Thursday night: Rehearsal Dinner for one of my best friends (I even ditched Open House for it...and you teachers out there know that getting ready for that alone is a task in itself!)
Friday: Played hookie and celebrated T's 1st Birthday!
Saturday: Amanda's Wedding-GORGEOUS!!!
Sunday: Happy Easter and T's semi-Birthday Party
I have been a busy busy woman.
To busy, too stressed, and now trying to just relax.
Being part of the big wedding I keep talking about was exciting, but to have Sammy be part of it too was fantastic.
The girl was an angel. Really, she couldn't have been better.
Luckily, I had my own photographer (AKA the Handyman) who took pics during the rehearsal and the dinner.
These two-P-E-R-F-E-C-T!!!
When they really did walk during the wedding there were SO many awes and oooooo's! Precious!
I'm actually quiet sad because I was so wrapped up in getting her and I ready that I really didn't take pictures.
I can't WAIT to see all the pictures that the photographer took-I need to just be patient though ;)
Miss S was SO excited to get to see in the big stool and get her make up done like the big girls!
The wedding was at the Union Station in LA.
One of the most gorgeous places I have every seen for a wedding.
The ambiance was beautiful and every detail was PERFECT.
The most amazing part was how much heart was put into each part.
For example, the boxes/vases for the flowers were built by Amanda's dad-they were breathtaking!
Skeleton keys for guests to find their seats
Vintage postcards for the table numbers with vintage teal knobs on wood plaques-also made by her father.
Sammy's seat! I gave her a special present for her big day :)
Ahhhh, my FAVORITE picture. So in love. So happy. I love it :)
Now to bore you with some pictures of the two that add to the stress, yet, I wouldn't change a thing!!!
I laugh every time I make a mega post like this and think of my friend Genn who calls herself a Photogaholic.
I am coming out too, Genn.
I'm a Photogaholic.
Yep, my boy eats rocks!
Happy Easter!!!

ReplyDeleteYou take some beautiful photos!! What kind of camera do you use?? I dabble a little and am in the process of buying a new lense for mine.
ReplyDeleteI knew you'd admit you are a photogaholic too. Hi Tawny, I'm Genn. Welcome to the club.

ReplyDeleteWow, you HAVE been busy!! Love the picture where you are holding your little boy, and your little girls hand. Precious! Glad you found some time to relax, as I'm sure it's WELL deserved. ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter!!
What GREAT pictures, Tawny! I loved looking at all of them and the wedding was amazing!
ReplyDeleteThat wedding looks so beautiful! And your children are adorable! Love the pictures. :)
ReplyDeleteI have a Canon Rebel XS that I've had for about a year and I love it. I want to get a new lense and am thinking about the 50 1.8. It's only like $100. I've heard it's good but it doesn't zoom. I follow the Momtog blog and she recommended that one as well. The one I really want is like over a grand so I won't be getting that anytime soon!!
ReplyDeleteI love all the details of Amanda's beautiful day! Miss S is a doll, I can imagine that she looked great and behaved great!
ReplyDeleteWe love T's tie shirt, that's the way to do it!
Glad to see you survive the craziness, take this week off to recover :)
Looking forward to the many more photos, you photogalic!
Thats what I've heard about that lense....is that it doesn't zoom. I'm still trying to get out of the auto mode and figure some other stuff out!! I'm failing at getting the pics where the subject is super clear and everything else is blurry?? Any suggestions??!!! I don't know if a better lense would help with that or not?
ReplyDeleteLooks like a beautiful weekend full of wonderful memories. You're little ones are too... {cute}! Great pictures!
