Happy New Year + Best of 2013

by in , — Updated January 1, 2014

Happy New Year, Violets! I found this vintage Art Nouveau post card that just happens to feature violets and a happy new year message – couldn’t resist sharing. We’ve been able to feature so many talented artists, beautiful real weddings, stunning styled shoots, and such creativity on the blog in 2013. I feel truly blessed to be working at something I love and to be sharing inspiration for wedding celebrations with so many people. In 2013 we had readers from 186 countries in all. How cool is that!? As I take a look at this past year I see dreams turning into goals, and with hard work and persevering through many challenges, turning those dreams into reality. The first issue of our print magazine has just been printed. When I first held it in my hands less than a week ago, I have to admit, it still didn’t feel real. It took a few days. Now that it has sunk in, I am filled with excitement for all the issues to come, and am gearing up for a productive year ahead. Thank you all for making 2013 the great year that it was!
