Hello Readers!
July went by in a flash! I can't believe our wedding day came and gone. We shared so many memories that evening with friends and family. It was a wonderful evening filled with joy and love.
Weddings are such joyous occasions that surround and embrace you with good vibrations and togetherness. I want to thank my friends and family for showering us with amazing gifts and a night we will always remember. My wedding planners, photographer, and wedding band were magnificent! If there was advice I could give a bride-to-be, I would say, relax and let everything just flow. That is exactly what I did. This event unfolded the way it was meant to. The only time I thought I was going to ball my eyes out is when my dad kissed me on the cheek at the alter! I kept it together;)
My bridesmaids were beautiful and the wedding venue looked stunning! I think I was going for a formal romantic evening affair. I was imagining candlelight, chandeliers, and an old ballroom vibe. The flowers were white with a tinge of vintage pink roses and antique silver place settings with gold chairs and gold lined plates.
Jacquelyn Kennedy is an icon of mine and I had this picture in my head of her lighting a candle for a formal dinner at the White House. I think the recreation went all as planned. Here are some pictures of the wedding. These aren't the photographers photos, so I'm waiting to post those as soon as they are finished.
My dress was a Legends Ramona Kreveza gown I found in Belle Meade at a boutique called b. Hughes Bridal in Nashville, TN. I knew it was the one as soon as I put it on. I think my favorite accessory was my chapel length lace veil, and a borrowed pearl bracelet my best girlfriend let me use. My sister bought me the Mr. And Mrs. Kate Spade clutch as a wedding gift. It has such meaning that it resembles a New York license plate. I love it!
The night went by in a flash! Professional photos to post! San Juan Honeymoon pics as well!
