WOW! What a day!!!

[ellaila]

WOW! I cannot imagine a day turning out more beautifully than our wedding day yesterday was!!!

The weather -- gorgeous. The ceremony -- incredible. The reception -- intimate yet so full of energy and life and sparkle! Just incredible, the entire day. I wouldn''t change a thing!!

We will definitely have a million photos coming to us in the next few days and weeks, but I wanted to share a few with you guys, since you''ve gotten me through this all!!

Here we are during the ceremony!

First kiss as husband and wife!

 

[ellaila]

This was after we came back down the aisle and looked at each other and said "Ohmygod, we''re married!!" It''s blurry, but I like it!

Isn''t it a relief? I am so glad everything went to perfect. Congrats to you and your DH!!!

We stayed in a beach cottage at our venue last night -- absolutely breathtaking! Cutesy cottage charm with total luxury treatment -- perfect!

Here''s the room itself:

and one more of the happy couple!

 

[ellaila]

OK, that''s it for now! I''m sure you''re sick of looking at our smiling faces by now anyway!

But truly, the day was better than we ever imagined it could be! The ceremony was a blast, families and friends all got along, and I''ve got the best husband in the world -- I''m just blessed as can be

Thanks to you all for your support and answers the past few months -- you''re all just the best!!

Aw, you guys are very adorable together. You look thrilled to be getting married, what a wonderful thing. Everything is beautiful in these pictures, you look radiant, the flowers are gorgeous, and the cottage looks so cozy and romantic. Congratulations!

 

[robbie3982]

Congratulations! You look so beautiful and happy! I can''t wait to see more of your pictures.

 

[ellaila]

Thanks everyone! I guess when you''re truly happy, that glow really does shine through!

Other people''s photos are starting to come in to us already (thank God for digital cameras, eh?), so I''ll try to show some restraint and not post too many ... oh, who am I kidding?

 

[jas]

Congratulations -- you are a beautiful couple! I love your earrings, by the way!

Bring on all the pictures, girl...as someone on this site once said, we love the "bridal ****" --

Thanks for sharing, and I hope the glow lasts a lifetime!

Congratulations. Your flowers are gorgeous with the little hint of colors. You are a cute couple. More pics please.

 

[ellaila]

Sorry these are so out of order!

Here''s one of my Dad and I walking down the aisle. We both still had composure at this point

 

[ellaila]

Our Dads said blessings during the ceremony - my Dad in Hebrew, hubby''s Dad in Spanish. I have to say that people *loved* this -- almost everyone cried!! It was so beautiful and meaningful

 

[ellaila]

Hubby stepped on the glass - yay!! Love the officiant''s face and body language in this photo!! She''s such a character!

 

[kanne]

absolutley GORGEOUS!!!!! Everything looked beautiful - esp you two - happy and excited! I love that beach cottage too. Looks very Nantucket. So lovely! Congratulations!

 

[AmberWaves]

Oh my goodness, LOVE your pictures!! I want your bouquet!!

 

[ellaila]

Well, my florist will be pleased when I pass all these complliments on to her!! I found her through someone''s Knot bio, and she was the only florist I even spoke to! I saw a photo of a similar bouquet on her Web site (www.grandifloradesign.com), and said I wanted that but with some mini callas thrown in and a touch of light light pink or peach -- and she came up with a masterpiece of a bouquet! I was/am in love with it

She''s in N. Kingstown, RI, in case any of you are RI brides!!

 

[Dee*Jay]

Your photos are wonderful! Congratulations!

 

[MelissaSue]

OOOOH! I love your pictures! You are beautiful! You look so happy.. and I love how happy your officiant looks in all the pictures too (random, I know... but my officiant acted pissed off during our whole ceremony.. so I notice. ) I love your dress.. I love the location and I love the emotions shown in your pics
