Back (7 weeks later...) and married!!

Okay, worst knottie ever right here!!!  I got married September 17th, and seriously HAD to take a break from weddings for a while :)  I didn't mean for it to be this long, but wow does time fly!  I used the Knot soooo much for planning my wedding, so I had to pull some time together and get my reviews up - hopefully they will be helpful to someone else!

Anyway, I'm married!!  Our day was lovely :)  It was 65 and mostly sunny in the morning and early afternoon, then got a bit overcast by the time our outdoor wedding started - but no rain!!  The lighting was perfect for pictures (so I'm told) and I was neither too hot or cold all day.  Weather success!!!

The day as a whole was fabulous.  I won't say that it was flawless, but it was pretty darn good.  There were a few hiccups (for instance the banquet manager was in a car accident the day before -she's fine- and didn't come, and her replacement was totally clueless) but nothing that the guests noticed.  I actually got a teeny bit sick for about an hour, between the ceremony and reception, before dinner (pretty sure it was a touch of food poisoning from my lunch, combined with the fact that my dress was so tight, and that I took an Immodium that morning).  That part was shitty, but I rallied after dinner and felt a ton better the rest of the night.  (Tip: don't take Immodium if your body isn't used to it).  It was truly such a small tiny portion of a long amazing day that it didn't put a damper on any of the fun I was having :)  Our guests were great, and FI and I had such a blast all day long celebrating with them and our wedding party.

Vendor reviews and FOR SALE are all in my bio, and as soon as I have my pro pics back I will share them!!!  Below are pics from family and two sneak peaks from Cadence.

Huge thank you to all of you ladies who helped me along every step of the way!!!!

Married!  We had our officiant stand to the side of us, and FI and I held hands and faced our guests.  It made for MUCH better photos, and our guests didn't have to stare at our backs the whole time!!



My new siblings!  Can you tell which three are FI's blood relatives, and which three of us married into the family?  LOL



Sneak peak from Cadence Cornelius, our photog - this was during our "alone" time right before the ceremony :)
