About Me: I love artistic pursuits of all sorts! I'm creative and organized, but my downfall is obsessing over details. I enjoy running outdoors, trying new restaurants, and staring at décor and wedding magazines for hours on end. I hope to one day design a hotel in a foreign country, preferably France, Greece, Japan, or Australia. I am elated to marry Mr. Licorice and experience life’s adventures with him!

My cousin started things off on the violin.
My sister had an “I’m just so happy I could cry” moment. She’s funny like that. 
Yay! I finally get to see Mr. Licorice!
Mr. Licorice’s oldest sister did a reading.
After the reading, our officiant gave a charge to the immediate family members. To show the answer in the affirmative, they stood. Then they each shared a few words of wisdom with Mr. Licorice and I. Below is a pic from when my dad started to speak. I’m such a sap.
When the family members were finished speaking, our officiant gave the same charge to all of our guests. I adore this visual representation of their love and support for us!
Mr. Licorice had to bust out his vows….
which is cool since I had to do the same. Hehehehe
This is it!
Mr. Licorice calls this “the Money Shot.”
“Mr. and Mrs. Licorice, you are now married! How do you feel?”

i got chills when i looked at the “money shot”!!! priceless!!!!!!!
awesome photos, ESP the “money shot” and the last photo!
i can only hope that my ceremony looks as beautiful and as filled with emotion as yours. really breathtaking!
your ceremony was so beautiful!!!! thank you for sharing your photos– the money shot and the last shot are perfect.
love your dress … who is the designer??
I love the ceremony. Under a big tree was my first pick, but we couldn’t find anything in our area….never mind that it’s Washington.
That’s an awesome kiss!
your ceremony looked amazing!! i love the “money shot” and the fact that your officiant got everyone involved with the standing. i may have to borrow that idea for my own ceremony
Wow, so, so amazing!! Everything looked lovely and your photographer really captured all the great moments!
I’m going to reiterate what everyone else said. I seriously LOVE the “money shot”. It’s like Mr. Licorice couldn’t wait to kiss you! So cute. That last picture is adorable too. So happy and so in love!
You and your wedding looked beautiful. i’m really diggin your bridesmaids dresses. Can you tell me the brand and style? I hope you didn’t already post about this. Thanks!
sl524: I’ve answered this before, but it’s no problem! It’s been a wonderful validation that I picked the right bridesmaid dress! Haha!
It’s Melissa Sweet, style MS109. IMO, the dress isn’t much more expensive than a lot of dresses out there, and it’s much better quality than some selections. It’s made of silk charmeuse, such a dreamy fabric! My sister was considering having her’s lopped off at the knees to make a cocktail dress.
amanda: Thanks! My dress is by Lazaro. It comes with a sash and flower that I saved for the reception.
You have some seriously beautiful wedding photos! You had a great photographer, not to mention a beautiful wedding This might be a dumb question, but what do you mean when you said the officiant “gave a charge”? I like how the standing represents support for the couple, but I’m just not sure how. So, if you could clarify, that would be great!
