My wedding photographer Jeff Cooke has been sending me tons of pictures from the big day and I thought I would share a few along with a few of the highlights of the weekend - in no particular order.
Highlight: When Brad saw me for the first time before the wedding. He said you look awesome and not too Jackie O'ish. He was a little worried about the Jackie look. Men!
Highlight: Seeing Brad cry as I walked down the aisle. Even though we spent the hour or so beforehand taking pictures it was still all about that moment.
Highlight: Having everything in one central place. We planned it this way and I cannot tell you how many people stopped to tell me how much they appreciated having the ceremony, reception and everyone's sleeping rooms in one spot. Not to mention it was walking distance to so many places!
Highlight: Having all of our family and friends meet. So awesome to see people meet each other for the first time after hearing story after story. Just look at my besties taking a gander at my hot mama shoes!
Highlight: Seeing Brad with his boys. Like me he was on cloud 9 having all of his best friends(who all live out of town)with him for the big day.
Here us girls are again. All of these chicas(who live outside of Charlotte) would have been my entourage of bridesmaids if I had chosen to go that route.
Highlight: Having people come up to me after the wedding and tell me that they could feel the love in the room. They know it's for reals.
Highlight: Walking into that reception room. Seeing my awesome flowers, my awesome friends, and my awesome family! I HAVE NEVER BEEN so EXCITED!
Highlight: Brad telling me that I was cutting too small of a piece of cake.
Highlight: During the ceremony when the Chaplain tells Brad that he can kiss the bride he says QUOTE: 'OH SNAP!' then kisses me!
Don't you love this picture?
Highlight: Seeing Brad's Dad and my new FIL cry while giving his toast at our rehearsal dinner. Oh..how sweet.
Highlight: My Dad trying to give me a quick ballroom dancing lesson during our Father/Daughter dance.
Highlight: Feeling the overcoming joy and excitement in my heart during our first dance to Smile by Uncle Kracker. I don't think I have ever felt that way before.
Highlight: Seeing my parents the happiest I have ever seen them in my entire life. No kidding!
Highlight: To great toasts by friends and family throughout the weekend. Including by BIL's Best Man toast where he referred to my love of photography and taking pix 5x's. LOL!
Last but not least Highlight: Dancing the night away. That is no joke. The deejay said he enjoyed watching me get down especially at the end when he played zydeco music!
More to come friends! Love you all!
