Josh and Ellen’s Wedding
On Monday Josh and I (Ellen) celebrated our SEVEN year anniversary! Time has definitely flown by! Today I thought I would share our wedding with you all! Now I have to give you all a warning—our wedding was not super unique. We got married before wedding blogs were around (or at least most of them weren’t) so we tried to get inspired by what we liked. I LOVED color at the time, so we incorporated that everywhere! We got married in my great aunt and uncles peach orchard, which was GORGEOUS! Josh and I were pretty poor when we got married so we tried to save as much money as possible -our whole wedding came to under $1000 (you can see how we spent money below)! All our photos were done with a film camera, so they are all scanned in!

Meredith
Despite her dreamy wedding blogger lifestyle, Meredith's day job is running ClassicVeils.com and a full-time mom to an active toddler. If she could, Meredith would spend her days taking cruises, helping animals in need, and watching Big Brother!
This September Dimitris (my fiance) and I will get married. Thank you for this post! We believe we don’t have enough money for the wedding and our new house. But you did a very nice wedding with almost no money! Congratulations!
I can’t get over that gorgeous cake!
Your wedding was beautiful and you guys are too! Congratulations on seven years!!!
