We knew early on in our wedding planning that we wanted to have a first look. Not only did our first look give us tons of time to take pics with our family, wedding party, and each other, but it was also a wonderful moment for the two of us to share.
Before our first look I was so giddy and excited to finally see Mr. CC—to hug him and share the moments leading up to our wedding ceremony together. When I saw him on the lawn of the city library, all I wanted to do was bum rush him and wrap him up in a big bear hug! Thankfully I listened to our photog Heidi and took it slow as a means to give her enough time to capture some of my favorite moments of our whole wedding day.
Doesn’t he look so handsome? LOVE this man!
Seriously, could my smile get any bigger? My cheeks hurt just looking at this pic!
I was so excited to finally get to show off my dress to Mr. CC! I had the teeny tiniest feeling that he might not like the poofiness and fluffiness of my dress. As you can see in the pic above, he very much approved!
So giddy to finally be together on our wedding day!
This pic says it all. I couldn’t have been more happier in that one moment on that perfectly imperfect day. After all the sadness and stress leading up to our wedding day we were finally together, hours away from finally being man and wife.
Up next, we’re reunited with our family and friends, and one of the best wedding decisions we made!

Mrs. Cotton Candy, Riverside, CA Age and Occupation: 29, Field Coordinator Fiance's Age and Occupation: 34, Process Server Engagement Date: July 5, 2007 Wedding Date: June 2011 Venue: Riverside Art Museum About Me: I’m a girl in love with her best friend planning a small mid-century modern inspired wedding that’s been a long time coming. I love all things design, sewing, flea markets, and a good book. I’ve been known to swoon over a well-designed chair and often find myself craving a new addition to my chair collection regardless of the lack square footage in our home. I’m Mexican American girl who hates all things spicy but loves her rowdy Mexican family and her Latin roots. My wedding muses may not be your typical wedding superstars, but with a lot of DIY, a dash of offbeat style, and lots of love and laughs, Mr. Cotton and I plan to create a day that is unmistakably us.
