I'M BACK!!!

Hi Girls.

I got married! OMG, I am still on a high. The day was perfect, especially the weather. Everything went off without a hitch. (Well except for my bustle. It fell apart, but we had a few ladies who were handy with a needle and thread so that wasn't really a problem.) The food was fantastic. The DJ played everything we asked for. Everyone danced. The flowers and the cake were just what I envisioned but so much better. The flowers especially.

Here are a few photos that guests have shared. Don't have the formal shots from the photographer yet. You should be able to access them at

The day does go by so fast. From the point I left my house with my dad in the limo to when I was at the altar with Bob felt like 30 seconds, but I remember every moment in between. Just in fast forward. A lot of people told us that we wouldn't remember the ceremony or the reception, but I remember it all very clearly.

As for the honeymoon, Hawaii is heaven on earth. Our trip was delayed by one day because of the earthquake and power outages, but we made the most of it. We spent the first day of our honeymoon walking/driving around the North Shore. We went to Rockport, and had lunch on the water, then toured around. We lost a day in Oahu, so we had to run around and see everything on Wednesday (Pearl Harbor and the rest of the island.) We flew to Maui on Thursday and finally got to relax. We went snorkeling, had a helicopter tour, sat on the beach and by the pool, and went to a luau. We ate a lot! We had the best sushi ever. It was so hard leaving Maui, and arriving in MA just in time for Saturday's big storm, but I am looking forward to "real" life with Bob. (It's really easy being married on your honeymoon in Maui ;-)

Hope all wedding plans are going well. If I can be of service to anyone, let me know.

Thank you! These are just pictures that one of my BM's took. I can't wait to see the professional pics.

Some of the best moments of the day...

1) When I arrived at the church with my dad, my sister runs up to the limo, hysterically happy, and said, "He's here! Bob's in the church!" That just made me smile and laugh, and I was a little less nervous. ;-)

2) When I started walking down the aisle, I couldn't see Bob at the front of the church because of all the people. I was half way down the aisle before our eyes met, and that moment was amazing. Even Bob said that he was nervous until he saw me, and it was all fine after that.

3) Right after dinner, Bob was talking to some of his relatives on one side of the room, and I was walking over to him. I was by myself, and I stopped in the corner, turned and surveyed the room. Everyone was having so much fun dancing and talking. At that moment, everything we did, all the money, was worth it. It felt complete. I was so calm and happy. I just danced the night away after that.

I absolutely agree on a GTG. I think we should all take an evening in January and go through each others pictures!
