Original post by Jordan
(Sorry for all the posts...wouldn't let me fit it all in one post.)
Everyone told us the day would fly by...I just never realized how fast a day could really whip past you. I was happy to have a late ceremony - 6:30...gave me the day to relax with friends and family...eat...
Pre-Wedding details...
I purchased my gown and mantilla from Paradise Bridal in Patchogue. Donna was a doll to deal with...but once I purchased and was measured (hallow to hem), I began dealing with the manager, Liz. My gown came in almost 1 1/2 inches too SHORT...instead of putting PB through the cost and hassle of ordering another gown for me, I decided to find shoes with a lower heel. How hard could that be? Found the most perfect shoes - again - and the dress was STILL too short. By this time, the designer was closing shop so hopes of me getting a new gown, were shattered. After a bit of stressing, I found some shoes that while they were extremely comfortable, were so unsexy. Even on my wedding day, I gritted my teeth and cursed PB for their lack of proper measurement and the stubborn seamstress who originally measured me. But in the end, Rosalie did my alterations and the 7 point bustle and I could NOT have been happier with my dress. She did a fantastic job.

I gave our two FG's a disposable camera each...with a little 'task' poem attached to it - asking each of them to take certain pictures throughout the night (5 each). They had a blast doing it and took some great shots. The scan quality isn't that great - they look much better in person...but here are a few.
Decent shot of my bustle...
Cake shot...

Close-up of CP - the colors are off...the reds were darker, richer, in person (there wasn't any pink in them - some of the dahlia's photographed hot pink) & boxed favors...

LOL That's *exactly* what it was like...an ordinary day, checking out some flowers, eating some food, lounging......until the FG's walked down the aisle and the doors closed behind them - in preparation for me t walk down. Yowser - it all hit me then.
