wedding anniversary
This past weekend Ryan and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary in a sweet little B&B in New Hope, PA. I can’t believe it’s been a year since we got hitched! Everyone says how quickly time goes by and it’s true – I seriously still can’t believe that I’ve known Ryan for 13 years, that we’ve been together for 12, and that we’ve been married for one. In all the years we’ve been together, and all the little getaways we’ve been on, this weekend was one of my favorite trips. Ryan describes the teeny city of New Hope an “idyllic” place and I couldn’t think of a better word. The main street runs parallel to the Delaware River and is lined with art galleries, antique stores, and quaint restaurants. Not even threats of a Nor’easter, flooding or torrential downpours could ruin this.
We spent our first day doing a wine tour and visiting local vineyards. We learned the process of making champagne, which wines pair best with chocolate or cheese, and how to properly drink a glass. That night we window shopped in the rain, and had a romantic candlelit dinner chatting about how quickly the past year has gone and what we hope to do this upcoming year.
Each day we woke up super early excited to eat breakfast and start the day. We spent hours antique shopping, visiting a local museum, eating and drinking. Most of the trip was based around what we were going to eat at our next meal. :) We both just love the area and can’t wait to go back!
