we''re married!!! some pro shots already!

[ahappygirl]

Congratulations! Beautiful images and I totally agree about your hair! Awesome. Can''t wait for the other pics!

 

[SarahLovesJS]

Gorgeous! You two are adorable and I love your dress, it hugs your curves in all the right places! Best wishes to you and your DH!

ETA: I totally agree it looks like a magazine spread! It looks like it came right out of Elegant Bride or The Knot!

 

[rubybeth]

Wow! Don''t take this the wrong way... your bridesmaids are HOT!! Heheh. And you''re not so bad yourself... have you ever modeled?

 

[cdt1101]

aw! You ladies are too kind! I''ve certainly never modeled, if you only knew how much I''ve struggled w/ self esteem issues my whole life! It''s really nice to read your comments. And if I could tell the brides-to-be anything it''s that no matter how much you doubt how you''ll look the day off, whether it''s your dress, hair, weight...whatever...you WILL feel beautiful the day of your wedding. I doubted my dress (and hair..and weight) SO much the few months leading up to the wedding, but as soon as I put my dress on I felt so awesome!!! Never better.

btw....I LOVE our photographer..hehe...I may actually be kind of IN love w/ him...ok, not really, but I''m so happy w/ his work so far and he was great to work with. If any of you ladies are looking for a photog in NJ/NY/PA, look up Jeff Tisman!

 

[AllieLuv83]

OMG I love your pictures! I looked up his website and there were no prices attached to his packages if you don''t mind me asking could you tell me what his packages start at?

 

[cdt1101]

Allie - well we booked him last summer, I''m not sure if his prices have changed. But his Package A, which is really just his time and negatives no album (what we went with) was $4,000. Package B was $5,000. And up from there. But as much as my DH complained about how expensive photography is, we both are so thrilled w/ Jeff. He was so laid back and so nice to work with, and his work speaks for itself, if you are looking for photo-journalistic style, he''s the man! At least it my opinion

 

[lovesparklies]

Wow, I LOVE your dress and it looks perfect on you! I also love how you did your bouquet in mainly pink and your bridesmaids'' in white and green -- I''ll be anxiously awaiting some pics of the reception decor! One of my friends was also in a wedding where she wore a cream/white bridesmaid dress and it is SUCH a classic look. That wedding is actually on theknot.com.

 

[jcrow]

oh wow~!! beautiful beautiful pictures!! congratulations! you two look sooo lovely!

 

[princesss]

WOW. I love the idea of ivory BM dresses. I really really love them. You''re right -- they''re classic, elegant, and really play up how beautiful your BMs are.

Stunning pictures. I can''t wait to see the rest!

If you don''t mind me asking, where are your bmaids dresses from?

 

[cdt1101]

me

 

[cdt1101]

last one! Thanks for letting me share!

This was us being announced and my DH attempting to dance...hehe...very funny moment

 

[cdt1101]

thanks for the compliments on the BM dresses Jcrow and Rock!!

Rockzilla - they are Jim Hjelm. Let me look up the style #, since I think someone else asked previously...be right back

 

[cdt1101]

ok.

The old style is long (we ended up w/ this one, but hemmed to a short length) Style number 5521.

However, they now make it in a short length. Style number 5814.

Hope that helps!

 

[pocahontas]

Your pictures are stunning! I love the one you're using for your Thank You cards. The bouquet shot and the one with you looking behind are also beautiful. You and your DH look so happy and excited - I love that

You guys are a great looking couple. Keep the pictures coming!
