Those collages are fabulous! Haha, I love the one of you all goofing around in the morning getting ready--so glad you were relaxed and having fun!

Congrats again, looks like a wonderful day!

Your smile. That''s what I notice in all the shots. How genuinely happy and relaxed you look. That''s so lovely to see... and you can feel it coming through in the pics. Everything looks beautiful and I wanted to congratulate you on your wedding!

Aauw, thank you Gypsy! I really can''t explain how amazing that day was. The night before was such chaos (one of our groomsmen waited until the morning of to pick up his tux), but DH said "Whatever happens, happens. We''re getting married and that''s all that matters." And he was so right! He really helped me stay focused on what was important and kept me from going bridezilla all over the place.

I do love him.

And it really makes me happy to hear that our pictures can convey that absolute ease and joy. Thank you so much!

Honestly, your pictures made me tear up a little--you look so unshakably happy, not to mention classy, approachable, and elegant. Looks like you had a wonderful wedding! Congratulations.

Just beautiful. You both have faces that.. reflect a lot of love and kindness. I love love love your cake, too! Looks so chic...and yummy. Is that buttercream icing?

Actually, the icing was cream cheese - it went so well with the red velvet cake. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water!

My MOH said that instead of saving the top tier, she would recreate the cake for our one-year anniversary. So sweet!!
