yes… we used Martha Stewart tissue paper pom-poms as pew decorations!
if you look closely you can almost see my crinoline that I dyed blue!

once we get back our professional pics - I’ll post those too. 
I can’t believe we’re married!!!!!!!
Is the pig purely decorative or did it serve a purpose? I love it!
You look so happy. And I agree with the first poster these pics look pro.
those pictures are great. i esp love your expression when he goes for your garter. too cute. -)
she is such a fabulous photographer! too bad she doesn’t do it professionally! love her work!
Congratulations, you look wonderful…
wow. in unison with other posters. those pictures are great!
i wonder if i can get away with not hiring a professional. if i can find a friend that photographs like you friend. definitely.
impressed.
oh and whoa i cant believe the garter toss. it looked wild.
wow i think i have the same dress! it’s champagne colored no?
What a beautiful and fun set of pictures!! Your expressions on your face show how excited and happy you are!!
thanks everyone for the compliments 
:D
jessica - yes the pig is there on purpose. my husband’s side is chinese and this is the year of the pig. so our little golden piggie is supposed to bring us good luck 
joanne - my dress is oleg cassini from david’s bridal and yes it is in champagne. i loved it so much
lety - if your friend has experience in photography (with a great camera and multiple lenses) i’d look at their prior photos first and then decide. i would at least have two or more friends with great cameras/lenses if you decide not to hire a professional.
ladies! it’s good to be back and thank you
congrats mrs. poppy!
love your blue crinoline and just wondering if you dyed it yourself or not…and if you did, how you felt about the results!
thanks!

LB - thank you! yes i did dye the blue crinoline according to the directions on the dye package. i loved the results, it didn’t stain my washing machine and the only thing i really had to do is steam it since it was so wrinkled. i’ll try to devote an entry about it
i like the 5th and 6th pictures. fun! and the pig is too cute.
GORGEOUS!! I love your cake. Congrats!
Congrats!!! I promise I’ll upload my pics tonight…
Love love love the dresses! Congrats Miss Poppy! Nice to have ya back. =)

I love how your bridesmaids’ dresses compliment the style of your gown
