It’s a couple of months since our wedding on September 3rd and just last week over 3500(!) photos from our photographer arrived. I’ve shared a few of them on Flickr, along with some honeymoon snaps we took ourselves.

Huge thanks to Sara Mazzei at Infinity Weddings & Events for organising everything. From helping us find the venue to all the little details on the day, Sara and her team made everything work perfectly. I can’t recommend Infinity Weddings highly enough.

We had an amazing day and the ‘road trip’ holiday of a lifetime. Sitting here in cold, dark Dublin it all seems so long ago! I can’t believe its been over six months since my last post! I’m pretty sure that getting married, taking a holiday and planning a move are all good excuses. More soon…

As many of you know, I got engaged last year, and plans are under way for our wedding to be held in Tuscany, this September. Over Christmas I got to finish building our wedding website, septemberthethird.com. Hopefully it will help our guests in making travel arrangements and booking accommodation.

I stuck with a single, scrolling page design (to keep things simple) that also works well on mobile devices. For those interested, the site is built with;

• jQuery (via Google’s CDN)
• Cufon, (with Gotham Medium)
• ColorBox (for the photo gallery light-box)
• Microformats (for event, location & contacts)
• Google maps & Google analytics
• Some CSS3 (for link transitions)

(We’re even sending our Save the date messages using MailChimp!)

Just a quick post to announce that about one month ago Elisa and I got engaged in Florence, Italy. Here are a few photos from our trip.

We managed to pick up this little ring in Damiani (who were very helpful in getting it re-sized before we left —thanks to Mr. Filippo Gossi). We liked Florence so much, we might even consider having the wedding there! We visited the Tuscan countryside on a couple of Vespa scooters and saw plenty of great locations.
