Carly- your pictures are gorgeous! Your sister(?) did a great job on the flowers the colors were so pretty, the room was stunning set up!

Cant wait to hear more about your trip!
Thanks Sandy! It was soo great! I was surprised how everything we had matched the GF decor.. we didn't really think about the color of Whitehall until it was to late!

Carly, your pictures are gorgeous!!! Everything looked so perfect.

You truly have a beautiful family!
Thank you!! I can't wait for our newest addition to get here!
YOur pictures are just beautiful! I really like the bench shots after the wedding! So cute!
Thanks..the photographers really liked it too!

Carly I just started looking at your picutres and they are beautiful!!! I love the shots in the MK! Ok I am going to check the rest out at home after work! You are going to have such a hard time choosing.
have fun! There are so many! I think I have a picture abuse problem..i just can't stop!

Beautiful Pictures! I love the hidden (and not-so-hidden) Mickeys! They are wonderful! I also love your table "numbers! Very classy!
Thanks..I thought for a while we had a mouse attack..but it turned out really well..plus its a Disney wedding..gotta have some Mickeys!

Carly - All of your pictures are beautiful! You must be so happy with them :thumbsup2.

I noticed that you had Mickey and Minnie in their purple outfits. Did you by any chance request that? My colors are purple and my planner requested to have M&M in their purple outfits, but she told me it was not guaranteed.
Thanks! I was expecting them to show up on Gold...I didn't even know they had purple outfits!

Ok, so I just spent like an hour looking at your pictures! They were soooo good! :thumbsup2 I had heard very bad things about DPS, but you just made me a believer! I actually went with outside services (Damon Tucci Studios) because I had heard such aweful things, but your pictures are beautiful. I especially loved the ones of you on the bench and the ones where they had you in the pose where your honey is dipping you....so romantic. It will be so hard to choose! Thank you for sharing them!

Anna Marie
Haha... I do that everyday! I was terrified about DPS too! But the photographers were really nice, and did a very good job. The dips were my request..I love the way those turn out!

Thanks girl!! I like the bench shots too! But I am still soo mad over my hair... thank goodness for photoshop!
Amazing photos!! Everything looks awesome and I just love your flowers.

I had no idea the cake even had a light in it until I saw the pictures! The day was such a whirlwind! Sorry I can't answer question!

Thank you! I loved Whitehall! It was soo cool, plus we had a really clear shot of the castle..and people were continuously waving at us from the monorail! So much fun.. We have a shot of the two little girls that were there when they first saw the castle. They are standing on a light pole, pointing and staring! It was soo adorable!
 

Hi - can you tell me where you got the mickey head brooch that were used for both your hair and the sashes on your bridesmaid dresses?

Wow.. I don't think anyone at the wedding even noticed them. It was my something blue. I actually spent a long time looking for these and even made a few failed attempts with a DIY. Eventually I found them from a seller on ebay.. i'll check and see if I can find the name for you!
 
Wow, great photos ! I like the pics on the bench at the wedding pavilion.

Linz xxx :)
 
I was able to make it through all your shots; DPS did a great job!

At your rehearsal dinner was your Cinderella cake one of the arrangements with cupcakes? It kind of looked that way.

Your sister did a great job on the flowers; they were so unique. I'm sure Disney must have been amazed at her handiwork.

I loved the way you incorporated the quotes on the tables. There were some really pretty shots with the fireworks. I love how you can still see the castle in them too. Do you know if the castle was added to your photos from the ceremony? I know I've heard that for videos, etc. the different photographers and videographers add it in. Your shots are some of the best that I have seen so far!

You have some really pretty pictures inside the castle too at your MK shoot. I love the angle of some of your shots on the carousel too.

I can't wait to hear all about your day!

Thank you so much.. I think my feelings are still mixed on the MK shoot.. some of them are really nice though...

And thanks for all the comments.. I loved the quotes on the tables.. and so did everyone at the wedding.
And our photographers also were impressed at how clear the castle was coming out that day! He was constantly showing me the pictures after he took them. We were very lucky to have such a beautiful day. It was so clear.. so I think thats how the pictures came out so clear. It was wonderful...Though I'm sure they could have gone and added a little, I am pretty sure that from the few I saw that thats the view we had!

And yes, that was a very melted cupcake cake from publix. It had already melted some before we picked it up, but by the time we got to the WL, it had turned into that big mess! But it still tasted good!

Thanks again!
 
Wedding Rehearsal

We started the rehearsal after dinner at about 7:00. We ended up being switched around a few times but ended up in a ballroom at the GF. (I think he said there was a wedding in the pavilion that night)
Anyways.. it was pretty difficult to practice the processionl and recessional with no stairs.. no one seemed to understand that the wedding wasn't going to be in a tiny room!
I think in all it left everyone a little more confused than they were before..but everything went well the next day, and thats all that matters!

my mom took about a hundred pics of the rehearsal.. so I'll post a few..

Poor Ken was running around trying to answer a million questions! He eventually told me the next day he almost mentioned the carriage a few different times!
 
And a few more shots..

I call this one my bridezilla shot...rehearsal was such a mess!

and the look of confusion that never left me dads face

After rehearsal all the boys headed over to Disney Quest while me and my sister headed back to our room at the GF to start steaming dresses ( I was super jealous!)
Then my BM drops her dress off for us to do because she was heading over the DHS with her boyfriend..so needless-to-say we got into it! But it actually made the next day go much smoother!
 
Carly,
That stinks that you didn't get to practice at the WP, but look at the bright side...you had the most beautiful day for your wedding. I had the opposite...got to practice at the WP on a beautiful day and my wedding got rained out and we had to move my outdoor reception inside. :sad2: The bridezille shot is awesome...I think we all have a few of those! :crazy:
I would have killed anyone that expected me to steam their dress for them! I hired someone to come and do it all for us because I knew I would end up steaming them all like you if I didn't! More power to you girl...you are a stronger woman than I!

haha.. i guess i just held it in to long. This was also coming from the BM who "forgot" about my bridal shower and was magically gone to Valdosta with her BF.. yeah right!!! We decided to steam our own to save money,(my mom already had a steamer) and originally all of us girls were going to share a room.. but due to the circumstances me and my sis kicked her out..which caused a little to much trouble! But like I said.. it made the wedding day much better, and much less awkward! So I am glad I did it!

And, I wasn't to worried about the rehearsal.. I just wanted to make it to the wedding day!! Which we did! Sorry about your reception! That really stinks! I was way too worried about weather because it had rained for nearly two weeks solid leading up to mine! Luckily, we had beautiful weather!

Thank you so much!!
 
I can't wait to hear the whole story on the BM mishap. I'm sure I will be able to relate! :rotfl: One of my bridesmaids showed up 45 minutes late to our rehearsal! Thank goodness there wasn't anyone that needed the pavillion after us that day!

Anna Marie
 
Sorry to hear that your rehearsal was a little crazy. Ours was a little difficult too, we were in a convention room at the Yacht Club compared to being in the AAR inside Epcot, definitely not the same feel. I'm sure things went fine the next day though. Looking forward to reading more :)
 
you look so pretty with your bridal ears... Cant wait to see more

thank you so much! I was soo happy with everything else, that the chaos of the rehearsal didn't really bother me! Plus I am a believer in a " bad dress rehearsal makes for a great performance"! Seems to work everytime!
