Our Long 9/30/06 Wedding Review w/ MORE PRO PICS: The Crescent Beach Club, Perceptions Photography, Anne Demarco Cosmetics, Royalty and more
Original post by chapel06
Thank goodness I found this site, because it helped me focus and get over that overwhelmed feeling I had at the thought of planning a wedding. With the help of this site I didn’t feel like I was in it alone, so thank you, liweddings. My wedding day was the best day of my life, but it was a blur. The morning seemed to drag by, but once the photographer got to my house someone hit the fast forward button and before I knew it we were in the limo heading to our hotel. I was by my husband’s side the entire night and the look of joy and love on his face was all that mattered and all I needed to experience on my wedding day. Everything below is my opinion of how the night went based on what I observed and I was told by others.
All photos are the work of Anthony Vazquez from Perceptions Photography, unless otherwise noted
Weather During the ten days before my wedding the forecast changed daily and sometimes, to my surprise and frustration, twice a day. The morning was sunny, but by the time we got to the church, the sky was filled with clouds and it was cold. It remained cloudy for the rest of the day, but it never rained and that’s all I could ask for. Surprisingly, it warmed up a bit as it got later into the evening and a lot of people were outside on the balconies. Our guests were so great during the cocktail hour and the reception about going outside when it was colder than average. They were troopers! My two little cousins even wet their feet in the ocean during the cocktail hour.
Invitations and Save the Dates You’re Invited Too I met Tara at a bridal showcase at the Woodlands. I liked that she was a young woman running her own business (she was an ‘06 bride herself) and she wasn’t at all pushy. So, she was the first person I called when it came time to order save the dates and invitations. She comes to your house with a car load full of invitation books and you can look through them at your pace and in the comfort of your own home. She was very helpful and was quick to point out the differences in many invitations as supposed to trying to sell me on everything. She is a former wedding planner and she gave us little tips about planning a wedding. The one problem we had was that the save the dates were a mix of dark silver and white and when they went through the mail the dark silver ink bled onto the white parts. When I notified Tara, she contacted the manufacturer and got us a discount. I loved my invitations and they weren’t like any invitation I had seen before. When they arrived, we were missing some envelopes, but when I contacted Tara she had them sent to us right away and she even had them throw in some tissue paper that we hadn’t ordered, but my mother decided later we had to have.
