Magical Moments

 

Me and my bridemaid had some fun while getting ready, my most precious memory of the entire day was when my Dad and I walked down the isle of our outside seremoni and the first thing I saw was my future husband (now husband) in tears, and then telling me how beautiful I looked and me apologizing for being late (oops)!
Highlights of the evening included;
Our firs dance as man and wife,
My father and dauther dance were so much fun I could not stop laughing and giggling like a schoolgirl,
Oh and lets not forget the cake cutting, we secretly made a pack not to rub cake in each others faces but the moment I saw the devilish grin on my husbands face, i knew what his plan was, and let me tell you I got him good

My Special Day

My overall wedding look were very classic an country style. My wedding dress was white with a sweetheart neckline and classic mermaid style at the bottom, and had small pearls hand stitched on the entire dress, i had a plain veil, my hair was done in a updo with a braid on the side and hand made white ribbon roses in my hair. My makeup was natural with a rosegold and smokey eye that made my green eyes pop and I had a dark shade lipstick on. My shoes was nude cowboy boots as we had a country wedding. I had white lace under garments. I kept my jewelry plain. My necklace was a single pearl with matching earings (something old and borrowed from my mother). I had a pearl armband that my mother made herself.
