I got married last month! It rained, which made me sad 
, but it was still nice. And the photographer did a pretty good job! Some of these are reduced and any photos that don't look clear are all my doing. His originals look great! So as promised, some pictures 
Shoes. You guys voted on them in the Fashion forum!
Earrings, custom ordered from Etsy
Doing my hair, and a nice picture of one of my bridesmaid:
Since we are LHCF, another hair prep shot
There was an issue with the dress. The alterations dept took off or forgot to replace or something the hook on my dress! So it had no hook. My bridesmaids had to make a kind of impromptu hook with sting and a button or something. But they managed:
At this point it was raining off and on and I still had hope that we could take pictures downtown at the Chicago museum campus, so I was still happy
But then it started to rain harder, and that part of the photos had to be cancelled. Which really almost made me cry. So we just went back to the venue and took pictures there. I had to smile through the pain
Did I mention my bridesmaids and I made our own bouquets? We did!
At this point, DH wasn't even there yet. He misunderstood "downtown photos off, meet at venue for photos" to mean he could come much later. Well, he did come in time for enough photos. I'll post more in the next post.

but they also said I can call on them for anything, and my family said many nice things, too. It was all very touching 
You and your spouse make a handsome couple--and you were such a lovely bride!
