Daniella & Phil's TR( WP/ADH/Italy) Complete with pics/ video added 6/18

Daniella your hair looks great. Looks like a fun morning where everyone is excited. I wish I had used Ana for hair. Cant wait for more!!
 

You are a beautiful bride! You looked like you all had a great time getting ready. I loved that part so much fun. You gifts to everyone were great!
 
Thanks girls for all the sweet comments and for stopping in to read my TR. We did have alot of fun. I can honestly say I was not stressed or worried one bit that day. A little nervouse maybe but not until I had to walk the aisle and that was mostly because I knew people would be looking at me the whole time!
 
Great TR!! I cant to see more pictures of the wedding day. Your rehearsal dinner looked like a lot of fun!
 
I am so glad I read your TR. I am using Ana as well. Your hair looks great! I can't wait to read more!
 
Daniella- I'm so sorry it took me so long to catch up on your TR! First of all, you looked amazing! I loved your hair and your dress! I also loved your cake (the one from your WDW reception ;) ), your 'Ohana ears, and the girls' jackets. I think it's great that so many of your guests hung out w/ you all the days before the wedding! It looks like you had a lot of fun :goodvibes Can't wait for more...
 
Everything looks soooo beautiful!!! You did such an amazing job with all of the "extras" you put into the rehearsal (you and your fiance's matching outfits, the hats, etc) It all looks amazing!! Your wedding day hair is beautiful as well!!!
Congrats! Cant wait to read more!!
 
Those jackets are so cute! I love the picture with you all in it with your backs to the camera. Can't wait to hear more!!
 
Wedding Day- Part 2


So everyone's hair and makeup was complete. When everyone was done we went outside again and took more pictures. Me not thinking about pictures I had not thought of what to wear for getting ready other than a button down shirt and my jacket. So the pictures of me are in shorts and bright green Crocs…not very attractive but I was comfortable. In a few hours I knew I wasn't going to be.

Randy took off to find the guys which were in the front of the building at Phil’s parents room. He got a few snapshots but not many, nothing worth showing.

Everything was going smoothly so far. Randy came back up to our room, by this time I was getting in my dress, it was probably around 12pm. The guys were heading over to the GF at 12:30, the limo was picking them up soon. Randy took some shots and headed over the to GF to catch them arriving.

It was the most georgous day!

The flowers arrived right before the guys left. I had total forgotten about flowers that day. They showed up and it was quite a surprise. They were beautiful! My dad and stepmom had brought them over to our hotel. Their neighbors(best friends) up in Cape May owns a flowershop and and wanted to do the flowers for our wedding in Disney. They had all the flowers shipped down to their house they rented and did all the work there. They were georgeous!

Now, If out friends were not doing the flowers there is no way I would have this much, I couldnt afford it. There were more flowers there than I expected. Plus what they did for the center pieces for the reception. I will show those later.

We head outside down to the fountain waiting for the limo to arrive for us. We took some pictures and headed to the parking lot. The limo arrived for use, everyone piled in. Its no fun task to get into a limo with a bridal gown! We pulled up to the GF and there was Meri our planner and her assistant along with the little old man(if forget his name) the train conductor as he calls himself to greet us.

Across the way was Randy and our videographer, Kyla Feely. We went in and took a load of pictures and then went outside on the beach to do some pictures. The pictures came out great but the sand in my shoes didn’t help the fact my feet were already hurting.

We headed back inside waiting for the ok to head to the pavilion. The ceremony was at 2pm. Meri directed all the girls to go to the limo along with my stepmother and brother.

Me, my mom and dad waiting for the Rolls Royce to arrive. I decided I wanted both of my parents to ride with me over to the pavilion.

I think this is where I really felt like it was real now.
 
I arrived and head to the Brides Vestibule and the girls where there waiting. I had to take my shoes off and empty out the sand. I wanted to leave them off so bad. Not to mention that they were 3 inch heals which I had to wear because my dress was a bit too long. Notice the pictures of me and Phil, I am taller...lol Standing next to Phil I towered him, I felt bad. The music started for the guys to enter into the pavilion. Our ring bearer wouldn't walk down the aisle so his dad carried him. My stomach turned a little. The girls got lined up. THey walked halfway down and the groomsmem met them in the middle, it was really nice and different. I was left alone in the vestibule. This is were I got nervouse and said a quick prayer that I was making the right decision and that I won’t fall…lol. I hear the music start for the girls and then Meri came to get me.

The bells chimed in and I stood behind the door ready to walk down the aisle. I said a little prayer and the doors opened. I was so nervous, ont to get married but of all the people looking at me and taking pictures. I walked down the aisle half way and both of my parents(divorced) met me in the middle to walk me the rest of the way. I felt it was only fair that they both walk me.

As I said before, Phil's dad is a UCC minister who had just retired that dec before the wedding. It made the ceremony special to have him marry us. As he began the ceremony, I am standing up there with my parents and Phil he announces our names and he calls me Daniel. I chuckled. He actually did it 2x's! After he appologized and said he was nervous. We have it on video too. We still joke about it. The ceremony was beautiful, my feet were killing me and we both couldn't wait for it to be over. If you watch the video you see me rocking slightly the whole time because my feet were killing me with all the sand in them!

The Reception:
Atlantic Dance Hall

We finished up our pictures on the beach with everyone:

After we finished all the pictures on the beach and in the Wedding pavilion our wedding we were swept away in the Rolls Royce. Randy headed over as well and was trying be us so he could grab pictures of us getting out of the car on the Boardwalk.



So we were finally alone on our way to the Atlantic Dance Hall on the Boardwalk. We both had the same though. Let the fun begin! We had an interesting ride over to the reception. Phil started some small talk with the drive. They ended up talking about plumbing, the drive did it on the side. Yes, this is our wedding day and we are talking about plumbing. Leave it up to Phil to start this conversation, he is so romantic!

We finally arrived, the rolls pulled right up on the boardwalk in front of the Atlantic Dance. Randy made it there and got some nice shots of us before we headed inside. I quick glanced at the décor and the tables. It was so pretty. The favors and centerpieces were perfect.

We decided we wanted to try to make some of our cocktail hour so we headed up stairs where all the activity was going on. The place looked so beautiful. Just what I had imagined. We caught about 15 minutes of our cocktail hour then all the guest were headed down to their seats. The guests had picked up their place cards in the lobby which were attached to the favors.

The DJ (DK Scooter) cornered us to say hello and to go over a few things we had provided him via email. I also made a cd I had given to Meri our planner to give to the DJ in case he didn’t have the songs. He thought we were awesome for being so organized.
 
We had a few surprises in store for everyone. So everyone went to their seats and the bridal party stayed upstairs getting ready to be announced. We walked into a mix of Pirates of the Caribbean music. We bought pirate Mickey ears for all the guys to wear and Phil had a pirate hat which he wore wrong so he really looked silly. We got our ring bearer a pirate sword with a pirate flag hanging from it. So the DJ started calling the names, when it came us he made the guest grunt like a pirate, it was so funny.

These came out blurry but you get the picture:

So after we entered we went to our seats and our DJ made a few announcements. This was the first time we really got to see everything including the cake. It was incredible! I was so happy the way the cake table came out. I brought the Dream and Believe signs and they did the rest.
