If you’ve ever gotten married, you understand why I’ve been disappeared for the last week or so. The lead up was crazy – but I don’t even need to get into that right now. You want to get into the good stuff right? The stuff I’ve been talking about for the last year or so?
We got married on Saturday!
I will break down the whole thing a little more in detail in a few days, but I will give you guys a little taste of what we did this weekend.
Our wedding was gorgeous. It was perfect. It went off without a hitch. And I am officially a Mrs!
- I heard from someone at the venue that our food was the best. We did fried chicken (tofu for me), collards, mac and cheese, potatoes, and biscuits. It was straight-up as southern as it gets.
- My dress. Ahhhhh that dress. It was delicious, and I never ever wanted to take it off. After we got back, I kinda flopped down on the bed in our suite for a good 20 minutes before I had to take it off.
- I danced literally for 100 hours. I had to shower after.
- The day was perfect, and I love my family – my family family, and my new family – new husband especially! Feels cool to finally call him husband!
A few photos to tide you over until I do the FULLLLLL recap?
So, this is just a little taste, as I ease back into my life.
What I can say, however, is that I feel SO loved – by friends, by family, by my husband and I’m looking forward to years and years of celebrations like these. I love you all, and thank you all for an amazing weekend.
That said…what did you do this weekend?

I think I know where you got married! I can’t remember the name of the place but it’s kind of far out, right? Like past Mebane? We went to a wedding out there in June and it was gorgeous! Did it have a red tractor on display? And you look amazing!
Yes! It’s Starlight Meadow, and it was FANTASTIC. Literally fantastic!
Congratulations Cheri. My oh my, what a beautiful bride you were. May god’s blessings be showered upon you and Austy Bosty!
A great time was had by all!!!!!!
It was so fantastic. There was nothing I can say that I wanted different – as far as I’m concerned, everything was perfect, including my groom!
You were gorgeous and the party was perfect. Hey one other thing, I’m nominating you for the “One Lovely Blog Award.” Cause you’re awesome.

CONGRATS!!!! I’ve been waiting for this update! I can’t wait to see everything else 🙂
It was so perfect. Can’t wait to share more with you all!
You look amazing and amazingly happy! Best wishes for a lifetime of teamwork, trust, and mountains of love! And your dad is adorable in his tux! He looks so young! That shot the drunken groomsman took is stunning.
Thank you so much! These are just the iphone pics, so I really can’t wait to see what the real ones look like!
Congrats to you two!!!!! Your dress is absolute perfection!
Aw thanks! My favorite part of the dress (besides the lace) was the back. I do a lot of Body Pump, and between the color and the Pump, that was definitely my fave. So far, I’ve only been married for 8 days, and it’s been absolutely awesome!
