Wedding Recap- Pics XP

My husband(!) and I are truly very blessed. We had a beautiful Nuptial Mass almost two weeks ago. I don’t know if you all remember, but we had issues getting our families and a priest on board. Two nights before we were slated to get married the deployed Priest gets back from TDY and he is more than willing to perform the ceremony. He told my husband there is absolutely no reason why two Catholics shouldn’t have a full mass and he performed the ceremony for free. He is truly amazing. I wish we could attend mass on the AF base to see him more often. Our non-Catholic parents performed the readings and didn’t complain too much. Even my VERY anti-Catholic aunt said that she couldn’t find anything “unbiblical” about the ceremony which is the highest compliment coming from her. I think it was a first step in our families accepting our choices. They all found the ceremony very spiritual and beautiful. Below are some pictures.

 

Flowers- My grandparents wedding rings were my something old.

 

My favorite picture

 

Kissing under the church bell. We have so many pick up pictures.

 

Some love from my husband in Mary's Garden

    I'm a lurker here, but one thing caught my eye... your shoes, what kind are they?... I'm looking for not-too-high heels, as FI is only 2 inches taller than me.

    Those are beautiful pictures.

    More imporantly, I'm so, so glad that things worked out well with the priest (God certainly provided in that department) and that your family had a good experience. I pray that they come around to accepting your choices -- and maybe someday accept the truth themselves.

    Congrats!!

    <div>I got them from David's Bridal. The "name" of the shoe is Kyra. I really thought they were comfortable, but they did make the flip flop sound and it drove my dad crazy. I thought they were great little shoes.</div>

    Thank you everyone. We truly were blessed all the way around. We truly felt the love of our families and Father on our day. We're really happy it went so smoothly and we are so in love and overflowing with gratitude.

    Thanks! I'm trying to avoid flats, but also was concerned with some styles i've seen for that "flip flop sound". Fortunately the aisle at my church is relatively short :)
