07/23/2011 was the absolute best day of my life! In fact, that whole week, and the week after too. I am married to the most amazing, kind hearted, genuine man on this Earth. We're still on cloud nine and it's like we just met all over again. My mom gave a sweet speech and I hope we will live by this.
"My greatest wish for the two of you is that through the years your love for each other will so deepen and grow, that years from now you will look back on this day, your wedding day, as the day you loved each other the least."
Of course it made me bawl. I love that last part. I love Nick now more than the very day I met him and my love for him only grows more and more each day.
We got married in Florida with our awesome friends and family by our side. The weather thankfully cooperated and it was just a fun, fun time all around. Looks like we missed a helluva party after the reception, but we of course wanted some alone time ;)
We're so fortunate for everyone who came, and took time out of their busy schedules to help us celebrate our special day. We hope everyone had as much fun as we did.
Having fun on the beach
We had a Texas themed rehearsal dinner (of course I had to bring some southern flair to Florida) at the cottages where everyone stayed. Nick's parents hired a band so everyone danced, sang, ate and drank the night away.
