Wow Caryn, that sure is a tough decision!!! They all look gorgeous! :lovestruc I personally like #6. I love the way you two are looking back and you both look genuinely happy.
figmentfan0724
02-16-2008, 10:26 AM
my vote is for number 6..simply gorgeous pics!
topsy
02-16-2008, 10:26 AM
WOW! Your photos are stunning! I like 1, 5 and 6, but I think 1 is my favourite. Can't wait to see the rest of them!
OceanGdss
02-16-2008, 10:29 AM
I like 2 & 5 :)
Desnik
02-16-2008, 10:41 AM
I vote for #6!!! I love all the pictures but that one is my favorite! You both look fantastic!
I have to add that I did really like #1 too because you can see both your faces so clearly, but I just couldn't get over the elephant in the background!LOL
I also have to ask, was that bouquet 50lbs!! I have never seen anything so big and beautiful but I know how heavy that can be. Was it bothersome? How many roses were there?
donald&daisy
02-16-2008, 10:56 AM
I like number 1
FIREFLY01
02-16-2008, 11:06 AM

camara381
02-16-2008, 11:59 AM
I vote for #6
Did I mention you are the most gorgeous bride I have ever seen? Both of you look fabulous together - great couple.
Long time lurker on these boards jumping in! (My DD is planning a wedding Oct. 2009 - but not at Disney. I've been gleaming knowledge from all of you!:goodvibes )
I love #6!! But they are all terrific photos!!:)
BayouPrincess
02-16-2008, 12:31 PM
OMG CARYN!:scared1:
Those pics are amazing! I think I'm casting my vote for #6. ALthough they are all gorgeous. Randy is amazing, I believe he had great subjects to work with as well. You and Mark are very photogenic. Of the other photos you posted, the first one is a knock out! WOW! and I love the last one "in pieces" that's just freakin' amazing!
jacqu3lin3
02-16-2008, 01:20 PM
I vote for number 6#......However, they are all stunning!!!
JoJo1980
02-16-2008, 01:44 PM
WOW! You look beautiful! You're pictures are lovely, I think my faves are #1 and #6 - If i've got to pick just one then it would be #1, I think the water sprinkles make it look really pretty & he looks like he's holding you so gently!
Dolce27
02-16-2008, 01:50 PM
Another lurker popping in: I like #6
Maddiesmum03
02-16-2008, 01:59 PM
another vote for number 6, it really says "we've just got married!" and you both look really pleased with yourselves!
as everyone has already stated, all your photos are stunning, you looked beautiful. I'm soo happy we have Randy for our wedding, though he may have to do some soft focus photography to meake me look as good LOL!!!!
Lisella
02-16-2008, 02:19 PM
So exciting! These pictures are amazing. I vote #6 for the thank-you's. Its a great shot of both of you, both looking so happy, and not in a typical pose - perfect!
angel*lady
02-16-2008, 02:21 PM
Caryn,
Your photos are absolutely gorgeous! :thumbsup2 What a tough choice! I like #1 but I REALLY like #6. :goodvibes It is a great photo of the two of you but also showcases your whole look with your beautiful dress, wrap and birdcage. The entire package! Anyway, no matter which one you choose - you can't go wrong! I can't wait to see the rest! :cool1:
Tabetha
02-16-2008, 02:38 PM
Caryn, your photos are gorgeous! They make me so pleased that we're using Randy for our shots - your portait is absolutely beautiful!
geetey
02-16-2008, 03:04 PM
Wow! Wow!! and WOW!!!
Your pictures are simply breathtaking, Caryn! I agree - the car photo is a fav!! You look like a movie star!!
Any of the pictures you posted would be great to include *but* since it is a thank you note, I think #6 is the best! Like someone else mentioned, it just screams - "Just Married and SO Happy!!"
I think this makes it even harder to wait for all of the Randy pictures!
Eeyore's Tailfinder
02-16-2008, 03:46 PM

Oh, my Goodness!!! Stunning, sweetie! Just absolutely stunning!
disneychickforever
02-16-2008, 04:47 PM
Oh Caryn, they are all so beautiful...
I like 2 and 6....
2 because the Boardwalk is where it all began, and it seems like the perfect way to wrap up you're wedding.
6 because it looks like you are looking back after the wedding saying the thanks....
Now between the two, I don't know which I'd pick, lol, but those are my faves.
Missy Mouse
02-16-2008, 05:08 PM
I vote for #6 too. They're all gorgeous, though. I can't wait to see more!!
hope1826
02-16-2008, 05:11 PM
WOW!! Everyone is right!! It is super hard to pic the best one. They all look great! If I have to choose only one, it's #6, for the same reason everyone else said.
And I love the pic of you in the car!
Iluffyou
02-16-2008, 05:38 PM
I vote #6! I'm not sure if I commented before but I loved everything you chose for your wedding, simply beautiful. :)

02-16-2008, 09:33 PM
Wow! your pictures are beautiful! but I guess it helps when the bride is already beautiful to begin with :) My favorite is actually your favorite - the one of you in the car

Wow... absolutely beautiful pictures... the camera loves you two...
My fav is the one of you in the car too... :)

#2!! :banana:

02-17-2008, 10:17 AM
What beautiful pictures. My personal fave is number 1
Kristinella
02-17-2008, 01:40 PM
Simpy AMAZING!!! The two of you look great! I LOOOVE the picture of you in the car, now only if you and mark were both in there...since you two are not I must go with my gut and say #2. They are all wonderful but you can't put them all on your thank yous so it has to be #2!!!
Oh and posting these may be borderline mean because they are so good that it is going to be even harder to wait the arrival of all your pics...anxiously waiting...and not so patiently :rolleyes1

I like one and six. They're all gorgeous, though, and you two are beautiful together. I love the shot of you in the car with your veil-- stunning! I think Mark kind of looks like Keifer Sutherland...very handsome!

02-17-2008, 03:33 PM
Guess I'm in agreement with everybody else #6!
Great pics!
mermaidbride1108
02-17-2008, 03:39 PM
Caryn,
I really like Number 1, I like the water effect coming down. But I like Number 6 for Thank you cards because your walking away and its like the wedding is over.
That might not make sense, but those are my votes!
2002Disneybride
02-17-2008, 09:15 PM
I have to agree with everyone-simply beautiful pictures!

Number 5 and 6 are my favorites, however all the pictures are amazing.. especially love the artist picture of the one when you were in the car. great pictures. i bet you can't wait to get the rest of them from Randy.

02-17-2008, 10:20 PM

I love the one of you in the limo,it's so old fashioned I love it!!!
mermaidbride1108
02-17-2008, 11:55 PM
I forgot to say when I voted how good your pics turned out! You look really glamourous in your dress with your accessories and I think Randy definitely captured your look really well in your pictures .... If that makes sense to anyone!
Well, I am so happy I booked Randy now!!! Because I love your pictures!!!
caryndisneydiva
02-18-2008, 12:20 AM
thank you ladies for all of your input...we ordered picture #2 from snapfish, i made it black and white for note cards and i'm anxiously awaiting their arrival so i can get them done with already!!!!!!!
i liked pic #6 better but when i showed it to mark he didn't like it...oh well! i can't wait to get the rest of his pictures! i'm going to make a HUGE blurb book for our wedding album and i'm going to attempt to make a renaissance album as well...
Chilly
02-18-2008, 06:26 AM
D'oh got in too late to vote, I would have said number 6 though with number 1 the runner up.
They are all lovely though, you must be so excited to get the rest.
Goldeelox9
02-18-2008, 12:54 PM
Caryn! OMG You look like a Hollywood Movie Star! Your Pictures are AMAZING! I would like to vote for 1 and 5....But you said you get 30 something pictures....We want to see the rest!!!!!

I love your pose in Number 4 (I should have stolen it for my pictures) it makes you look like a chic Dior "New Look" model from the '50s!

Your pictures came out gorgeous! I absolutely love all of them! So hard to pick! Thanks so much for sharing them with us!
caryndisneydiva
02-20-2008, 06:57 PM
I think Mark kind of looks like Keifer Sutherland...very handsome!
thanks! that's so funny, i can't wait to show him...i always thought he looked like a cross between ben affleck and ricky martin when we first met...
Caryn,
I really like Number 1, I like the water effect coming down.
we asked him to do that at the pool because that is where we met!
Ooh! Ooh! Number 4! And the one in the car!
I love your pose in Number 4 (I should have stolen it for my pictures) it makes you look like a chic Dior "New Look" model from the '50s!
dior is my new designer, it used to be chanel because my old initials were cc, but now they're cd (not that i'm legally changing my name, but i told him i'd informally use his-compromise), so that gives me just one more excuse to buy a saddle bag :woohoo:
That was gorgeous. What a beautiful bride you were. The music was very fitting. I can't wait for more.
that wasn't even music that i gave her, i'm not sure where she got it from!

Oh, my goodness, Caryn! I just watched the video and I sitting here crying. How beautiful it all was. I just loved seeing your face and Mark's during the ceremony. That one part where he looks at you? Remember that moment forever, sweetie. Seriously, when things are rough (and every couple has their moments), think of all the love you saw in his face that day and how it felt when you put your hand over his. Keep those memories strong and those feelings alive. I couldn't be happier for you and the joy you have both found in each other. :hug:

Beautiful, stunning, gorgeous...there aren't enough adjectives in the dictionary for that There were a few times where I could have sworn it was Audrey Hepburn getting married. You were that breathtaking and stylish, Well done, cherish the memories forever.
Poohnatic
02-20-2008, 11:04 PM
Caryn, that video is spectacular. You look so elegant, your husband is precious and I loved the images of you walking with your sisters (so very sweet).
It almost makes me wish I was doing a wedding today instead of 11 years ago. Almost! (that's high praise indeed)
Now I'm wondering if Lindsay will have an easier time because you led the way or a harder time because she'll feel like she has to do everything differently!

Beautiful, stunning, gorgeous...there aren't enough adjectives in the dictionary for you.
Agreed! :thumbsup2 You already know how I feel about your wedding Caryn. You put a lot into it and it really shows. As far as you and you presence... I have no words. :worship:
Boy that's a lot to live up to!!! (I'm starting to feel some pressure)
I started to worry about you right off the bat, Lindsay... you've got such a great resource, but it's sooo hard. How do you decided what route to take. You know it was tempting to emulate Caryn throughout the planning process, but I think you need to (unsolicited advice coming here) plan your own, unique wedding experience and call on Caryn as needed (duh, as if you didn't already know all this!) I'm sure you and 'ray-bar' :laughing: will have an amazing wedding as perfect, and different, as Caryn's! :flower3:

WENDY!!! You're so nice!!!:flower3:
Immediately when I saw Caryn that morning I got nervous. How do I match that? Then I realized that I couldn't and I really didn't want to. Being the middle child (you can just call me Jan) I've followed Caryn my whole life... so I always try to be different (I was the bad one, coming home with tattoos and things :scared1: ) The best thing about Caryn's wedding was that it was BEAUTIFUL, but also not what we wanted. So we can be different without really having to try. There will be some things I'll keep (the pink crinnie, because it's already dyed!!!) but most things will be different.
Thanks again Wendy

I know I'm super far behind, but I just got a chance to look at your pictures and at the video. How beautiful :goodvibes I would have voted for #1 because of the water effect.
Did you give Randy a list of specific shots that you wanted in advance? I am thinking about doing this, but I only have 1 week left until I leave :scared1: The video is beautiful too, did you have 1 or 2 camera coverage? They got some really cool angles in their shots, so I was wondering if there was only one camera person (I work in TV ;) )
camara381
02-21-2008, 01:43 PM

I've been trying to catch up with you, Carrie, and Wendy all the way back to when you were all planning, and now you're married! I've been reading a little each day at work and I finally made it through. You were absolutely stunning!! I can't believe how perfect everything looked! I'm so sorry it was stressful leading up to it, but it still sounds like you had a wonderful wedding. I'm so happy for you! Congratulations!!! :goodvibes
Oh yeah.. I watched your video and it made me tear up. It's just beautiful!!

Keep those memories strong and those feelings alive. I couldn't be happier for you and the joy you have both found in each other. :hug:
oh cam! you're so sweet! thank you!
Caryn - O.M.G. You look stunning. The video was wonderful! It was like a movie.....Very fitting for the Movie Star Bride!
thanks! i can't wait to see your wedding, i keep thinking about it...i can't to see pics from the cruise...
Beautiful, stunning, gorgeous...there aren't enough adjectives in the dictionary for that There were a few times where I could have sworn it was Audrey Hepburn getting married. You were that breathtaking and stylish, Well done, cherish the memories forever.
thank you! i love audrey, she is fantastic! that is a huge compliment!
Caryn, that video is spectacular. You look so elegant, your husband is precious and I loved the images of you walking with your sisters (so very sweet).
It almost makes me wish I was doing a wedding today instead of 11 years ago. Almost! (that's high praise indeed)
Now I'm wondering if Lindsay will have an easier time because you led the way or a harder time because she'll feel like she has to do everything differently!
Suzanne
the one with my sisters is my fave part of the video! i just love it! i don't even think i remember those shots...
Caryn I swear you should be a movie star!! Gorgeous,I am speechless!!!!
thanks lynn!
The video is gorgeous!
thank you!!! she did an amazing job!
As I repeat all thats been said, Caryn, WOW, that is absolutely stunning and it was only a preview of what's to come. I can't wait to see more. You look amazing beautiful and both, you and Mark look so happy. Thank you for sharing with us.
i can't wait either! i hope i get my video soon!
Agreed! :thumbsup2 You already know how I feel about your wedding Caryn. You put a lot into it and it really shows. As far as you and you presence... I have no words. :worship:
I started to worry about you right off the bat, Lindsay... you've got such a great resource, but it's sooo hard. How do you decided what route to take. You know it was tempting to emulate Caryn throughout the planning process, but I think you need to (unsolicited advice coming here) plan your own, unique wedding experience and call on Caryn as needed (duh, as if you didn't already know all this!) I'm sure you and 'ray-bar' :laughing: will have an amazing wedding as perfect, and different, as Caryn's! :flower3:
WENDY!!! You're so nice!!!:flower3:
Immediately when I saw Caryn that morning I got nervous. How do I match that? Then I realized that I couldn't and I really didn't want to. Being the middle child (you can just call me Jan) I've followed Caryn my whole life... so I always try to be different (I was the bad one, coming home with tattoos and things :scared1: ) The best thing about Caryn's wedding was that it was BEAUTIFUL, but also not what we wanted. So we can be different without really having to try. There will be some things I'll keep (the pink crinnie, because it's already dyed!!!) but most things will be different.
Thanks again Wendy
your wedding WILL be different...we don't have the same tastes, so don't worry! your locations are completely different than mine, so i think the weddings will be totally different...
Caryn -- I am dying to hear Mark's reaction to the video! :love:
he cried! i probably shouldn't post that, but he did...
I know I'm super far behind, but I just got a chance to look at your pictures and at the video. How beautiful :goodvibes I would have voted for #1 because of the water effect.
Did you give Randy a list of specific shots that you wanted in advance? I am thinking about doing this, but I only have 1 week left until I leave :scared1: The video is beautiful too, did you have 1 or 2 camera coverage? They got some really cool angles in their shots, so I was wondering if there was only one camera person (I work in TV ;) )
vanessa, i didn't give him a list of shots, i just told him what i wanted on that day. i wasn't too picky with him..
Ok so I just watched the video:surfweb: here at work...I am speechless!!! It is so amazing!!! You are guys the most beautiful couple ever..
This is my favorite shot, I just love the way he is looking at you
http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh294/camara381/ScreenShot062.jpg
how'd you do that with the video? i'm so computer dumb sometimes, it's amazing that i can even post pics...
i think he was looking at me in amazement because i was crying, which is very un-caryn like...
OMG Caryn - that video was amazing! It made me tear up! You looked so beautiful :bride:
thanks catherine!
So Lindsay, are you ready for your big wedding to 'ray-bar'?
Caryn how did Mark respond?
tears...he responded with tears. i was shocked really...
i can't wait for lindsay's wedding. it'll be great to witness those 2 kids get married and i've never been in a wedding, so this should be fun! one of the other bm's and i are already planning things AND i'm going to try dresses on this weekend!
I've been trying to catch up with you, Carrie, and Wendy all the way back to when you were all planning, and now you're married! I've been reading a little each day at work and I finally made it through. You were absolutely stunning!! I can't believe how perfect everything looked! I'm so sorry it was stressful leading up to it, but it still sounds like you had a wonderful wedding. I'm so happy for you! Congratulations!!! :goodvibes
Oh yeah.. I watched your video and it made me tear up. It's just beautiful!!
thanks pez! if i had any advice for other brides, its to not stress, it really will ruin your day...

Good, good, good! I was just worried, ya know, that people (family/dis people??) were going to expect you to do what Caryn did. To which I would don my :cool2: It sound like you've already sorted through those issues though (Jan! :laughing:), which I figured, but I still have a little of that worry wart in me. :headache: Just wanted to lend my support. :hug:

Hi again, Disney brides!
We just received the link to Randy's pictures of Caryn & Mark's wedding and they are wonderful. Caryn was the most beautiful bride I've ever seen. And as Mark's mom, I can say without any prejudice that he made one gorgeous groom.
Caryn commented awhile back on his resemblence to a couple of movie stars. When he was a lifeguard in the Disney College Program, some of of the female guests at the resort where he worked told him he looked like Tom Cruise. Maybe in profile, but if you lived with him like his parents - and saw his room (not a pretty picture!) - you'd have a hard time believing that!
Now we are looking forward to Caryn's sister, Lindsay, getting married. We met her fiance, Chris, at the wedding, and totally approve. We can't wait for April '09 to return to Disney World for another wedding. Go for it, Lindsay! This is YOUR wedding - do it your way. You are a delightful person, and so is Chris (as I think I told you several times at Caryn's wedding!). We are looking forward to being there, so you'd better invite us.:lmao:

Your pictures are sooo good! I love them all, how in the world will you be able to pick!
i'm not going to pic, i'm going to make 2 albums! a huge blurb book and a renn album!
hi c - those are amazing pictures. randy did so well. There are some really great ones of our family - mom will prob use those in her xmas pic :scared: . I cant wait to see an album. those pictures def maximized our fun potential.
i'll make you a blurb book meg!
Gorgeous Caryn! You were a beautiful bride, flawless!
thanks sandy! i keep trying to look at the bw ones to see if you're in any of them!
caryn your pics are amazing...i cannot wait to get mine...tho i feel i might have a long time to wait :(
he's super busy i know, but it's fun, because now, most of my wedding drama has died down, so the pics make life slightly more exciting again!
Oh, and I have to say I TOTALLY picked out Mark's bussiness partrners and their dates in your reception pix.... what a crack-up! :rotfl:
yeah. how can you miss those 2? to be fair, one of them is really nice, but i think she's like 10 years younger than me...the other one (in the dress) has a CHILD. i am so jealous of her. i hope i look that good after i give birth. anyway, i'm glad there are pictures of the denim atrocity, because some people didn't believe that he actually did that...
Caryn...
I saw your pics on Randy's site last night. Normally I get bored after looking at about 20 pics but I think I looked through almost all of yours. They are really beautiful, and unique as well. Congratulations again!
thank you! i haven't even looked through all of them yet because his site keeps messing up on my laptop!
I'm thinking of inviting them to mine in the hopes that I can have a nice picture like that too!!!
PERFECT! it would save on food cost since those 2 didn't eat a crumb...
WOW.. Randy is amazing I am so HAPPY I got him booked.. I think he is booked every saturday for the rest of his life...lol

thanks! i didn't buy a kit, i'll post my process below!
Awesome album Caryn!
thank you catherine!
ok, here's my process...it was slightly painful, but worth it in the end.
1. i sorted through thousands of pictures to decide what was album worthy...
2. i picked out an album and matte's from http://tyndellphotographic.com/renLIB8746OSalbum.html
3. when they all came in, i figured out which pics i wanted in which matte's and in what order. (this was the painful part, it took months)
4. i ordered the pictures from mpix after figuring out what sizes i needed of each print.
5. when they came in, i used photo corners (a nightmare) and scrapbook tape to attach them to the matte's, then i slipped them in the book pages and voila-instant wedding album!
i also have another one that i bought on ebay. i'm going to include pictures of our honeymoon in that one, but i'm over wedding pictures for the moment and need to work on lindsay's invitations...

Caryn, honey, you did an amazing job on that album! You definitely have an artistic eye for the layouts -- I LOVE the one of the cake with the smaller pictures coming down the side. WOW!! :love: Great job!
Your flower keepsake is really pretty. What a beautiful grouping. Do your roses show as shades of color different from how they looked on your wedding day? Gorgeous!

I am so happy that you are pleased with how your flowers turned out. How that must make you smile every time you see them! :goodvibes
Training is going really well! :cool1: I RAN for 2 miles straight last Friday without stopping or walking. This was HUGELY momentous for me. :) The Minnie was a lot of fun but we definitely did not push ourselves at all. The half-marathon is going to be a different story entirely. I am hell-bent and determined to run most of it. How is your training going? I worry about you with the heat -- are you going to the gym? How is your knee holding up?

my knees are fine, i think it was just runners knee. my lower back is the issue now. years of bad shoes have left me with bad alignment. i have to really concentrate on not bending over. i am perpetually injured...
the heat is killing me. i'm running only 2 times a week now because i can't take it. my last 5k was may 31 and it was 90 degrees at 7am. not fun. i was a mess at the end and almost passed out (but i finished :thumbsup2 ). i'm doing a lot of yoga right now until marathon training starts in 3 weeks.
if you can believe it, i signed myself up for the houston full marathon, which is 8 days after the disney 1/2...i must be nuts.

Okay, I'll have to agree with you on this -- you are nuts! But I :love: you anyway. What a great spirit you have! :)
Okay, I had serious, serious back issues when I first started walking distances. I am going to send you a PM with some ideas so that I don't pirate: your journal. :hug:

Caryn - I love the flower keepsake. My mom actually dried some of my roses that I carried and made a wreath that is hanging in my bedroom but I love your keepsake. Your album is awesome too. I love the cake pictures.

Caryn~ Your album is beautiful! I can't imagine how long it took to put it together. We got one through Randy (it was included in the package we got) and I thought it took a long time just sorting through and picking the pictures that I wanted included in it. I can't imagine how long it must have taken you to pull that all together :worship:
How long did your bouquet from Keepsake take? I'm anxiously awaiting mine and I have a feeling I still have a long wait ahead :faint:

OMG!!!! I just read your whole PTR and TR and it all sounds so wonderful, magical (except for all the stress you experienced).
I would love to see all your Randy pics but I am being incredibly lame and can't find them anywhere on his site. I saw Lindsay and "Ray-bar"s and they are gorgeous!!!!
