Wedding Week III: It is Baaaaaack

Yup, our third annual Wedding Week is upon us thanks to our upcoming anniversary this Wednesday. And it is hard to believe that yet another year has flown by, especially since our Hands-on backyard wedding (held right here at Casa Petersik on 7.7.07) still feels like it was yesterday.

Of course most of you have already read all about our wedding by clicking that tab under our journal header, and we have used Wedding Week I and Wedding Week II to describe things like our courtship, our engagement, and our honeymoon in detail. We even divulged home related Hands-on projects, like how I dyed my wedding dress…

…and how we commemorated our nuptials with a shadow box filled with wedding paraphernalia. We also mentioned some lively anniversary traditions, like when we recreated the same meal that our guests enjoyed at our wedding for our first anniversary…

… and went out to eat at the restaurant where we had our rehearsal dinner for our second anniversary. In fact, here is a swift and dirty rundown of all the wedding related posts that we have already covered:

  • Here is our big wedding page full of Hands-on details
  • Here is how I dyed my wedding dress so I can wear it again & again
  • Here is how we met, fell in love, and got hitched
  • Here is the story of John’s proposal
  • Here is the play by play of our Alaskan honeymoon (with Burger!)
  • Here is how we created our wedding shadow box
  • Here is how our wedding beverages were reimagined as hostess gifts
  • Here is our little anniversary tradition
  • Here is the place where we nearly said “I do” (before switching to our backyard)

And since we have already touched on a whole lotta wedding-related stuff in these posts of yore, we are doing our best to keep things exciting this time around. This week you can look forward to:

  • A lively wedding-themed giveaway (that is also for non-engaged & already-married folks)
  • A post about how we solve decorating disagreements
  • A romantic bedroom mood board for anyone who wants to feather their enjoy nest
  • A roundup of Hands-on home decor that we whipped up to commemorate special moments
  • A post about the gifts we exchanged this year
  • A post about how we expanded upon our anniversary tradition

Sure, it is a little bit self-indulgent and some of the deets are a tad unrelated to home improvement, but we’d like to think that our relationship is an essential part of what makes Turbodizin tick. So we hope you will enjoy this week’s lovey-dovey detour with us (do not worry, we will still be dishing out some of the usual home-related stuff too). As we like to say so frequently around these parts, stay tuned…
