Wedding, October 2008

51 › 
As everyone seemed to enjoy my prom post, I thought I'd share a couple of my favorite photos and memories from my wedding in 2008.

My husband and I got hitched in October of 2008 in a simple ceremony (at the mayor's office, no less, haha) with a few family members and friends in attendance. It was perfect, really. I had had my wedding dress for a few years (hanging in my closet, ignorant of the fact that it would be the chosen dress) and my husband Andrew had purchased his suit while he was in the Navy years before he met me. It just happened that they matched in style and eventual purpose :) Andrew's aunt bought our flowers for us and our cake was my favorite little dessert: a mountain of petit-fours created by a local bakery.

We haven't honeymooned yet; we're planning on taking a nice long trip to Ireland in 2013 for our 5 year anniversary.

Andrew's the other half of my sammich. Meeting him balanced my life and I'd not trade him for anything.

  • lynnie482: Thank you! I love that dress. I bought it when I was in high school and by the time the wedding rolled around, it was starting to become too tight so I'm glad I didn't wait any longer to get married, haha ;) Report Spam Posted by maliciousgnome at 11:08 AM on 02/08/10

  • Cute! I love your flowers. I now wish that my wedding was small and simple. I would change everything - except for the groom! ;) Report Spam Posted by weslee at 11:35 AM on 02/08/10

  • weslee: Thank you! :D Originally, I didn't even care about getting flowers but my sister and mom-in-law were like 'nooo you MUST get flowers!' so I caved, and I was so glad that I did :)naominh: Aww, thank you! :D We had a lovely time.

  • Sounds great! We got married at the courthouse (okay, eloped) in jeans and t-shirts. I much prefer your garb!!!! You guys looked awesome! Report Spam Posted by vntgbabe at 7:41 PM on 02/08/10

  • vntgbabe: Thank you so much! :D It was a lot of fun. I'm glad to hear from someone else who went the non-wedding route ;) Report Spam Posted by maliciousgnome at 7:43 PM on 02/08/10

  • Wow, matched by fashion and love! Who could ask for anything more? You look gorgeous in that color, and your husband is quite fetching! What a beautiful couple (and you stole my dream wedding)! Report Spam Posted by hbomb at 7:44 PM on 02/08/10

  • themeadowlark: I really think that smaller ceremonies are the way to go; my sister had an actual wedding, not a huge one or anything, but still a wedding, and the day ended up being so jam-packed and crazy for her and my brother-in-law that they barely got to eat any of the food or talk to any of the guests. My ceremony was very relaxed; plenty of time for photos and a leisurely dinner afterwards :) Report Spam Posted by maliciousgnome at 9:38 PM on 02/08/10

  • Awww....! You guys look so cute and happy! Adorable! Report Spam Posted by adri_ba_dadri at 9:44 PM on 02/08/10

  • I definitely want a smaller wedding, but my fiance is really keen on a huge affair. Eeeeek! I love your dress choice, it's so not a traditional poofy white dress and I think that's amazing. Report Spam Posted by x0xsharicex0x at 12:15 PM on 02/09/10

  • x0xsharicex0x: I'm really fortunate that my husband and I agreed on a smaller ceremony (especially considering our budget, haha) but sometimes I do wonder what a larger ceremony would have been like; however, I'd never want to change what we did do :) Thank you for your nice comment :D Report Spam Posted by maliciousgnome at 12:39 PM on 02/09/10

  • Sounds like a beautiful day and you look fantastic. Love the dress and flowers! Report Spam Posted by lavabunny at 1:20 PM on 02/09/10

  • lavabunny: Thank you! We really enjoyed ourselves :) Report Spam Posted by maliciousgnome at 1:25 PM on 02/09/10

  • That second photo is great. And I love that the previously purchased outfits HAPPENED to match. :) And this line... "Andrew's the other half of my sammich. Meeting him balanced my life and I'd not trade him for anything." I COMPLETELY understand this thought. :) Report Spam Posted by anna_panda at 3:54 PM on 02/13/10
