My fiance and I have been together since 2012 and I am so excited to marry my best friend on October 5 of this year :) We are getting married at a Summer camp in New Hampshire that we've rented out for the weekend. I am attempting lots of DIY for the weekend and can't wait for our wedding.

Happily married 🎉
