Our ceremony

our balloon girls

we walked in with an instrumental acoustic version of one of Riley's songs that I love called Coast to Coast.

We laughed a lot. Our friend Ben did an amazing job!

I wrote something for Riley and he sang me a song.

we had our friends & family release the balloons once we shared our first kiss as husband and wife.

We walked out to Wouldn't It Be Nice by the Beach Boys.

Our ceremony lasted about 10 minutes. We were determined to have a fun and stress free wedding, and we definitely accomplished that!

It was truly a magical day. ♥  

Tomorrow I'll be sharing our Mr & Mrs photos!

 

bridesmaids & groomsmen of awesomeness

The Ladies: My sister cristina & goldie

The Gents: Jake, Justin and our awesome friend & officiate Ben.

They were so amazing and we couldn't have done everything without them! 

They helped make it the most perfect day for both of us. 

We love them so much!! ♥

Tomorrow I'll be sharing our ceremony photos!

Wedding Favors & Dessert Table

We got our wedding photos and that means it's time to share them with you!! Today I'm showing photos of our wedding favors and our dessert table. 

We had a small wedding ceremony and then afterwards we had cupcakes and drinks with our friends and family.

As our wedding favors we gave homemade salsa and a cd with Riley's songs to me over the years. We used my illustration of us on the cover of the cd envelope, which we also used for the invitations. I also drew what was on the cd itself (Confession: I didn't draw on them individually. We were able to print the images on them with our magical printer). 

And remember when we were painting jar lids? There they are in action! 

My lovely cousin Cynthia made the delicious cupcakes for us. We had chocolate, vanilla bean and pumpkin cupcakes. 

The wedding ceremony started at 2 so it was fun to wake up and have breakfast with everyone and set up everything. I'm very happy we had a store that we could borrow our tables and displays from! 

Tomorrow I'll be sharing photos of our bridesmaids & groomsmen! 

Have a lovely Monday

sneak peeks

These are some peeks of what we've been working on this week for the wedding. And also, a picture of a very fuzzy looking Dexter. 

Put a lid on it

Yesterday we painted jar lids with chalkboard paint for one of our wedding favors. I was inspired by this being done to a spice jar. 
Have a lovely Thursday!

wedding wednesday// 10 days away

Our wedding is in 10 days. I cannot believe it's just next Saturday! 

On Monday we bought some finishing touches for our attire.

This is the fabric we found to make Dexter's bow tie. He's going to look

so dapper!

Then we found Riley's bow tie and my shoes! 
This week we're figuring out the decor and the small details. I still can't believe it's next week. I can't wait to be Stela Jantzen!
