About Me: I'm a Philly native creating roots deep in the heart of Texas. I might be a little obsessed capturing those Kodak moments of anything and everything (mainly on vacations). I've become more of a gamer thanks to Mr. Elephant, who I met online and can't wait to spend the rest of my life with. We are planning a wedding based on our favorite colors, blue and green, with a travel theme for 150 of our closest friends and family. Hopefully our long (2-year) engagement won't kill me!
Dance, dance, dance…
With the dance floor open, our guests found their groove.

After our toasts it was time to take a spin around the dance floor with Daddy E to Louis Armstrong’s What A Wonderful World.
I don’t know what it was, but the second this song started…

Once we cut into the cake it was time to pass out the champagne for MOH Navy and Groomsman Runner to make their toasts.
MOH Navy made a joke about how I made her wait 755 days to give her speech.

As is pretty traditional in Southern weddings, we had two cakes at our reception. The traditional wedding cake and a chocolate groom’s cake.
The travel cake consisted of 3 tiers white chocolate with raspberry filling, white chocolate with apricot filling, and strawberry cake with strawberry filling. It was topped off with our little luggage bags.

Once we finished our first dance, Daddy E took the microphone to welcome all of our guests.
He did a great job, and didn’t keep it too long-winded, which he can sometimes do when he’s excited.

While we were outside narrowly beating the storm clouds for those last couple of shots, our guests were inside the venue enjoying passed appetizers and cocktails.

Directly following our pronouncement as husband and wife, Mr. E and I walked a separate path than our bridal party to soak in those first married moments alone.
We couldn’t stop laughing at me being Mr. E’s “lawfully wedded life.”

After the meditation of marriage covenant it was time to exchange vows.
“I, Christopher, affirm my love to you, Lauren, as I invite you to be my lifelong partner. I promise to love you faithfully, to respect and cherish you, and to be your closest and most constant friend. I will treat you with kindness, selflessness, and trust, and I will strive to build the warm, rich life we look forward to sharing.

Once we made it down the aisle we were ready to begin our ceremony.
My family has known Revered Rosset since we found our family church shortly after moving to Texas in 1995. It was an honor to have her travel from another state to officiate over our wedding and even more so to see how our union touched her as well.

With the bridal party in place at the gazebo it was time for Daddy E and I to make a walk that he has been so excited about since the day Mr. E popped the question.
We walked down to Somewhere Over the Rainbow played on the steel drums. I still tear up whenever this song comes up on my iPod.

To set the stage for our ceremony, I think it’s best to show some of the details that made the space so special to Mr. E and me.

I know that looking at 20 million posed pictures of our family and friends isn’t the most exciting thing to do, so I’ve tried to narrow it down to my top 10 fun favorites. Our friends and family are pretty good looking. 
Side note: I’m not normally this much shorter than everyone else. Since I would have sunk in the grass with how long I was standing there for pictures I opted to take off my heels.
Love my girls!

When we first met with our photographer Lynn back in 2009, we already knew that we were going to do a first look. We were really excited to see each other before the ceremony, and hopefully calm any nerves. Mr. E had his back to me as I walked towards him from the building.
Lynn had us stand back to back. By now (in my recaps), you’ve seen me cry at the rehearsal, the dinner and while getting ready so it should be no surprise that without actually seeing Mr. E’s face, I was already having a hard time keeping the tears at bay.
