Where in the world to get married?

The possibilities are endless. Where you live, where you're from, where you went to school, where he's from, where you met, a Caribbean island...

I could never consider a destination wedding for myself. For me, the distance disconnects me from the process. I am detail oriented and a planner by nature and I was way too excited to be a part of it all.
Although - I adore beach wedding pictures.

I was dating Mr. Bliss for several years before we became engaged and I, like any other normal girly girl in love, pictured my wedding in my head. I live in New York City and envisioned a classic Manhattan wedding. Ceremony at St. Patrick's, wedding photos in Central Park, my bridesmaids helping me carry my dress across the city streets...

It would have been fun, but I am a classic bride-to-be. I asked Mr. Bliss if we could get married in my hometown - in a historic, renovated mansion on a tree-lined river. I'll walk down the aisle in the church I've always belonged to and get ready for the big day in the bedroom I grew up in. My family is all still there and there is a feeling of comfort going "home".
