our five year anniversary is two months from today and i thought i’d reminisce along with absolute mommy today as she celebrates her seventh wedding anniversary, congrats! our wedding day was magical, except for the outrageous heat, our officiant being an hour late and our florist botching a good amount of our flowers but once we got passed all that it was everything we hoped for. we got married at mt. woodson golf club on june 30, 2007. every element was carefully planned and designed by yours truly. i wanted a gown that was made for a princess and i got it. the train was out of control long, but unique because it was scalloped, once bustled (which was so heavy) it was even more gorgeous. i was lucky enough to wear my dress three times: wedding and two trash the dress sessions. my pre-wedding wear consisted of a victoria’s secret wedding day hoodie and sweats pant while my make-up was done by chloé from MAC. my wedding dress was by jasmine bridal purchased at jinny’s bridal, my shoes stuart weitzman and jewelry was from nordstrom. my seven bridesmaids wore espresso brown alfred angelo a-line gowns with custom sashes made by my friends mom. it’s crazy how five years have (almost) come and gone and how it feels like yesterday when i married my best friend. p.s. who is that girl pictured below? holy get back on the program melissa!
my mommy looked amazing!
love you jamesy!
