Zach and Jennifer got married at a simple church ceremony in Jen's hometown almost two years ago. They had about forty-five relatives and thirty friends at the ceremony.

Two weeks ago thier first child, Carlisa Rosaleen, was born.

It's been a little over a year since Jack and I were married. We had the ceremony back in Boston, since all of my family were there. It was absolutely beautiful, as it was autumn and all of the leaves were changing colors. For our honeymoon, we spent two weeks traveling around Italy (Venice was my favorite!). And then it was back home to London, where we had just bought a flat together.
Just five months after the wedding, we found out we were expecting an addition to our family. Fast forward seven months, and we welcomed our beautiful daughter Isabelle into the world. Jack's mother Elizabeth had recently gotten the news that she had cancer, and so we decided to name our little girl after her. In many ways, she is just like her father, but there is some of me in there as well. She is very calm -- just like Daddy -- and doesn't cry a lot, but when she wants something, she'll definitely let you know it (this she must have inherited from Mommy). Jack and I are absolutely in awe of our daughter, and we can't wait to see what life has in store for us.

The swaying trees of Maple Woods Park served as the back drop for our perfect wedding. Even the light sprinkle of rain half way through the ceremony did little to dampen our spirits! Looking back on that day and I can see that the little "imperfections" that had bugged me at the time were really nothing. Our family and friends were there to celebrate our love in civil ceremony, and that's all that mattered. We had our reception in the The Boutique, a club that was shutting down. We realized it was a little unconventional, but it's where Davey and I first met. Plus the fact that we saved a lot on the local helped too. A lot of friends in attendance had been there before, and I found that it made everyone so much more comfortable to be in a familiar place. I couldn't have hoped for a better day! We went to Cuba for a honeymoon, and it was so wonderful. The food, the beach, the room! Davey had a little bout of food poisoning, however. And our return flight was delayed for 5 hours. Still, I'm trying to ignore the negatives, and focus on the wonderful two weeks we had.

DD: Bethan Eilish Isabella (newborn)
It's been two years now since our beautiful wedding. Although all we could afford was do in our church hall after the ceremony it was just perfect, we had both wanted to get married and start our family quickly. The party was lovely. All our family and friends pulled together so that in the end, all we had to pay for was the church fee, the hiring of the hall, the flowers, Maddy's dress, Danny's kilt outfit and a bridesmaid dress for Kate, Maddy's maid of honour. Our flowergirl Lucie already had a dress to wear. Everyone brought platters of nibbles to eat adn in the end there was far too much food to be used up. Maddy and her youngers siblings with their friends and some of Maddy's, had a great time tidying up and decorating the hall. It was gorgeous with streamers and balloons everywhere!
After the wedding we went for a week in the south of France where the weather was beautiful. Then we returned to our brand new home together. Due to saving on the wedding and saving as much money as possible we had been stunned to see how much we could actually afford. We rent a beautiful new-build modern flat in the centre of Edinburgh. It's in a lovely area, only a few minutes away from a supermarket, Princes Street, parks, schools, both of our work and our university. We're so lucky to of found the place! Our landlord and lady are lovely as well. They live in the penthouse of the building (it has 6 flats and the penthouse, they own the whole building) and they hold little parties and barbecues for all the residents.
