Well the wonderful and long anticipated day has come, and gone... a while ago. But life has been crazy and I needed to get the photos back. So here is my last post on this and I want to say thank you to everyone who came to our day, and also to all of those who were with us in spirit. It meant so much and I can't help but keep smiling every time I think back on it. Even the weather was with us since it was raining in the morning, but held off the the ceremony, and until the pictures were done.
To say the day was magical sounds cliché but in my mind it was.
 |
| The Flower Girls' Dresses turned out adorable. |
 |
| The cupcake cake was a big hit, multiple flavours was great! |
 |
| The guess favours of chocolates and the donation to the tsunami victims was touching. |
 |
| Making our own bouquets was a great way to stay on budget and looked awesome. |
 |
| Making my own veil fell through because it wasn't the right shade of white, but I was happy to have my bought veil. |
 |
| Our location at my sisters was perfect, and I couldn't have found a better spot! |
 |
| The paper cranes were beautiful! I loved all the colours and the reminder of Japan. |
 |
| The name cards were a big hit, and I was glad I spent FOREVER to make them. |
 |
| The tent was great to avoid the little bit of rain, and the Christmas lights made an amazing atmosphere. |
All of these phots were taken by
Heather Deitz Photography (except for the last photo) and we are supremely happy with the images. In fact she loved one of them so much it is now the image on her web page to go to her blog!
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the best summery of how things actually turned out. I hope this helps anyone who's thinking of their own wedding. Best of luck to anyone taking on the endeavor that is planning a wedding, and thank you to all who helped make our the best day ever.
