New Blog Name!!

Now that we are married I thought it was time to change our URL from McIntosh wedding to something m,ore relevant. So ere it is. Our new blog address (well really mine since Mac doesn't, and has no desire to, post):





I'm not entirely familiar with how these changes work, so if you are still interested in following, make sure the new address switched over and if you have us (well me) listed in a blog roll, you might want to see that the address is corrected on there as well. Thanks all. 

Oh! And for those of you who don't FB stalk me, I have a fun new announcement to share once I get pictures! Stay Tuned!

xoxo,
Samantha

I love our videographer - Highlight video in post!

Throughout the wedding planning process I received so many tips and suggestions I really didn't know what to do with them all. While most of them were beyond useful both while planning and the day of, one of the best suggestions I ever had was to use Mike Howard from Memories Through Time as our videographer.

Not only was he the best deal in town, but he also had the best work I had seen. I only spoke with him a few times prior to the wedding and he delivered above and beyond what I could have ever hoped for. His wife, Amanda, helped get footage of the ceremony, which was not in our contract, nor expected, and he stayed so much longer than we had hired him for, just to make sure he got enough footage for the video and let me tell you, he did :) Apparently we are currently the record-breaking video at 30 minutes long! We get all of the raw footage from the and a pretty set of dvds tying it all into a fun video highlighting the best parts of our day.

Then last night I received an email saying the videos are ready and there was a sneak peek of a condensed version of our video on his blog so I of course had to watch and I am in love with it. It is perfect. I honestly don't think I could have asked for anything better and this isn't even the whole thing. I still have 10 minutes or so left to see. Thank you so so so so much Mike and Amanda. I couldn't have made a better choice than Memories Through Time.

1 year ago...

I can't believe that 1 year ago Mac asked me to be his wife.


This past year has been a whirlwind of fun and emotions. We've been through a lot this past year with layoffs followed by new jobs, planning and having our wedding, supporting Mac while he trained for a marathon and ultimately decided to drop down to the half this time around, engagements of friends and family and so many other fabulous times that I 1-Can't believe it has only been a year while 2-can't believe it has ALREADY been a year.I know, a bit contradictory, but I'm sure those of you who have planned a wedding know exactly what I mean.


Life is full of such great and momentous experiences and I am so lucky that I have someone as wonderful as Mac to stand by me every day for the rest of my life. For those of you who missed it - here is the video of the day Mac proposed at his families' cabin.


For those who haven't watched the video - you may want to fast forward through the 3 minutes of charades that are at the beginning and turn our speakers kind of down, I get shriek-y :) Thanks for following the blog and checking out this post!

Samantha
