Chelsea Clinton Wedding Coincidences

What does the
Chelsea Clinton & Marc Mezvinsk wedding,
Bill & Hillary Clinton wedding,
and the Todd & Sarah Gill wedding
all have in common?

Amongst other things, really unique timing.

Chelsea Clinton was married yesterday and my wedding anniversary is next week on August 11th – the very same day that former president Bill Clinton will be in Fayetteville, Arkansas stopping by the very same house where Todd and I were married three years ago to the day. Of course Bill and Hillary were married there too, which is what brings the coincidences full circle.

Check out this article on politicsdaily.com about it all:
Bill Clinton’s Marital Tips to Newlyweds

The letter Bill Clinton wrote to us…

Chelsea’s looked a tad bit different.

Cheers, Bill!

(no. 1) Getting Married

This top ten list is in no particular order, but I just can’t help but start with my wedding day.

I was never the girl who dreamed of the perfect wedding day, but the moment I first saw Todd playing on stage with Lucero, I whispered in my girlfriend’s ear, “I’m going to marry that guy.” A few years later, my very first thought was confirmed. After a couple years of dating, Todd proposed to me in Eureka Springs. Thanks to the support of our amazing family and friends, we were able to have a wedding that truly fit us. Isn’t that what it’s all about, anyway? Our “ultra casual” wedding (as the invite states) was my favorite day of the decade, if not my life.

I love September.

I have been insane-o busy lately with school. Besides my fourth semester of German (ich bin nicht gut), I am taking all upper level journalism courses that are very time consuming. On top of that, it’s finally time to start working on my senior paper.

Fantasy Football is also attempting to take over the few free hours that I do have. So far I lost my first match up, but it’s still crazy addictive. I can’t complain though, I did choose one guy because his last name is McAlister and I love love love to eat at McAlister’s. Anyways, go team Cuddly Kittens!

Next week I’ll be in Key West for Katie’s wedding and then a few weeks after that Laura & I are going to Vegas. I can’t wait for either trip, especially since I missed out on the big adventure to Kansas City this weekend. Somewhere in-between Florida and Nevada I turn a year older too. So not fun anymore.

I have a few exciting things to report…

+ Bittersweet Styles was in the newspaper a couple days ago in California.
You can read the full article here.

+ We were also featured on my friend Jazzi’s fashion blog!
Jazzi is a stylist in LA/NY who is also a contributer for Teen Vogue (at almost age 27, one of my major guilty pleasures).

+ Laura & I did a fun little photoshoot for Mason’s for this month’s issue of Citiscapes…

+ Of course I have more wedding photos to share as well. I’m just going to post a few of my favorites because I uploaded all of them on my Flickr account a while back.

+ I’ll end with some photos from lately…

Too cute…

Todd built us a Chill Zone

As my grandma would say, “That’s all she wrote.”
