Our Wedding.

I figured it was about time I did a wedding post.
Seeing as Josh and I have been married for almost two months now. :)
------
Our colors were yellow, light blue, and grey.


I don't think I've ever been so nervous in my life.
The night before the wedding, at rehearsal, my stomach was literally in KNOTS.
Not because I was getting married. It was more like...stage fright.
I was terrified that everything would fall apart and it would be all my fault.
(I did lots of DIY.)
That night, I went home, and finished working on little things that needed to be done.
-------
The next morning was basically a whirlwind.
I was rushing around finishing the last minute details.
But once I got to the church and started getting ready, I was feeling a lot better.
I didn't feel nervous, just anxious and excited.








Getting ready was a little stressful, as my hair/makeup artist backed out on me, and I had to do it myself.
But in the end I still felt lovely. :)






About 15 minutes before the ceremony, Leah (maid of honor) told me she had a surprise for me.
She got a phone call, and it was one of my best friends, Carrie, who now lives in Sweden.
Carrie and I have been friends since we were 7 years old, and it was really hard for me that she couldn't make it to the wedding.
But that phone call meant the world to me!
I was crying so much.
(I got all my tears out here.)



The ceremony was probably the quickest in history.
It was nice, though.
And everything fell perfectly into place.


Our reception was very low key, just dinner and visiting.
But it's exactly what I wanted, and I loved every minute of it.
It was such a beautiful day.








I have the best husband, ever.
I can't believe how blessed I am to have such a wonderful man to call mine.
He's my best friend.
He makes me laugh more than anyone.
And I love him more than anything.

    your bridesmaids dresses are adorable, and your dress: swooooooonnnnn.

    you and josh look so perfect. i love how low-key your wedding was--exactly how i want mine to be. and if it has to be over the top, it'll only be that because it will be an 80's wedding :).

    thanks so much for your sweet comments today... :) it's easy to get caught up in the little things, isn't it?! and to want to be a people pleaser... but you're right... People won't even notice or care about a little thing like that. you just made my day a little better. :)))
