So amazingly since the wedding I have been overjoyed that IT'S OVER WITH! I haven't blogged, I haven't thought about blogging, I haven't read wedding blogs, my wedding magazine purchasing has come to a halt (thought sometimes I feel a mite tempted, to be honest)....it's just so nice to be married!
But on that note, it was a wonderful wedding. I was determined that it wouldn't go by like a blur, but guess what? It did! A fun, pink and brown blur but a blur nonetheless! In the end, it all went off without a hitch! Not a single hitch. Well, I did get a call from my florist 2 days prior telling me that my white asters came in moldy so she suggested using CARNATIONS! GACK! No offense if you like them but Carnations were not an option. In the end, I put friendly pressure on the situation and let her know I was disappointed in the fact that they weren't offering me any sort of discount for not providing me with what I ordered but ended up getting my white asters! They Fed Exed them! But then they did a horrible job arranging them. My mother in law saved the day with my bouquet though and was able to make it look a little better. At least they were pretty flowers! yay!
And the honeymoon was even better! On our wedding night we ended up being upgraded to the BEST room in the house and they didn't even know we'd just gotten married! But once I told them (after finding out we got the coolest room ever!) they sent up a flower and amazing champagne! We stayed at the Hotel DeLuxe here in Portland, OR. Great hotel!

For our honeymoon we flew to Vancouver, BC, and stayed at the Pacific Palisades for 7 days! Great location to be if you dont' have a car! We took the bus and sky train everywhere...as well as the SeaBus. Very very fun! I got to catch up on my sleep by taking a nap ever day before hitting the city at night! It was wonderful! And they have an awesome pool/health club there.

Anyway! The wedding was a blast! So far I have heard it described as enchanting, whimsical, unique, fun, attention to detail, outstanding, beautiful, funky, etc! Bullseye! Can you believe my photography was FREE? I have awesome friends! (of course I gave them something for it! but it was essentially free!)...the photos look grainy on here because just saved them from my facebook and then reposted them so they're a little weird looking.
Good luck to you all with your wedding planning! It was fun to get all my planning madness out of my head and onto the web!
