So I really don't even know where to begin! I really thought I would be able to put words together MUCH easier then this!!! I'm just surprised because I'm NEVER at a loss for words (lol) but I AM.

Well, I guess I have to try... right?
Vinny and I got home a little while ago from our 'day after brunch' which turned into everyone hanging out at my parent's house all day! Then, when we were able to come on and check our emails there was an email waiting for us from Gary (our photog) of some proofs!! The DAY AFTER the wedding

They are absolutely amazing and took my breath away-- if this is just a small taste then I can only IMAGINE how amazing all of the other pictures will be... Everything is just STUNNING.
It really still feels like a dream- yesterday was a complete dream and so wonderful that the word dream doesn't even do it justice! It's like the best thing you could EVER imagine in your wildest dreams... We had the most FUN and I swear, I've never been so content and thrilled. It makes you realize how much you love the person you are with-- it really does.
The weather was just perfection-- I could not have asked for a better day. While it was a little humid here and there-- when we were taking pics (which was when we were outside the most) it was NOT humid!! There was an afternoon breeze which was just lovely... All I kept saying was how blessed and thankful I was to have beautiful weather... Especially when I was driving to the Church with my Dad and back from the Church w/ my husband- the convertable antique car that we had was just GORGEOUS!
There are no words to describe our vendors... In the final hour, when I was without a DOC, Denise Leli (my headpiece person- of ALL people) and her wonderful daughter Christie came through for us like ANGELS from Heaven! They came and set up all of our Church details (which was really all I needed because let me tell you how amazing the staff at Flowerfield is!!!)... But they came and were there to not only place my headpiece in my hair, help me put the final touches on me getting ready and dressed-- but then they went over to the Church, set up everything, handed out programs, etc etc etc!! They were so amazing that I wanted to just cry that two people are so helpful and caring to do that for us! It was just great... So a big thanks to them! Also, of course, for making my stunning veil and headpiece which I was so happy with.

So, Heart & Soul ladies-- you are going to be so happy!!! What talented musicians!!!
Keyth from Lovin Oven Floral Designs-- another amazing vendor to work with who produced 110% on the day of... He is just phenominal and a fantastic designer. Our room just took my breath away and the attention to detail and personal attention you get is AMAZING. We got SO many raves from guests about our flowers-- and again, lots of people asked WHO DID THEM!?!?! LOL which was so nice.
I really can't say enough about our photographer-- We have over 4,000 proofs that Gary said will be ready when we get back from our HM and he had a 'preview' waiting for us when we got to our email inbox today... FANTASTIC! He was an absolute PLEASURE to work with all day and I was so calm, cool, HAPPY, and collected the ENTIRE day because of his calm energy-- and it shows in the pictures.
More than anything else- people told me how HAPPY we looked... and personally, towards me, how CALM I was all day... That I wasn't nervous, anxious, stressed, upset... NOT A SINGLE EMOTION like that... Not once, ALL DAY. It was the BEST thing I could have asked for... because I was totally, completely content. Infact, what is even more amazing-- is that I was so calm considering I'm a big time worrier normally haha! I mean, I tend to stress out a lot over stuff but on the day of-- there was NONE of that.

Our families were WONDERFUL, our Bridal Party was the BEST, our MD and BA at Flowerfield were pure perfection-- the entire day was, hate to say it, perfect and MORE than I could have ever imagined or envisioned.

and girls-- thank you all so much for your kind words, thoughts, compliments, well wishes, etc. It means so very much to both Vinny and myself-- as most of you know, Vinny is the most involved groom so he wanted to see the comments too which I showed him.

It was the best day of both our lives and we will have the memories forever-- and nothing stood in our way, no one obstructed that-- and it was worth all the hard work and dedication!!
