I like reading the Sunday paper with a good cup of coffee while my boyfriend husband makes us pancakes, sitting around for hours drinking beer - preferably outdoors - with my best friends, and watching old movies on the couch with my cat, The Monster. In the winter, I snowboard as much as I can, but I'm still not that good at it. In the summer, I eat lots of gelato, and that, I am very good at. I like to live simply, but I also like stuff, so I'm trying to reconcile those things.
Swoon started out as a wedding blog - a place to vent as I attempted to plan a simple, pretty and sane wedding in a sea of crazy - and now it's become a catch-all for my whims du jour.
I still love looking at photos of weddings, especially those with lots of handmade details that celebrate the important stuff. If you're interested in sharing your photos, email me at swoononline{at}gmail.com.
xoxo,
Giovanna
