Libby James Album Giveaway

Rewind to a couple months ago and I was contacted by Libby James, a company that allows clients to create beautiful, high quality albums without marked-up prices.  If you're married, then you know how expensive wedding albums can be.  Let's be clear here though... this isn't just for brides!  What an amazing album this would make for baby pictures or just to document the captured memories that are closest to your heart.  Whatever the occasion, Libby James allows you to download free album-maker software and have a personal touch in designing the album of your dreams. 

I was so excited to get started in the design process.  Design is what I live for.  I'm also quite fond of my wedding photos and always jump at the chance to see/use them.  I downloaded the Libby James software and got to work super quickly.  You just choose your album (which are all priced very well!), upload all of your photos into the software and start placing the photos into the layouts.  Don't worry if you aren't very design-savvy because you can have as much or as little control as you'd like in terms of where the photos are placed (thanks to the automatic options).  I finished my album and BOOM POW! ...a few days later it was on my doorstep.  See the pretty box and cover it has?

I chose the 10x10 Onyx album with 10 spreads.  Look at the beautiful leather and thick pages.

The layout options are endless.  You can create your own photo boxes or use the suggested layouts.

The quality is amazing and the entire process was seamless.  The fun part for you happens now.  Libby James has agreed to give one of you your very own 10x10 Onyx album (a $165 value)!  Let's get this giveaway started...

In case you're wondering, my wedding photos were done by the wonderful and talented Marni Rothschild.

Our Wedding Video!

I can't thank you enough for all of the sweet comments and emails after my post on Friday.  You all are just amazing!  I really appreciate the prayers and the stories many of you shared about similar situations you or a family member has been through.  You definitely made me feel more at ease in many ways.  So THANK YOU, again!

On a much, much lighter note... I have something exciting to share with you!  This is our wedding video, which was done by the fabulous Remedy Wedding Films.  I booked them right after we got engaged, well over a year before our wedding.  They are just a top-notch group of people... the perfect blend of professionalism and personality.  When you're spending almost your entire wedding day with a videographer, I feel like it's so important to feel completely comfortable around that person (In my case, it was Jamie -the owner/cinematographer & his beautiful wife, Jennifer!).  I couldn't be more happy with the talents they shared with us.  We will forever treasure this video!

This video contains, by far, the happiest moments of my life and I'm so excited to share it with you.

This is it, folks!  The last wedding photos post.  Thanks for your patience as I've gotten through all of these.  Hope you've enjoyed a peek into the most special day of our lives. 

 Our band was beyond perfect.  I would HIGHLY recommend The Mighty Kicks to anyone in SC searching for a wedding band that keeps your crowd on the dance floor all night.

 At the very end of my dad's speech, he told Brandon that he had a gift for him that was going to come in a LOT of handy now that he is married to me...  a whole sleeve of credit cards for him to activate!  Very funny, Dad.

Our reception was probably the most fun I've ever had.  It went by in a flash though.  It's crazy how they say you won't remember your wedding when it's over.  It definitely is a whirlwind of a day.  Although it's a little fuzzy, I really tried to take in every moment.  

Hope you enjoyed the photos! Xo.
