  • Hi Nicholas!  Sorry for sounding exclusive when I wrote "fiancé's (or hubby's)" and not also "fiancées (or wife's)".  Thanks for posting!  I loved your bio!  I saw some of the sites you and your FI use for inspiration, and thought I'd mention to the vintage and diy weddings on [url]www.oncewed.com[/url]Nice to meet you!
