We are beyond thrilled to announce Jeanine Tegano Collins as a contributing writer for theBrideScoop.  Jeanine and her husband of a year live in Las Vegas.

Jeanine is a dreamer and lover of all things impossible and magical… sometimes making the normalcies of day-to-day life less than enthralling.  Thankfully, she has a loving husband who reminds her of the virtues of reality.  To understand the space between the fairy tale and reality – of life and marriage – she writes.  When she’s not writing, Jeanine is busy dancing with her high school students.

Jeanine says, “I love how theBrideScoop is expanding to address the varied aspects of weddings and married life.  I was sort of the anti-bride:  small wedding, inattention to details, mostly concerned with the big picture – what happens next?  Whether you’re into every last detail or simply marking a moment of a new beginning, I think every bride wants to know how the fairytale will play out. I am excited to explore that in bridescoop world with so many talented writers.”

Check back every Monday for a glimpse of life after honeymoon and to get to know Jeanine, please follow her on twitter or friend her on facebook.
