I managed to make it through getting dressed without a nervous breakdown. Mac and his groomsmen were dressed and wandering around. My bridesmaids and photographers headed outside for a few pictures while my mother wrestled a safety pin out of my bustle. From there, we had our official “first look.”
Mac and I saw each other several times on our wedding day, so our first look wasn’t a big surprise. He turned around to see my dress for the first time.
Then, we moved on to a few pictures with our bridal party.
Before we knew it, it was time to get hitched!
Our wedding weekend:
Friday, we rehearsed, relaxed over dinner, and hosted an open house. Wedding morning dawned bright and early, we got prettified, then had our first look. We waited for some guests and headed down the aisle. Our ceremony was short and sweet, we finished our family portraits, and then took some bridal party photos. At our reception, we were introduced, ate dinner, raised a few toasts, visited our guests, shared special dances, and didn’t smash our cake. Our married friends enjoyed an anniversary dance, and we embarrassed our single friends. Next, we rounded them up for some group shots then snuck out for some private moments while they danced the night away. We partied til the end, packed up the car, and enjoyed a quiet night in our home. Sunday, we said goodbye over brunch and drove into the sunset to an Outer Banks honeymoon.
