Top 15 of 2015 | Instagram Snaps


Last year I recounted my top 14 of 2014 & this year I wanted to continue the fun, but showcase it via instagram




15// Wedding Fun


We attended three super fun weddings this year & I clearly did not shy away from color!




14// Celebrated my 28th birthday




13// Was snowed in more times than I care to remember – just hoping the start of 2016 doesn’t bring the same!


Notice the bottle of wine – that’s how we chilled it 🙂






12// Took a fabulous trip to my favorite U.S. city with my blogging loves – Pamela & Amanda

11// Had an epic trip with my sister to Florida! 

10/ Knocked another city of my U.S. travel list by visiting New Orleans

9// Baked my first (and let’s be quite honest probably only) macaroon and crossed that one off the 30 before 30 list! 

8// Tried my hand at some fashion posts – hoping to incorporate more next year

7// Celebrated this little space with a 2 year blogiversary

6//Celebrated the opening of City Target in Boston – my weekends have been forever changed!

5// Worked with two amazing brides to help plan two incredible weddings

4// Started playing tennis again – if only for the summer! 

Which means I knocked off another one of my 30 before 30!
 

3// Celebrated Gary graduating with his masters! 

2// Went to Puerto Rico to celebrate our 2nd wedding anniversary

1// Launched my event planning business 

My biggest accomplishment this year was launching my dream business – it was a long road, but already having brides for 2016 solidifies that it was the best personal / business decision! 

What were some of your favorite memories of 2015? Are we following each other on instagram (@blovedboston)? 

Finally – I’d like to wish you all an incredible New Year!! I hope the rest of the week is filled with excitement for everyone!! Thank you so much for all the support in 2015! Looking forward to seeing what everyone got up to in the first Weekending post of 2016 on Monday!!

    They are opening a city Target right down the street from me and I can't wait. Those macaroons look so good! My favorite 2016 memory is buying my first home.. Never thought I'd actually buy a place, but I took the plunge this past year!
