May 21 Anniversary of Our Wedding at the Cottage

Today is the anniversary of our wedding here at our tiny cottage!

Adam and I had been engaged for years, but it wasn’t until we decided to say our vows here at home that the celebration seemed financially + logistically doable, and right for us.

By the time we got around to it, I was 20 weeks pregnant with West, and I love looking back at the photos and videos from this day and knowing that our little one was with us.

Our family and friends stood or sat all around us— in the garden, within the house, and along the porch.

It was a simple, beautiful and happy day.

“Whitney's eye for detail and her spirit of beauty creates a space that fills the visitor with warmth and welcome. I am deeply envious of her ability to curate aesthetically and tactically satisfying environments. I have tried to emulate this but trust me it is a rare talent. She is a rare talent.” - Amy Adams
