One of our fantabulous interns, Natalie, recently got married. This is part one of a series following her through her wedding day. Her day didn’t start out so peachy and we decided to leave that bit because this is a REAL wedding, after all.
The morning of my wedding was all over the place…the getting ready, the terrible feeling I had (not about getting married, but just a terrible feeling) and my amazing bridesmaids.
This is the only hanging dress picture I have because I was doing so not well the morning of my wedding. I just wanted to put the dress on and forgot that my fantastic photographer needed pictures of it. I am dumb, sometimes. Don’t make that mistake.
These are my faboosh wedding shoes. Love love love.
My bouquet…looking back, I’m not sure that I really like it. At the time though, I didn’t notice that I didn’t like it, which is strange because I was totally noticing everything else ever that could’ve possibly made me upset.
My amazing friend, and bridesmaid S, who has just left for Lebanon for a year. Miss her so bad. She was trying to convince that terrible feeling I had to go away, and meanwhile, she did my hair. In fact…
All of my bridesmaids did each other’s hair and make-up, and they all looked awesome. No really. Look.
I stole this picture from facebook, but it’s one of my favorites. It’s Husband’s sister, J, straddling my 6-months-pregnant-at-the- time sister so she could do her make-up. They had just met 2 days before. I love it.
You’ll see how awesome they looked later. Promise. But it was so cool 1. in that all of them were so talented, and 2. in that there were kind of two groups, one from St. Louis and one from Austin/Husband’s sister J from Dallas, so some of them knew each other, but they all just jumped right in to do whatever needed to be done, beautification-wise, for whomever. It was sweet.
So score for free hair and make-up for everyone. If you have bridesmaids as talented as I did, utilize them!
