Another Wedding!

I ♥ Weddings!! And I ♥ preparing for them!

These are some wedding favors I had fun making for my friend Barbie's wedding and daughter Carolina's Christening that will be on October 8th! Can't wait as I am also the Maid (matron) of honor and get to wear my Lavender Bridesmaid's dress hand made by my sweet Grandma Ivy for my BFF's (Cecily) wedding 12 YEARS AGO AND IT STILL FITS!!!!

Wedding Weekend!

I love weddings! Who doesn't?? Enrico & I went to his friend/colleague's wedding last Saturday. We had so much fun that I even forgot to take pictures!

The reception was at the same resort we had ours at, so it was fun to reminisce right before our 1-year anniversary!

Appetizer buffet...

The seating arrangement couldn't have been more on the ball! All the tables had names of beaches, and our table just happened to be Padang Padang, a beach we just came from in Bali!

Us!

I had to get a picture of the back of this AMAZING evening gown my Mom bought me in Indonesia!

And we danced until 4 am! Just gotta love Big Italian Weddings! ;-)

Ahhhh Weddings.....

Videos

I know you probably are all tired of hearing about our wedding but, on Friday night we had some friends over for dinner and they surprised us with 2 beautiful CD's of photos and videos of the wedding... I was ecstatic! They filmed most part of the ceremony and a bit when we came out of the City Hall. The ceremony part is long and all in Italian, so I skipped to the next video which is short and cute! XOxo

I thought this was funny .......

Wedding pictures story.....

(detail of our wedding theme and decor)

I don't know if you all remember me being very angry with our photographer... well, he forgot to take the most important pictures, which were FAMILY pictures. Enrico & I do not have ONE picture together with our families. Niether does Enrico have a picture with his 2 beautiful sisters and family.... When I went to speak with the potographer he was making up excuses like " I couldn't figure out who the family was" (since we have extened family). DUH! ASK ME AND I WILL GET THE FAMILIES TOGETHER!!!! I was so overwhelmed with the happening event that I wasn't even thinking that those pictures hadn't been taken.

I am so upset and heart-broken that we do not have family pictures. So I still haven't gone to pay and pick-up printed pictures nor the CD. So I have gone ahead and snapped pictures myself of the proofs that are printed small on normal A3 size paper to share a few of the pictures that WERE taken. I hope to have the original soon.....
