I am so excited to share pictures with all you guys, since you've been here through so much of the process. We had an amazing day, and I'll give you as many details as I can remember, and I'll take it slow, since I am posting as I sort through pictures.
Our Vendors:
- Our photographers Danielle and Suthi from
Skye Blu photography were phenomenal. They were so great to work with, and their work is amazing.
- Our flowers were done by
Bobbe Vagell floral designs. Bobbe and his partner Todd run the the business together, and they are amazing as well. We gave him a general idea that we wanted whimsical and fun and bright, and he ran with it. His work totally set the tone for our party, and I can't imagine even trying to come close to that on our own.
- Entertainment was provided by
Fifth Ave. Music. The band was great. They kept the party going and were just so amazing and friendly.
So anyway, those are some vendors you can look into if you are having a
Disneyland wedding. Disneyland weddings are great because at least for now you can bring in outside vendors to do everything, and you save a whole lot instead of letting Disney do everything. The thing is Disneyland doesn't really have all of these services in-house like Disney World does, so all they do is hire vendors, and then hike up the price for you. We got so much more bang for our buck by using our own vendors.
The Story
Well our day started in the Grand Californian hotel. We were supposed to be at the Disneyland hotel, but they lost our reservation for the first night of our stay, doh! Fortunately the Grand Californian is very close by, and they made it up to us, more on that later.
Our ceremony wasn't until 11 so we had time to have breakfast burritos from White Water Snacks, which totally rocked. I don't know how women can go their entire wedding day without eating anything, I was starving all day long, and took every chance I could get to put food in my mouth.
Sometime around 9:30 we walked over to the Disneyland hotel, to the Wonder Tower where our dressing room was.
I was wearing my fancy tuxedo shirt.
And my pink hippo shoes. If it were up to me, I was ready to get married right there.
but since it was a special occasion I guess I could put on a real tuxedo.
This is us checking out the boutonnieres.
Much cooler up close.
One of the cooler things about being two guys getting married is spending the morning together and getting dressed together.
Love this picture for some reason.
We even wore shoes!
Once we were dressed we took a little walk to see how the women were doing. They were getting dressed in the
tower.
I have a wonderful sister, and a beautiful niece.
This is what my niece got to carry with her that day, she was in love with it. We're raising a new Disney addict to carry on the line.
This is my best friend. She killed something with her car the day before the wedding and then asked the hairstylist to put it on her head.
It looks pretty good on there right?
Our friends weren't content to sit out with all the other guests, They had to come in and be all up in our business.
Time to put on the boutonnieres. Does anyone know how to put these darn things on? I haven't worn once since prom.
Our photographer is a pro at all things wedding related.
I'm having a Tim Gunn moment with the creations the florist made for the women. No bride, no bouquets!
Everyone looks good with a little make-up.
I need all the help I can get!
We were on our way here.
I told the florist I didn't really want to spend too much money on the ceremony site since it was already a beautiful garden with roses in bloom. This is what he came up with. I loved the whole thing.
I think we're ready to have a wedding people!
to the last 2 pages - its like being addicted to a soap opera - they build you up for that Wedding day and BAM gotta wait to Monday- I NEED WEDDING PHOTOS.
Totally awesome idea
