Mr & Mrs

Yep, thats us...Mr & Mrs Fowler :) I can't believe our wedding day has come and gone! With the whirlwind of planning a wedding in 7 weeks, work, moving and having out of town visitors for over a month and now its all over, just like that.

We could not have asked for a more perfect day! We got married a little over a week ago, July 9th or as Aussies would say 9th July. The weather was beautiful and sunny. It was a little windy, so there was a chill in the air but after all it is winter here. Our ceremony was held at the beautiful Hunter Valley Gardens and our dinner reception was at the Crowne Plaza, both located in the Hunter Valley wine country which is about an hour north of where we live on the Central Coast. Our wedding was small and intimate, exactly how we wanted it. It was such a wonderful weekend for our family and friends to get to spend together and relax. Looking back I'm just amazed that we were able to pull it off in such a short time but also just in awe at how perfectly it all came together! It was truly a perfect day and we have so many memories to look back on and cherish over the next many, many years.

Since the wedding we said goodbye to my family and friends who came out for the wedding. I can't even begin to describe how great it was to have my family here. I can't write too much about it or the tears will start but it was the best thing ever. Now if we could just convince them to move to Australia :) Then Ben and I were off to Tasmania for 5 days for our honeymoon. It was a beautiful, relaxing trip. We came home late Friday night and then were up early on Saturday to get ready for our "post wedding celebration" with all of our family and friends here. That was a wonderful afternoon as well! I can't wait to be able to celebrate again with my family and friends when we come to the states in a few months. We're pretty lucky, getting to celebrate our wedding 3 times. Any excuse to wear my wedding dress for a second time, i'll take :) We are so incredibly blessed to be surrounded by so many amazing people that love and support us, both in Australia and in the US.

Well my sweet hubby is making us breakfast so I better run :) more photos and updates to come!
