You can’t get married on New Year’s Eve and not have a big countdown at midnight!
Once the goody table was set up, our guests snatched up beads, hats and blowers, and the anticipation in the room started to build. I put on the beautiful mask I purchased just for this moment, and glasses of champagne and strawberries were passed around.
Getting help with my mask.
The DJ asked everyone to get ready and we all started cheering. 10, 9 , 8 , 7 , 6 . . .
. . . 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 . . .
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Ringing in the new year as husband and wife, surrounded by all the people we love, was one of the coolest experiences of our lives. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to top a new year like that!
But the party didn’t end there! Up Next: Party Like it’s 2012!
Have you ever been to a holiday wedding or one on New Year’s Eve?

That is so cool! I’ve always wanted to go to a New Year’s Eve wedding. And I love the photo with everyone kissing in the background. 
This looks so fun, I’d looooove to go to a NYE wedding!
This looks like so much fun! Love the last photo where everyone is ringing in the New Year with a kiss.
How cool to say “Hey! we’ve been married since last year”.
I love your mask.
How fun!!! I love NYE parties, I can’t imagine how fun a NYE celebration at a wedding must be!
I think New Year’s Eve is the perfect time to have a wedding! Your mask is perfect!
@Miss Toadstool: I know! I sometimes forget if I got married in 2011 or 2012! How sad is that?! ha ha
I love these photos, what a perfect New Years moment!
What a great time! Everyone loves ringing in the New Year so that plus a wedding = awesome! One of the most fun weddings we’ve been to was a New Years wedding!!
I can imagine that had to feel so cool! Love the last two pics! I bet the energy among the crowd was so exciting!

Mr. Sunhat and I met online three years ago, cheer for rival MLB teams and share a home with our dog, Wrigley. We are planning a traditional, Polish, Catholic wedding with lots of DIY elements and some fun surprises. I'm so excited to be married on New Year's Eve and we can't wait to ring in the new year as husband and wife!
