The Hubs and I decided to do a "first look" and take our photos before the ceremony. Unfortunately, our hair and make-up ran WAY overtime and we only had about 30 minutes to take pictures. We had planned for an hour and a half! We did some very emotional "first look" pictures that I adore and some great photos of us together before we got all hot and sweaty! It was 88 degrees with no breeze so I am happy that we squeezed in a few photos before the ceremony and reception! I also had the stomach flu and ended up getting VERY ill during the reception so I was glad to grab the photos when we did! I highly recommend doing pictures before hand because you never know just what will happen! I also still had an amazing moment walking down the aisle and seeing Jonny looking back at me.

We also took formals which took place right after the ceremony and then we took a few more photos after I had changed into my reception dancing dress! I ordered it on Etsy and it saved the day! I was planning on wearing it only for the last dance but I had a fever and was feeling awful and the short little dress was just what I needed to survive!

Bridal Party Attire: The men were in black tuxes from Carl Anthony Tuxedo with ivory shirts, black vests and black paisley ties. The Hubs was in the same tux but with a champagne vest and champagne paisley tie. The girls chose any LBD they wanted! I wanted it to be easy but different. They also picked their own shoes! I had black hair flowers made on Etsy to give them some similarity but I really like how they flowed with different dresses anyways!
