Best day ever! We hit a few snags along the way and the day of, but to me everything was absolutely perfect.
I, of course, was bawling once I got to 2/3s down the aisle (didn't expect that) and then forgot what to do (lost my veil, kissed FH on the cheek instead of my dad, oops!). I can always laugh at myself, so it actually just added to the day!
Some especially outstanding vendors:
Cappricio - simply beautiful. I truly heart Natalie - she is such a wonderful vendor and a truly wonderful person. THe harp and violin were just beautiful. I wish I could have heard more.
Maria at Concource de Elegance - hair - I changed my hair style the day of the wedding,a slightly ballsy move, but I had total trust in Maria. She didn't let me down, my hair and all the BMs hair came out amazing A+
Jacqueline Nicole - I wish my makeup could look like this everyday. I was almost shocked when I looked in the mirror. Amazing. A+
LA Blossom - OMG my flowers were beyond amazing. You can see my bok in the pic below. I was floored - she took my ideas and expanded them to be even more elaborate and simply breathtaking. A+
Arcadia - people stopped me to keep telling me how awesome this band was. Even FBIL who said wedding bands were cheesy professed his love for them! A+
Artisan - I love these guys - Chuck, Raffie and Noah were all just awesome. I have to admit I am a goofball in front of the camera and find it impossible not to look goofy (I'm not photogenic at all) - and I really think they did an amazing job getting pics I would love and making me feel at ease. A+ (day of)
Land's End - I can't say enough. Everyone kept stopping me and saying it was the best wedding they ever went to (I'm sure alot of people always say that!). I wish I had a bigger stomach cause the food was all exceptionally delicious, the Bridal Attendent and Maitre D were just amazingly helpful and sweet, the drinks were flowing, and everything went off without a hitch. I am so glad I had my wedding here

Only downside - I wish it was longer! A+++
Mother Nature - A+ - thank goodness we had a nice day. My dream ceremony was outside on the water - and I would have been a little heartbroken if we couldn't have had it outside, but the weather was actually perfect (not even too hot) and the ceremony and CH were outside!
A few pics - I will post more after the HM. Not the best pics but none of my BMs have sent me any of theirs yet
