Awwww, thank you so much Janet. I paid 10 dollars for my dress ;)

[DianaB]

Your wedding turned out really lovely!!! You look so beautiful in your dress!!! The cake and tables, everything looks very nice!! You did a really nice job getting everything together!!!! I'm sure that you have wonderful memories of your special day!!

[pope1982]

I do. Too many things to count didn't go as planned but I remembered to just look at my husband and listen to the wonderful things he was saying to me and it was easy to let the things out of my control go. Not to say I didn't come close to flipping out a couple times :p

My southern 87 year old grandmother (the one in the picture with me) was so proud when my dad told her I planned it all myself, she couldn't stop bragging! About a week before the wedding, she had what they believe to be a stroke, but she told everyone "come hell or high water I am dancing at my grand daughters wedding." And she sure did! She got out on the dance floor and schooled everyone on how to properly do the twist :eek:

Awwww, what nice pictures!! Looks like everything went very well. You are beautiful, and I love your dress!!!! You planned this for so long and it looks like it all came off so nice!! Wishing you much happiness!!

Wow! Mrs. V - you look stunning! That dress is perfect, and fits you beautifully.
I love your hair, your makeup and your jewelry. I also love that your earring looks exactly like a beauty mark.

How was the music when you and your Dad danced? Which song did you pick for your first dance? (I need to know everything!!!)

Mr. V looks mighty cute too, and very, very happy.

I doubt if it mattered that some things went wrong - it looks like the perfect wedding! Well - maybe not serving the cake, but you got to eat cake instead of bread.

:2party: :love048: Congratulations to both of you,:love048::2party:
:40: :heart: and wishes for a long, happy, healthy life together.:heart::40:

My sister sent me the pictures off her camera. I know there were those curious about the ceremony

[pope1982]

From what I hear the girls walked sooo quickly to the alter :rolleyes:

[pope1982]

My brothers and the wonderful women of their lives

[pope1982]

The cake cutting was Nina Simone "want a little sugar in my bowl" so we were getting naughty

[pope1982]

Just a few favorite candids

[Janet]

The pictures are so great! I really like your bridesmaid dresses. Everything looked wonderful!

[DianaB]

I had totally forgotten that you were getting married at the aquarium! The pictures didn't really show the dolphins (?) in the background. Your hair and dress look absolutely fabulous!!!

[pope1982]

Janet, I really think they looked lovely and their confidence showed!
I gave them the color plum to work with, which is a variety of shades and at first they were completely freaking out because they had no idea what to look for. But in the end, they loved their dresses and I hope they appreciated their own unique style and individuality, rather than being stuffed into a style I liked and didn't flatter all of them.

My youngest sister, the one with the long dark hair, was apologizing to me because I "had to do her makeup on my wedding day", and I picked her hairstyle. Oh please, I live for that stuff! Plus I think I had her looking pretty hot... her fiance' was so pleased.

Diana, hopefully the photographer captured our show stopping curious dolphin who hovered by the bridesmaids and watched a few moments of our ceremony. He was one of the things I am sure no one will forget.
I am sure he had to have gotten some amazing shots, the dolphins swam and swam by, they helped me to regain my composure when I felt myself getting too emotional at the priests words and the realization of it all.

[DianaB]

Oh, I'm glad to hear that you did get some pictures of the dolphins!!! That makes your wedding so unique!! I can't wait to see the picts!!!
