinking about you at that exact moment too!

10. Have FUN!! You have planned the most AMAZING party of your lives! Enjoy it!!!

Amazing Marriages - take adventures together

AMAZING Marriages: Take Adventures Together

Life in Love  //  

Liz says she hates to pack, but loves to travel. The packing part never stops her. Overstuffed suitcases in tow, we packed the car and we were off once again. Life is such a crazy adventure sometimes, but it is so much fun enjoying the ride together.Take Adventures Together

So far this year, it seems like we have been away more than we have actually been home. In fact, we’ve been away so much we’ve even joked of renting out our house while we are away. Not kidding… airbnb.com might be in our future!

Amazing Marriages - Take Adventures TogetherBeing adventurous together has helped strengthen our relationship. Each time we set out on a new trip, we are making experiences together and memories that will last a lifetime. As the summer approaches, we encourage everyone to take adventures together. Whether it is going for a bike ride on a new trail, traveling to a far off country, white water rafting, taking a class at a local college, or just being adventurous in the kitchen with a new tasty meal, try something new together.

Mark Twain Quote on Taking Adventures

For us, no matter where we are or what we are doing, we are always together. And that is what makes this life amazing.

Amazing Marriages - love when I am with you

Amazing Marriages – The way I feel when I am with you

Life in Love  //  

As we squeezed together to cuddle on the chair that was only meant for one person, I was reminded of his warmth and the comfort he brings to my heart. Yesterday, Ryan and I spent the entire day just relaxing and hanging out with my brother at his home in Michigan. It was delightful!

We watched movies, golf, and everything in between. We laughed while Ben and Ryan picked on each other like they did in our high school days. There were many moments yesterday that I had to remind myself we were in Michigan and we weren’t actually in our childhood home in PA. I had a sense of comfort and relaxation that I haven’t really felt in a long time!

As Ryan squeezed me tight so that we could fit onto the chair together, we laughed and we goofed around like we were “kids” again. I did everything I could to soak in the moment and remember what it feels like to have that carefree comfort and be surrounded by the ones we love!Amazing Marriages - love when I am with you

A Love Letter to You! | AMAZING Life Together Webinar Thank You!

Life in Love  //  

Words really cannot describe how grateful we are for all of you! For every single person who supported us along the way, for the Love Inspirers, and for all of the viewers who tuned in (or will be tuning in with the recordings) to watch the AMAZING Life Together More Time for Love Webinar… THANK YOU!

AMAZING Life Together Webinar

This blog post really is a love letter to you! ;) On Wednesday we will be sharing a few more details of the behind the scenes with a fun recap, but today we need to start with one huge THANK YOU!

When Ryan and I come up with these crazy dreams, it always starts with a crazy conversation that begins from a huge passion in our hearts. When our passion is strong enough, we dive right in. Over the past few months, our passion to inspire other couples to live a more AMAZING Life Together has been growing by the day. AND on days where we don’t think it is even possible for our passion to get any stronger… we get fired up! It is crazy! ;) But so INCREDIBLY exciting!! We are so grateful!

Your kind words, your emails, your support (and even those critics) have truly driven us to make this Webinar and the AMAZING Life Together efforts even more than we had dreamed them to be! You all have reminded us how incredibly special the gift of marriage truly is and just how important it is to celebrate love! The whole process of creating the webinar was definitely challenging! And we learned so so so much about the process along the way!!! But every single day, we felt AMAZINGly grateful and incredibly humbled to know that the opportunity was in our hands to bring people together to talk about Love!

The Love Inspirers poured their hearts out there! Every single couple shared their raw love stories (the good, the bad, and the challenging! ;) )! From the very first interview that we did, Karen and Isaac absolutely took every expectation we could have had and blew it out of the park. I think it was that day of that very first interview that changed the way we looked at the webinar. It was that day that we realized this was going to be so much more than we ever could have dreamed it to be. This was so much bigger than us… so much bigger than all of the Love Inspirers combined! God had given us the gift of these AMAZING people in our lives and the opportunity to bring them together to touch the lives of others. It was our responsibility to share these stories and start this conversation about love! We see it as our responsibility to keep that conversation going!

We are so honored that you are here with us for this journey! Thank you for your open hearts and shared passion to live your AMAZING Life Together. As we reflect back on these AMAZING two months of planning for the webinar, we are taking some time to regroup and let our hearts wander! ;) We are definitely dreaming of what’s next and how we can help touch people’s lives in a special way! One thing we can say for sure is that we are definitely going to do everything that we can to help inspire others to live their more AMAZING Life Together! We hope you will continue to join us for the journey! ;)

Thanks again to the Love Inspirers: Lara and Ari, Ashley and Jeremy, Katelyn and Michael, Justin and Mary, and Karen and Isaac! You light our hearts on fire! ;) And to every single person that tuned in! You all are AMAZING!

Huge hugs all around! ;) We are so grateful for YOU!
