Finally, it's happened to me...

Ok, I've been mentioning my DH and all that, but forgot to mention that I got married last month. The weather, the day couldn't have been better. I had a very small bridal party (BM, MOH, FGs), and we all walked down the aisle to Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring by Grover Washington Jr.

I focused most of my money and attention on the venue, because that was the most important element of my wedding to me. We wanted to marry near the location we met, and wanted a venue that could do ceremony/reception/parking. We even stayed in an old-fashioned suite there on our wedding night. It was the perfect venue for us. I was very low-key about everything else so that I wouldn't be going crazy over every little detail. At first I was on every website, reading every magazine...then I realized that I work FT--I can't get caught up in everything some of these bride(zillas) get bent out of shape about. Everyone said I was the most chill bride they'd ever met, and that our wedding was like having friends over at a house party--and that's just how I'd wanted it to feel. :grin:

And yes, being married is also very nice. :)

Oh, and yes, since this is LHCF, I wore my NATURAL HAIR in a flexi-rod wet-set for the wedding. I'd opted not to press it.

Don't have any professional photos yet, but here are a few.

You are just beaming, absolutely beautiful!! Congratulations, may you two experience all the happiness your hearts can hold!
 
Congratulations on your nuptials and avoiding the Bridezilla tag. I think some weddings become too much about the "event" instead of the joining.
 
CONGRATS!!!

Beautiful!!!!

I love this picture. Everything about it.

Thanks Dlewis--this is my favorite picture so far too. I don't even know what we're laughing at. There were a couple of flubs at the ceremony, LOL.

LOL. And based on the stats, I should have been preparing to live the spinster life and have a better chance being struck by lightening than getting married since I'm 35+, professional, and black LOL.
 
Congrats!!!! The two of you look absolutely stunning and thank you in advance for answering the hair style question...

***I am taking notes*** :grin:
