So Caradana got married, got tan, and got happy. (pro pix, page 10.)

My sister (the maid of honor) and I ... 70 degrees in January, but a pretty stiff wind blowing!

Amazing bridesmaids filing in!

Bridal Party

My mother (who is my best friend, and raised the three of us alone ... basically any good qualities I may have are directly due to her) and my siblings in a group shot

And now John, added to the family

Dancing the night away!

When professional pictures come in, I will post them.

Dana,

Love them!! The reception looked beautiful...I loved the hall and how you had it decorated.

Great shots.

Did you and John have a wedding song?

 

[The Mystery Machine]

Very cool Dana!!!

What a gorgeous wedding video! It literally brought tears to my eyes. Many congratulations to you and your husband And the reception looked stunning as well!

I remember you posting a thread a while back asking for wedding song suggestions. What did you end up choosing, if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Caradana]

Tim, we did have a wedding song - it was "The Luckiest" by Ben Folds, and it was sung acapella by the Princeton Tigertones ... if you look closely at the dancing picture, you'll see guys behind us in white dinner jackets ... that's them

 

[Caradana]

They also sang "Wonderful Tonight" by Eric Clapton, and the bridal party all danced to it. They were really cool ... very memorable. A lot of people at the wedding hadn't seen acapella live before, so it made it more special.

We invited 209 people expecting about 170, and had 191 say yes. 190 came - one had the flu. Lesson - do not assume you'll get a lot of nos if you get married in January! No one had conflicts one week after New Years.

Aww, I LOVE that Ben Folds song. What a nice wedding song to have

Professional pics? Whoever took those did an amazing job! The best photos IMO are those taken by friends and family and whoever took these did a wonderful job!
