oh the places you'll go...a few more wedding photos

matthew and i watching as our good friend kathy reads oh the places you'll go by dr. seuss!  if you have not read it i highly suggest...the life message is beautiful!


watering our unity tree while matthew's cousin morgan sings somewhere over the rainbow.













































my beautiful bridesmaids and flower girls. i let my girls pick out their own favorite dresses and ordered vintage parasols from seattle for them to use instead of flowers.























can you see the butterflies floating in the air above us?  our harpist played wind beneath my wings while matthew and i released nearly a dozen butterflies one at a time.  each butterfly memorializing a loved one who could not be there that day.

let me kow if you're getting sick of these yet :)  once i get the pro shots there will be so many to share...i apologize in advance xoxo

  12. I love the idea of the butterflies. I have a little over a year until our wedding and it's very important to me to indicate that just because people are not with us today does not mean they didn't have a big impact on our lives! Love it. Great photos!

  21. REALLY? Could your wedding have been any more beautiful? Not only is your dress gorgeous, so are your bridesmaid's!! Love the parasols.

  22. Loving the pics! I've seen the parasols before, which is a cool alternative to bouquets, but I'm not sure I've heard of having the wedding party pick out their own outfits. And I think that was cool to release the butterflies in memory of the loved ones who couldn't be there.
