Our Wedding, Part I

I am finally posting some more pictures and details from our wedding... I was sitting here at my desk finishing up my husband's internet advertising and while listening to iTunes, one of our wedding songs came on...thus a little inspiration =)

The day started about 7 am for me...with a hot shower and breakfast of half-eaten toast and a few sips of a protein drink {yes I was severely nervous}! Our photographer decided the night before that it would be incredibly awesome to photograph me & the girls getting ready at Stephen's house {yes it's that awesome}. So last second, I called Whitney & Brooke to come pick up me and Tasiah.....there was NO WAY I was going to be driving myself! =)

Soooooo...... I made sure Stephen & the house-full of guys were gone and getting ready at our own church {we didn't have access to the chapel yet.....so they got ready there}, and there our second shooter would photograph them. Here are a few "getting ready" shots...

{all the photographs below taken by Sam Hassas, unless otherwise noted}


Reading a text...wonder who it's from!? =)

This popped up on my phone around 11am....a reminder!!! =) {if you can't see it, it says "best day of my life!!! =)"

really neat shot....yes I did do my own hair......I highly recommend not doing that... ;)

This shot it too cool.... another thing I DO NOT recommend: ironing your own veil a few days before the wedding. Let someone else burn their hand. LOL

Me and MOH having a moment. I really needed a pick-me-up. Getting quite nervous and had major jitters.


Love this shot.....Hannah looks good infront of the camera no matter what angle you get her from =)

A group shot of everyone just chillin. Hair was done...{thanks Whitney everyone looked beautiful!} and me analyzing in the mirror, probably curling eyelashes =)


Another "needing a laugh moment" {thanks Tasiah} LOL =)


This lil guy cheered me up when I was getting ancy too! Is that not the cutest lil face?! {my nephew Benjamin}

{these photos were taken by our second shooter, Francis Joseph}

Meanwhile.....at the church.....

No, we did not see eachother that morning. Yes, we did talk on the phone =)


LOVE. THIS.PICTURE.



Couldn't get any better.
