Ever After

When we left off yesterday, we were all smiles! Thomas made all the dinner reservations for the weekend (something that I love that he loves to do!) so he had a special dinner at Kimball’s Kitchen planned. We got all dressed up and found a pretty dock across the way to take a few photos.

I had just bought this little tripod and remote on the recommendation of Thomas’s mom (not related to the engagement, but I’m so glad I got it beforehand!) and we were able to take some pretty pics.

Reenactment, as you know, but still sweet! (My dress is an oldie from Mahi Gold and my shoes are new from Target!)

The sky!!

Blooper!!

Our dinner at Kimball’s was awesome. Thomas had called ahead for champagne, which I thought was really sweet, but they forgot! Not a problem though, because the service was great and we started the night with two glasses on the house.

For dinner, we had raw oysters (our favorite!).

A watermelon and heirloom tomato salad (with goat cheese!).

And for the entree, swordfish with chimichurri and veggies.

Creme brûlée for dessert!

On Sunday, we had oatmeal for breakfast with blueberries and good coffee. The little cups we found at Harris Teeter were so convenient!

We spent the day by the beach and pool, which had the most comfortable lounge chairs imaginable!

Lunch was fish tacos on the beach!

I found these little Bota Minis at Harris Teeter too, a to-go version of the popular Bota Box, and they are so great for a beach visit. No glass, and easily re-closed.

We also did a repeat of our engagement walk to visit the spot again!

The storm clouds rolled in, so we did some reading indoors and had cocktail hour on our balcony!

The clouds parted and we had a little walk on the beach before dinner.

We had another dinner at the Lifesaving Station — it’s really good there!

The Crab-Stuffed Flounder and Shrimp and Grits were soooo good!

We had such an amazing weekend filled with near-perfect weather and the most romantic accommodation. Cheers to ever after!

      Awesome to hear! We are considering it as a wedding location, but I think the distance has it not at the top of the list.

        Oh my gosh, I thought I read yesterday in the comments that you are getting married this fall but do you mean next fall? I’m planning my wedding currently – we’re two months away! – and venues book up so fast! Some even a year+ in advance! Do you already have a place booked?

          This fall! We’re looking at Sundays (partly for this reason) and think we have a venue but haven’t booked it yet.

    Kath, I am beyond thrilled for you. I actually recommended your blog to one of my friends who is going through a divorce (it too is amicable). I found your perspective healthy and felt that she might like you said (she also strives to live healthy so I figured she would like that part as well).

    I recommend October for a wedding. Weather is so perfect and the Fall colors make everything so beautiful! (And I might be biased 😉 )

    Congrats on finding happiness! Question and if it’s too personal no problem. How is Matt’s relationship with Thomas in regards to Mazen and the role Thomas plays in Mazen’s life? Can’t remember if you discussed this before.

      Well you’d have to ask Matt, but I think everyone is as friendly as possible and things are going as to be expected.

    Awwwe, you two are so cute! I love happy couples, and it’s clear that you two are very happy, and very in love. My husband and I fell in love very, very quickly, and now after five years together, and we still get giddy on the way home from work because we’re so excited to see each other. I think you’ve found that kind of love …
