It Was Perfect

From start to finish our wedding day was absolutely perfect.  We would not have changed a single thing and feel so lucky to have spent our day and night with so many wonderful family members and friends.

Our perfect family totally pulled through and ROCKED the set-up that was to be done on Friday.  They had over 200 chair covers and sashes ironed and placed on chairs by noon - well before I anticipated we would finish that job.  I hope someone took a picture of our ballroom surrounded by extension cords, irons, and ironing boards!

Our perfect wedding party helped to make our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner so much fun as they helped to take away some of the stress from the day.  The food was perfectly delicious and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.

I got to enjoy one last glass of wine with my sister and college roommates back at the hotel on Friday night.  It was the perfect way to celebrate my last night of single life in the same way we celebrated so many other important life events when living together.  Many laughs were had by all!

The actual wedding day went perfectly according to plan.  Everyone was where they needed to be, when they needed to be there.  We had everything we needed and if anyone forgot anything I never found out.  There were even a couple of points in the day that believe it or not, we were actually ahead of schedule!  Our wedding party, parents, and grandparents all looked amazing.  Paul and I?  We looked pretty amazing too!  :)  The ceremony went perfectly and so many people were there to witness the start of our new life together.

We had a blast taking pictures and the weather cooperated perfectly.  The forecast for the day said it was going to rain in the morning and at 3:00 - the exact times we would be outside taking pictures.  Instead it was the perfect temperature, a bit windy, and there were just enough clouds to keep us from having to squint from the sun.

The reception was beyond amazing.  It was exactly as we had dreamed it would be and yes, absolutely perfect.  We have an amazing scrapbook of pictures from the photo booth and the dance floor was packed all night.  Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves and Paul and I had a blast.

THANK YOU to everyone who was there to celebrate with us, or had to celebrate from afar but was there in spirit.  Our wedding day was beyond perfect and we have all of you to thank.
