Just Because...

One of my 2 cousins on my mother's side of the family is getting married the first weekend in May. On the beach, in (BFE, 2 hours south of Tallahassee) Florida. His fiance is a real sweetheart, and I have offered the use of my veil/headpiece if she is interested in using it.

She asked if I had any pictures of it or a description. I have to admit, I had only the foggiest memories of what it looked like: my dress and shoes I can still draw in detail, but the headpiece - very vague. So I asked my parents (where the dress and veil are hanging out in the closet with my mom's wedding dress) to take a couple pictures. Well, in addition to the pictures of the headpiece, they sent a few from our wedding day which illustrate how it(they?) looked in my hair.

And just because I have them right here, I thought I would share one with you.

DH and I after the ceremony but before the reception.

At this point, I really needed to have a drink, eat some food, and to take a long nap. It had been a long day already and the party was just getting started. Thank goodness I had this big, strong, handsome (behind that black dot) guy to help me get through it, and everything else that has come our way!

  2. Oh wow, look at you! You were a gorgeous bride! I remember how hungry and tired I was at that in between time too...I think your body and mind finally calms down after the ceremony and reminds you to eat! :)
