Glamnuptials: Prep Time

August 19th, 2008 @ 4:00 pm by Mrs. Flamingo

When I woke up, the first thing I did was go immediately on the computer to blog for Weddingbee. Yes yes, who blogs on their wedding day… apparently me. With all the excitement of the last preparations, I had forgotten to write my last post as a Miss and it was a must on my to-do list. Then it was weather check time. It rained all week but for some miraculous reason, it did not rain one bit on our wedding day. I had the most perfect day ever!

Our day schedule was quite tight, but do-able. First stop, the hairdresser. It was extremely fun being at the hairdresser with my sisters (BM) and my cousin (MOH) and everyone was looking great. One thing though, I forgot my veil at home so my awesome cousin filled her duties as MOH. She went back to my place to grab my veil.

Once I got back home, my good friend was there ready to put my makeup on - false lashes and all. Basically the same look as my first trial but in the pink tones. I let her do her magic… and I loved how I looked. I felt like a million dollars. I’m a makeup freak and could have done it myself, but instead in order to destress, I decided to do my sister’s makeup.

Once everyone was ready, it was my turn. The photographer finally arrived and the videographer was there too… it felt all so surreal but exciting at the same time.

Glamnuptials: Prep Time :  wedding montreal pictures recap Ipi 021I was all set and ready to go. My daddy came with me in our vintage 1959 Bentley so that I wouldn’t be alone on my way to the church. At this point I was getting nervous… but still holding it together. Breath in , Breath out. ;)

Vintage Bentley’s are so yummy. I’m not usually a car lover, but I am having some car envy over that one!
