Taking pictures (and more pictures) is what a wedding is all about, so here is part 2 of Strike a Pose! We decided to rent some vintage inspired lamp posts to recreate a park, circa the 1950s.
The result was beautiful pics with an awesome backdrop.
My sisters
We seriously had a blast taking pictures with our guests. It was the beginning of a movement (if I can call it that). People were standing in line to take pictures of us; it was like we were some famous rock stars signing autographs. Rock on!

I was lucky that two of my grandparents were able to share this special day with us. Mr. Flamingo’s grandparents passed away when he was just a little boy. Mommy Flamingo’s daddy was with us, and Daddy Flamingo’s mommy was there, too. They were so happy to witness this special day, and we were even happier to share it with them.

I feel extremely lucky to have both my mom and my step-mom… that’s double mommy goodness, and the fact that they are such great friends made it so much easier. There were no fights, no issues with seating arrangements, just love.

My new family 
My high school friends made it to my wedding! Who knew we would stick together after all this time (14 years is a very long time!). I was the first one to get married, and let me tell you, they partied like there was no tomorrow. LOL!
My cheeks hurt so much because of the permanent smile on my face. I constantly heard, “It’s your wedding day, say cheese!”
