It's the end of the month, which means it's time for APW weddings and anniversaries (details on how to get involved at the bottom of the post!) It's always such a joy to end the month this way, cheering for all of you about to get hitched, but more than that celebrating all of the married couples. Because marriage is what it's all about. That, and the awesome Team Practical community!

I can’t believe June is almost here already! I’m so stoked for all the June 4th weddings! (And also for our wedding-stress-free honeymoons afterwards!)

I needed these happies today. Congrats to the weds and to-be weds.
(And Ariel! There you are!)
(And Darcy! We’d love to see you at the meetup next weekend — although I suppose that the meetup is on your anniversary weekend and all . . . ;) )

Yes, congrats Darcy :)
And I’m horribly shallow, but aren’t our APW brides are all freaking fabulously gorgeous? So many pretty faces.

Alas, I cannot attend the Toronto meetup because we have picked up an moved to Saskatchewan!! It is only slightly ironic we get possession of our new apartment on our anniversary and it is only a 5 minute walk away from where our wedding took place. Ah, life loves throwing you curve balls.

Thanks so much for the nice comment, Meg! Maggie rocks — she’s been talking about doing an APW grad post since before she got her photos back.

I’m a June 4th bride too! :) I haven’t been here in awhile because I’ve been so busy! I’m excited, and not really nervous although the idea of the crowd of people freaks me out a little.

Kevin’s been having the same stress. Remember, though, in theory, each of these people who will be there are people that you would easily hang out with in a small group. (Well, okay, weddings do sometimes involve people you wouldn’t but… nevermind them.) There’s no difference when it’s just all of you in a big group. These are your best people and there all there because they love you. So long as you don’t go nuts and get mean, you’re in good shape!

Here I was, briefly thinking “man, thats a lot of weddings for this time of year”, when I realised that its coming in to summer up there…
Sorry, having been away to the snow this weekend has made me forgetful!
Congratulations and good luck to all :)

Oh noes! I was so busy wedding/honeymoon planning that APW fell by the wayside (how’s that for irony?) and I forgot to email Alyssa about my upcoming June 25th wedding to Evan. Congrats to all the other June brides & calming, blissful thoughts to all!
