Yah, I''m a senora! ... I wish I could do it again and again (with the same husband, of course). ...

Haha! I was just telling some friends a few nights ago that I was going to renew my vows at 5 years and 10 years, and then probably 12 years and 15 years and 20 years... then maybe every year after - just so I could ALWAYS be planning a wedding (I figure in the first 5 or 10 we''ll have babies - so I''ll have to take some years off for child bearing and rearing!). LOL!

Your wedding looks absolutely breath taking. Congratulations!

Congratulations! I can''t see your face, but you have a beautiful figure that shows off your gorgeous dress. What a lovely wedding.

 

[Tuckins1]

OMG, these pics are STUNNING!!! Congratulations!

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Really gorgeous pictures! Your dress was perfect for the location!

 

[CDNinNYC]

Wow, Pocahontas, your pictures are exactly what I needed as a pick-me-up! You looked breathtakingly gorgeous. Seriously. Your dress was perfect, especially for the location. I love your ''something blue''!

Please also tell your sister she looked gorgeous in her dress. I remember you having some issues but in the end, the dress, with its gorgeous colour, worked perfectly against your sister''s skin tone and was so complementary with the location you picked.

I hope you''ll post more photos, please?

Luvthemstrawberries, thanks so much! It''s funny ''cause when I was originally looking for a dress I had my mind set on something much simpler, but then I saw this dress and immediately fell in love with it. As soon as I put it on, I knew it was the one.

It is SO gorgeous, especially on you!!! I just searched and found the original dress thread for when you ordered it. It''s so pretty!

Thanks for sharing!

STUNNING - your dress is TDF, and the whole wedding looks (and sounds!) amazing! Congratulations

Pocahontas!!! Te ves hermosisisisisisima!!!! Me imagino que hablas espanol. Fui a la Republica Dominicana hace un par de anos (playitas cerca de la capital) y me encanto muchisimo. Es un pais muy lindo!!!

I love your dress. Is it La Sposa? If so, it''s the one I almost got. It was down to that one and the one I ended up getting, and after seeing you in it, I have some slight regrets.

Felicidades!

 

[Lanie]

Oh!!!! Y el anillo de larimar! Que chevere que podias incorporar una tradicion del pais. La piedra es tan impresionante!

Awwwww.......my PS soulmate!

Congratulations Pocahontas!!!

I've been checking this area ever since your wedding waiting to see if you would share some photos of your special day. I've been thinking of you! My goodness how romantic it looked! It really did look like a dream. I'm glad all your guests enjoyed themselves and I wouldn't worry too much about the few little hiccups. Everything seemed perfect to me!

You looked gorgeously stunning in your gown! I especially love the centerpieces....just beautiful! I wish you all the happiness in the world with your new husband!! EEEP!

My gosh this is so exciting!!! Congrats again sweetie! I've got to say, your photos literally brought a huge smile to my face and tears were building up in my eyes. Guess cause you are my PS soulmate! lol

I'm so happy it went splendidly. I'd LOVE to see more photos....

 

[icekid]

pocahontas- What stunning photos! The church has so much character; so romantic! The perfect setting for your dramatic dress. Stunning wedding. Congrats to you both

 

[pocahontas]

LL, thank you! I didn''t know you''re from the Dominican Republic. What a beautiful country! One of my few regrets is that we didn''t get to enjoy the DR a bit more. There''s so much history and a lot of beautiful architecture there. Usually, DH and I like to get off the resort and explore surrounding towns and cities when we travel, but we were soooooo busy with meetings and appointments almost the entire week, there wasn''t a whole lot of time to do what we love to do best. Hopefully, DH and I will return one day for an anniversary trip. For me, the DR will always hold a special place in my heart! Which part are you from?

 

[pocahontas]

Mscushion, VR, Sarah, SDL, Kim, Porridge, Sabine, RLG, Bia, Katamari, Ally, Idreamofcushions, Izzy, wow, you ladies are so kind! Thank you so much for your compliments and well wishes; they are very much appreciated! Of course, we all make decisions based on our personal likes and dislikes, but it''s always so nice to hear others'' feedback/comments that reassure and echo your own feelings, ya know?! Thanks again, ladies!

WOW

They are fabulous. You look amazing! Think they're my favourite wedding photos ever.

Really?! Wow, given the spectactular weddings we've seen on here, that's a huge compliment! AND, this coming from the lady who's getting married in that magnificent castle?! Your post has blushing and doing this ->

 

[kittybean]

Gorgeous photos, Pocahontas! The scenery there is incredible. I love your dress, too!

 

[pocahontas]

ILTW, thanks my fellow T.O. grad student! No doubt your wedding at Auberge du Pommier is going to be totally fabu! With your wedding less than two months away, you must be super excited! What's your exact wedding date again 'cause I have dinner reservations at Auberge on June 28th

Kama, big thanks to my other Toronto grad student/PSer! I'm glad you liked the pics; you and CDN were the push I needed to post. The larimar ring is something that has so much sentimental value to me so thanks for commenting on it. By the way, what are you doing on June 28th

Ara Ann, JJC, thank you so much!

Winslet, thanks for your kind words! Sleek, simple, and elegant was exactly the look and feel DH and I were hoping to achieve. I know our style may be too minimalistic or boring for some so it's always nice when someone compliments and appreciates the overall look we were aspiring towards.

Glitterazzi, ha! Your post made me laugh out loud! I'm already planning our 1 year anniversary trip, entire goup and all! Now, if only I can convince DH....

Harriet, yah, the woman with fantabulous jewellery taste likes my dress and wedding photos! Now, that's a compliment

Tuckins, DS, thank you so much!

CDN, first of all, ((((big hug)))) to you, friend! FWIW, I'm confident everything will work out for you and FI, and you'll be posting stunning pics of your own DW! About my sister's dress, you're right; in the end it totally worked and she looked and, more importantly, felt beautiful. It's no MS, but I agree it was gorgeous nonetheless! I will definitely pass on your compliments to her. Thanks for the kind words about my own dress and wedding pics. I'm glad you liked it all!

Gaby, Amber, Ams, LTP, Mediterranean, OUpeargirl, Lliang, Icekid, honestly, everyone's compliments and well wishes are so overwhleming! It never ceases to amaze me how generous and supportive everyone on PS are towards each other.

Lanie, gracias por sus palabras buenas. Déjeme disculparse por adelantado por mi mal español. Entiendo mucho porque mi esposo es colombiano y hemos viajado mucho en América latina, pero todavía estoy aprendiendo escribir en español. La República Dominicana es un país hermoso; deseo que hubiéramos pasado más tiempo que la exploraban. Thanks also for your compliments on my larimar ring; I too love that the chance I took in waiting until we arrived to the DR to purchase something sentimental paid off. My dress is actually from Madelaine Gardner's private line so no need to have regrets. I've seen the pics of you in your fab wedding gown and you're going to be a total knock out!

Dream, yah my PS soulmate posted

Seriously, you're incredibly sweet! Thank you, thank you, thank you for your compliments and well wishes! It means more than words can begin to describe to have you comment and post such kind words!

 

[Kelli]

What a beautiful wedding! Your dress is stunning on you!

 

[violet02]

Wow I''m blown away by your dress, and how you look in it even with your face not in the pics! I mean seriously, that''s an incredible dress! The destination looked amazing as well... and your shoes were perfect.

Big congrats to you and your new hubby!

[tlh]

It was all soo beautiful. Your dress took my breath away... simply marvelous.

 

[pocahontas]

Kittybean, thank you very much! Having not visted the DR prior to our wedding, DH and I really lucked out that our church and Altos de Chavon turned out to be even more spectactular than we had expected.

Kelli, thanks! I wish I could wear my dress again and again. I keep telling DH that I''m going to wear it to our very informal post-wedding party....I''m only slightly joking - lol!

Violet, coming from a woman whose wedding is one of my absolute favs, what a huge compliment! Thank you!

Dreamgirl,

Goodsoul, thank you very much!

Mere, did you read my comment about how much I covet your CL''s? I hope you''re not too disappointed in my choice of cheap flats. I''m glad you liked the pics! Thanks for the kind words!

Bee,

Tlh, wow, thank you so much! You''ve got me blushing over here!
