isnt it funny how seemingly terrible things (“failed” relationships) allow you actually become more open and more adult when your opportunities truly rise? those trials leave little cracks on your heart, but its those little cracks that finally allow all of that beautiful light to spill out. risk is a brave thing.

sorry to be a creeper! i related to this so much, you guys are the cutest.

Hi Tara! Thank you SO MUCH for sharing your story. You’ve got it so right. Being present for this moment is so much more important than all the puffery. Cheers to you and your marriage! You’re off to a great start already.

I’ve just stumbled upon your world, and I’m so glad I did. Your Instagram account is one of the best I’ve ever seen. (P.S., I also gained weight before my wedding. I got married young, and I was just so incredibly happy/excited that it didn’t occur to me to diet! Of course, later, I realized that everyone seems to think that a bride needs to lose major weight for her wedding, and since then I’ve stupidly felt bad about myself for “not having it together enough” to just lose the 5-10 pounds. Thank you for reminding me of what I already know, which is, DUH, your happiness is so much more important than any stupid wedding detail! You look happy, healthy, glowing, and gorgeous — and dammit, so did I! Really excited to discover more of your content. Thanks so much for sharing.)

I was divorced two years ago, and have often felt very sad about the idea that I might not ever feel comfortable re-marrying in a beautiful or public way. You’re right, divorce changes the meaning of marriage, and I am still struggling with the idea that lives are messy, but not embarrassing. Thank you for posting this, it makes me feel just little bit more hopeful for myself, and gives me a sense of what it is to take that plunge the second time around. 🙂

i had such dismissive, unhealthy relationships before i met Mark. but looking back, all of that had to happen so i could experience the difference between a healthy relationship and an unhealthy one. i had such an appreciation for him early on, because he was so different!

best wishes! you looked amazing! <3 <3

What a sweet, touching, lovely post this was. In addition to thinking you’re just, well, the coolest for all the great design/fashion/etc. things you post, I also admire you and your prose so much when you talk about more serious/personal issues.

Basically, this post made me smile. Here’s to you two!

I love how you focused on the marriage and not the wedding- using the few short weeks on the upcoming realities you will both face as a couple. I wish you and Joe the best of luck in this new chapter of your life. I can’t wait to toast to the two of you soon.

Lots of love!

The first was so painful and heartbreaking and being alone was safe. I wasn’t going to get married again! Then I realized it wasn’t about never again, it was about the right person. And I’m so grateful for him and the life we’ve built together.

Congratulations to you!
