Thank you for your kind words, everyone! Miraclesrule, I loved looking at your daughter''s photos (I''m in San Diego too) -- they were gorgeous. You both are gorgeous!

Here''s another

I was going to tell Katie "no kissing photos, please" -- I don''t know why, I just thought I''d never be able to do it. But I dropped a lot of my little "I''m gonna do this/that" control freak stuff on the wedding day. Thank goodness!

Lovely pictures!! I love your color scheme - it's so perfect and bright and fresh. You're so handy to have put together those candles, they came out so wonderfully. I am so envious - I've always wanted colorful lanterns...but unfortunately they didn't fit in our venue. Sigh - the more I look at your colors too I regret I didn't go brighter with my colors... but I digress... Good thing I can live vicariously through yours! btw I LOVE the style of your dress pictures! Thanks for sharing your pictures!

oops eta forgot to add you're such a pretty, loving, charming couple! The photog captured your joy very well.
 
Thanks SuLi and Mimzy! And clop, you are too sweet. My mom and sister really helped make my wedding magical. My dearest friends did my hair and makeup (I can only do opera night vamp or no makeup at all) and my DH who is more like the absent-minded professor hung those pesky lanterns from the fish wire.

My big thing was those lanterns. And I just wanted two things: Plum purple in the lanterns and in my bouquet if at all possible. Somehow the chartreuse/lime and fuchsia came about -- we never had colors picked!

Ok I''m prattling on!

Prattle on! I love reading details! Everything worked out so perfectly - the chartreuse/lime and fuchsia complement the centerpieces so well!
 
Wow everything is so pretty. Love those shoes!
 
Just gorgeous. You. The shoes. The venue. Love it all.

Thanks for sharing!
 
Ohh thank you Haven, clop and mia. You are making my day with your sweet comments.

Just after the ceremony...

OH! Your pictures are awesome. What a great day for you!
I also love that you have short hair....like mine! I''m getting married in March in Belize and I''ve been wanting to see some brides with shorter hair so I can get some ideas of how I want it to look.
(it seems that all the pics in magazines or dresses on line have models with long hair always...or an up do - which I can''t do because my hair is just a tad too short). Anyway..sorry for rambling..you looked fantastic.
Congrats!!!

Your pictures are fantastic! I love the flower in your hair, the colors, the details, everything! Congrats on a wonderful day!
 
Awwww you two are adorable! Congratulations on your marriage! I LOVE the photo of the two of you in the mirror.
 
Congratulations! Great pics...I loved all the eyelet. And you''re hair is too cute! I just love the headband look vs tiara.

You and your hubby make a lovely couple!

Hi wishful, I know exactly what you mean about so few short hair bridal pics. I seemed to only find the same stuff over and over when looking for ideas. I can''t wait to see your pics from Belize!

And thanks modernsparkler, dreamgirl and idreamofcushions for your thoughtful words. Thanks for looking at all of these!
 
everything looks so perfect...!! u look so happy in all ur shots :)
 
thanks, msb! I''m probably not going to be able to withstand it when the non-pro pics come in from guests and will have to add some here.

Ok cool...so maybe I can pick your brain a little about your hairstyle....where did you get your headband/scarf? I love that. does it go all the way around or is it a typical headband that stops right behind the ears?
Also how did they get the flower on there? It's so pretty!!!
I may have to copy you if I can get your permission!!!!!

and I will for sure post pics when we are back!
 
matilda, congratulations! Everything looked so beautiful, and I loved the lanterns...they added the perfect touch of color...
 
Hi Sweet Molly!

Congratulations, hun! I am so happy for you! You looked absolutely amazing...you are such a cute couple! I don''t know why, but I loved the pic of you both on the stairs with your lower halves showing...it is just precious!

I know you were worried before you left, but I hope the kitties fared well and that everything else went off without a hitch!

I am so happy for you, Mrs. Matilda!

Thanks for sharing with all of us here!

Love,
 
Aw, what great photos...you just look so happy! I love all the colors in your decorations and your husbands attire...very nice!
You made a beautiful bride!
 
wishful -- It''s actually a normal, wide headband that goes to your ears. The florist sent us a cymbidium orchid (that I thought was too BIG when I saw it) and bobby pinned it into the headband and my hair. We sort of teased the back of my hair up behind the headband and they sprayed the heck out of my hair too. The key was putting the headband on first; I put it right where it was comfy and pulled out some strands of hair by my ears. THEN we put the flower in. Use any pics you want! I can look for a better "hair" one for you, too.

claudina, thank you so much. My lanterns were my big obsession. :>

And HI sweetest Harleigh. I was hoping you''d see the pics. I love the one (without our heads!) on the stairs, too. The girls (the cats) are great and Melody is not AS reclusive post-surgery. We are glad we boarded them. How are you doing these days? Big hugs to you!

And Diamonddana, thank you. My husband wore a seersucker jacket that we loved. Thanks for noticing!
 
I just saw these! Simply gorgeous! I love rain too- what a cozy special wedding! All the details and colors from decor to clothing to cake are so beautiful, fresh, clean and joyful. The lanterns are to die for! You have great taste and great pictures to prove it. Congrats. Just fabulous! Glad to hear your adorable cats are doing well!

Mrs.2Artists
 
Aww you guys just look SO HAPPY! Love it!!!! The colors are so fresh and fun.
 
Hi Mrs.2Artists! Thank you so much. Forgive me if I already mentioned this, but we had Mittens'' pawprint on the fireplace mantle behind us as we said our vows. We didn''t bring any mementos of our ''new'' girls, but I did bring their photos on the trip with me. :>

And thank you! neatfreak, for saying we look happy. I worried that I might look...worried in pics. I tend to worry. :>
 
Molly, I love everything, like Haven said. Your dress is beautiful, and the colors you used are really pretty. Your photographer is great, too! Congratulations and best wishes!
 
That is so beautiful to have had the paw print there on the mantle. What a sweet way to honor dear Mittens.

Mrs.2Artists
 
Ok your colors are TDF!!! The eyelet details and the paper lanterns are divine!

And your outfits are so cool... the colors, style and your shoes are awesome too!

I really dig your style!
 
Thanks Zoe, 2Artists and Violet.

I''ve got a few non-pro pics I''m going to try to put in here because I find myself a bit obsessed with looking at the pictures and just .... smiling!
