Hi everyone! Another wedding post and I am SO EXCITED to share some photos of our first look! If you don't know, a "first look" is when you and your significant other opt to see each other before the wedding ceremony. Popular opinions and/or "traditions" may lead you to think otherwise, but there isn't a right or wrong decision to be made regarding whether or not you should do a first look - it is completely up to the bride and groom! Personally, I wanted to do a first look and I was SO EXCITED for it. I had many reasons why I wanted to have a first look... To help calm my nerves... your wedding brings out so many emotions and it can be very overwhelming, especially since you may not see and/or talk to your significant other until you're about to say "I do" TO TAKE PHOTOS ... read more
WHY WE DID A “FIRST LOOK”
MY 2018 IN EIGHTEEN
Hey everyone! HAPPY NEW YEARS AND HELLO 2019! Cheers to a new year! You may be ready to leave 2018 goodbye, but this past year will forever hold a special place in my heart that Matt and I officially became husband and wife. We had so many events and adventures along the way, and I am so grateful for everything. I am not too sure how 2019 can beat it, but I am excited to see what is in store for us! This is one of my annual posts that I have been posting for the last few years, so if you are interested in checking out my 2015, 2016 and 2017 posts, here they are: 2017 in Seventeen 2016 in Sixteen 2015 in Fifteen From wedding planning to spending every second I could by the pool, to having two bachelorette parties, celebrating birthdays (including my own), getting married, ... read more
3 MONTHS MARRIED & OUR FIRST MARRIED CHRISTMAS
Hey everyone! I am a few days late on our 3 months married anniversary... you know, with the holidays and Christmas events happening all at the same time, it was a struggle to keep up with everything! Christmas seems to arrive earlier every year, doesn’t it?! This Christmas was my first Christmas as a married woman, and despite having spent the holidays as an engaged couple the last two years, I wanted to do things a little different/do something special for it. We decided to send out some Christmas/Thank you cards to our closest family and friends - I ordered them from Shutterfly and they turned out so cute! We were lucky enough to snag a free photo session with Santa Claus, and of course, we had to do it! I think I've taken photos with Santa maybe once or twice before, but ... read more
MY WEDDING PHOTO ALBUMS
I hope everyone had a MERRY CHRISTMAS and are enjoying the holiday season with all of their family and friends! I cannot believe Christmas has come and gone already! My hubby and I had such a fun and memorable Christmas - our very first married Christmas! To celebrate, I decided to create a few Wedding photo albums for some of our closest family members using Shutterfly. I've been using Shutterfly for a couple years now -- I think I've created 10+ photo albums!! I absolutely LOVE their photo album creator - it's so fun and easy to use and I love that you're able to customize everything to your liking! Shutterfly has so many products you can customize and order and they ALWAYS have deals and promotions going on, so you can always snag a good price! I created four different photo ... read more
MY WEDDING DRESS: TOP SECRET OR FAMILY AFFAIR?
Hi everyone! One of things I looked forward to the most during my engagement and wedding planning was going shopping to find my dream wedding dress. But with that comes a tough question: WHO should come with you to help you find the one? I don't know about you, but I've never been a big fan of TLC's Say Yes to the Dress... I would occasionally watch the show when there was nothing else on, and I didn't want to watch it when I was in the midst of wedding dress shopping. However, when I did watch the show, I would notice that most brides would bring along their whole family, including their future in laws, and sometimes, even their husband to be! Deciding who to take wedding dress shopping with you is all about assembling a team or in some cases, a single person, that ... read more
5 WEDDING MISHAPS
Hi everyone! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT IS ALMOST CHRISTMAS?! I cannot believe it's a week away! I can't even believe I've been married for almost 3 months... Your wedding day is supposed to be the most perfect day of your life, right? After the crazy amount of planning in the months leading up to that day, you'd think there would be no way anything would go wrong... but little do we know, wedding days have a mind of their own sometimes. To be honest though, my wedding day WAS the most perfect day... despite the several things that went “wrong” on our wedding day…none of which were major issues... more like little surprises that weren’t planned! So here are 5 Wedding Mishaps that happened on my wedding day... OUR GUESTS SAW ME BEFORE I WALKED DOWN THE AISLE Yup, you read that ... read more
THE 5 F’S OF A HAPPY MARRIAGE
Hey everyone!You may or may not have noticed, but I had to undergo a little... actually, a MAJOR damage repair here on the blog. Long story short, I deleted something I shouldn't have and everything got taken down... BUT WE BACK NOW and I am ready to start sharing some wedding bliss, advice, photos, etc, etc with you all! I cannot believe I am already in my second month of marriage - nearing up to our 3rd month very soon too! With that being said, I thought it would be nice to share some words from our wedding ceremony. My hubby and I got married in a Church and our priest shared some very wise words that I really liked. Mind you, I don't remember EXACTLY everything he said, but I remember the gist of it! Of course, our priest said all of these things in a different manner, using ... read more
OUR HONEYMOON WITH PRINCESS CRUISES
Hi everyone! It's been a minute since I've posted on here and that needs to change ASAP! Hubby and I are back from our honeymoon, settling into our new place, and just enjoying married life... or at least getting the hang of it! There have been MANY changes in my life lately, so life has been very busy, hectic, emotional, stressful, frustrating, interesting and fun all at once. I've been feeling all the emotions lately and I'll spill the beans soon, so STAY TUNED! I am currently in the process of editing our honeymoon vlogs and posting them up on our Youtube channel - DACOZZY and everything still feels like a dream to me! I got married almost two months ago (will be two months this Thursday!) and not going to lie, editing these videos and images is brining back all the "feels" and I am ... read more
ONE MONTH MARRIED!
Hi everyone! I'M MARRRRRIED!!!!!! One month ago today, I married my best friend and the love of my life. We have signed on the dotted line, exchanged our vows, had an AMAZING honeymoon and returned back to reality... While it has only been 4 weeks, I already know it was the best decision of my life and it's been so much fun so far! It feels like just yesterday I was writing the “Wedding Week: Reminiscing Over My Engagement” post and still tying together the last minute details of the wedding. Now the wedding has come and gone and I’ve officially had a month of calling Matt “my husband” (which is awesome but so strange at the same time)! I am planning on posting all about my wedding as there is SO MUCH still to talk about, but I wanted to write a post on my thoughts as a newlywed ... read more

I'll let you know how that all turns out! ;) The week leading up to our wedding was one of the most stressful, emotionally draining, but rewarding weeks of my life.

This week on the other hand, went by pretty fast and it's been ... read more
