I was surprisingly calm when I woke up - I had an overwhelming sense of happiness. At that point, absolutely nothing matter. I didn't care if the flower girl forgot to throw her petals, or if everyone's dress was wrinkle free, or if not a single person showed up. All that mattered was the fact that at 5:00 pm, I would walk down the aisle to the most wonderful man in the world, and we would leave that church as husband and wife, beginning our lives together.The day was full of emotions, and everything turned out perfectly. We were surrounded by 300 supportive family and friends. And most importantly, we both said "I Do" without a single doubt.
Here are a few pictures that sum up the joy of the day!
After the wedding, we started our life together on a dream honeymoon to one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen, Emerald Bay Resort in Exuma, the Bahamas. Lee planned the entire honeymoon, and he could not have done a better job. That week was truly one of the happiest times of my entire life, and I still get homesick for our honeymoon. I dream of the day that we can go back and live that worry-free life for another week. I plan to do an entire post about our honeymooon one day, but here a few pictures to give you an idea of the paradise we got to enjoy for 8 days!
I had to return to Charleston when we came back from our honeymoon. But fortunately, Lee and I have been able to see each other quite a bit. We have spent a great deal of time working on our home, which is looking better each and every day. We were even able to go on a weekend get away with my parents and some of their friends to Tennessee!
We are so enjoying married life and just couldn't be happier. Now, we are counting down the days until December 3rd when I will graduate from nursing school and officially move into our home!!
