I can’t believe we said ‘yes’ so long ago on Lake Como, but what a magical, enchanting day it was! ✨👰🏻🤵🏻On the other hand, today was super relaxing. We were both exhausted after a busy two weeks so it was great to take a little walk in the woods in the rain and talk about our journey so far. So many memories and so many more to make! …But for now, it’s time to snuggle up at home, eat some good food and watch some good TV! I love you more than you’ll ever know.”
