Walking on Sunshine: Becoming a Bride

December 5th, 2011 @ 11:19 am by Ms. Gazelle

With my makeup done and my somethings taken care of it was now time to get dressed! Around this time I also realized just how late we were running. I think this is right where BM-D is telling me not to worry and to just enjoy everything.

I slipped into my dress and the girls started to lace up my corset.

Bridesmaid D is a corset master! This is one of my favourite photos of D from the day.

While I was getting laced up I read a note Mr. Gazelle had left behind for me. We didn’t exchange gifts but we did exchange notes. I think we were both afraid to say too much and give away our best material that we could use in our vows but I loved reading Mr. Gazelle’s note.

It was then time to try and rig my beloved hair flower! I had tried super gluing it and it still didn’t hold. I was ready to leave it behind but my girls and the photographer were determined to get it to work.
