CARYN & MARK's Trip Report****6/8 added more pics, dried bouquet and wedding album***

[caryndisneydiva]

Caryn & Mark - Congratulations on the wedding!

I've been reading through your TR - wow! My cousin's considering a Disney wedding but doesn't want a lot of the traditional stuff. I'm going to direct her to your TR.

I loved your dress - sorry to hear it was such a pain, literally!

thanks for reading! we really aren't into the traditional stuff at all, it's just not us. i know that disney isn't used to the sort of wedding that we had, but for us it worked out well! some planners fight their brides on this, but mine didn't she was great! at first, we didn't even want a wedding and to be honest, i think i would have been just as happy on the disney cruise as i was with my actual wedding. we just wanted to be married and have a marriage. i was adamant about that, i didn't want to focus on a wedding (a party essentially), we want a strong marriage that will last. the wedding day is just that, a day (albeit a very long and fun one).

thank you for the dress compliments, advise your cousin to consider what she wears under her dress carefully...i think that's where my problems came from...

ok, i only have one comment...in the mk shots, you don't really get close up's, so you can probably get a bouquet cheaper somewhere else, like ebay, or even another florist, just a thought. once i started researching bouquet prices, i realized that i was kind of overcharged, but i loved my bouquet, so i wouldn't have it any other way.

I don't like fake flowers so I don't want them. I am not sure where else to find a Cheaper bouquet? I need a kinda big one since I am not a skinny Minnie. I want the flowers to stand out. I may get her to take out the Pearl Mickeys and maybe the Stephanopous (however that is spelled...I don't want to look it up...LOL). Since the pictures wont me too close. I just figure I am spending $1300 on these pictures (MK & Epcot)and I don't want to not be happy with them.

i think kristen used peddles...i could be wrong though.

Yup she did!

are you going to have it preserved? i have my floral preservation phone session tomorrow with keepsake tomorrow and i am so excited!

I don't think so....I think my DF is going to kill me if I don't stop adding things to our ever growing budget!!

 

[Chilly]

You were one gorgeous bride even if the dress did nearly kill you - congratulations!

UGH UGH UGH! i think i still have a few weeks to go, judging by how fast he's gotten everyone elses done...there are still a few people who got married before me that haven't gotten theirs yet...

 

[BaBeeCee14]

I can't wait to see your pictures from Randy! I'm thinking Kristen's pictures won't be too long after yours.

 

[Kristen14]

I can't wait to see your pictures from Randy! I'm thinking Kristen's pictures won't be too long after yours.

He told me to send him an email when I got back from my honeymoon... so I did and he emailed me back with "give me 4 weeks and then give Linda a call in the office". I know he does a lot of artistic photo-shopping... thats why we hired him, but IM SO EXCITED TO SEE MY PICTURES!!!! 4 weeks is an eternity!

Wow Caryn, that sure is a tough decision!!! They all look gorgeous! I personally like #6. I love the way you two are looking back and you both look genuinely happy.

 

[figmentfan0724]

my vote is for number 6..simply gorgeous pics!

 

[topsy]

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]

I like 2 & 5

 

[Desnik]

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]

I like number 1

 

[FIREFLY01]

OH WOW ! YOU'RE PICTS ARE BEAUTIFUL!!
BOTH ME AND MY DH SAY #1 !!!!
I CAN'T WAIT FOR MY PICTS NOW BY RANDY!!!
