Our Wedding: Getting Ready

I have thought a lot about what details to show in my wedding posts, which is why it’s taken so long for me to post these. I really want to share every single detail with you guys, but I also want to keep my identity anonymous and am not ready to share this blog with my family and friends yet. However, I have decided to put caution (or anonymity?) to the wind and share what I want.

Here are a few photos from getting ready:

I bought my dress from David’s Bridal for $499 (remember?), and I loved it. It was long, flowy gown and would swish every time I walked. One guest at the reception asked me if it was a vintage dress, which of course I was delighted to hear!

I chose to wear my hair up because I have naturally thick, wavy hair and given any chance of humidity, it has  a life of its own and may not have looked as pretty as I would have wanted. You curly-haired girls know what I’m talking about.

J wore a khaki suit with a green tie to match our wedding colors. The groomsmen wore khakis with a white shirt, and they all looked so sharp.

My earrings served as my “something old” from my grandmother, and the only jewelry I chose to wear.  I love that picture of J’s pocketwatch, mere 15 minute before we walked down the aisle!
