The Story Behind Your Happily Ever After

The cat's finally out of the bag – Jordan & Matt are the newest Mr. & Mrs. Hudspith! Their wedding was absolutely beautiful. And now I can share a few snapshots of their custom storybook!

My favorite part of designing their book was definitely their infamous meeting at Buffalo Wild Wings! To give you a little more background, it was Matt's first day back on the job. They happened to run out of regular men's jersey's, so Matt was given a size small women's jersey (hence the mid-drift action). Cue Jordan walking in, laughing with friends, and asking "What is wrong with that guy?!" True love right from the start ;) 

Congratulations again Mr. & Mrs. Hudspith, and enjoy!

You And Me, Happily Blog Welcome

HELLO THERE, I'M SO GLAD YOU STOPPED BY!  

I am so incredibly excited to announce the launch of You and Me, Happily! This little website will hopefully make a big impact in helping people capture and hold onto memories forever. We're all about wonderful background stories here, so I guess it's only fitting if I tell the story of how You and Me, Happily started!

HOW IT BEGAN

Once upon a time, my best friend of 15+ years got engaged. I knew I had to come up with an extraordinary wedding gift because of our crazy close friendship -- monogrammed towels or another set of cute coffee mugs just wouldn't do. I tried to brainstorm something that we both have always loved, and that's where happily ever afters came up. But I didn't know where to go from there. Then, that night I literally had a dream that it was the day of her wedding. She had an on-the-spot story book illustrator (do those even exist?!) to make storybooks for the guests. I woke up and thought, "Wow!! Wouldn't it be wonderful if someone could create a story book for Jordan & Matt, to tell their happily every after? That would be the perfect wedding gift!!" I searched and searched with no luck...until the lightbulb moment. If it doesn't exist, why not make it exist? And so You and Me, Happily was born! 

 

As I begin this adventure into the world of story telling, illustrating, and happily ever afters, I just want to thank you for your support! I am so eager to take this step with you, and capture some lifelong memories on paper. 

MUCH LOVE,

Michelle
