Just Married!!

We got hitched 10-2-10, and I just got home Friday from our amazing honeymoon. I am waiting for all of the photos from the professional photographer, but my friends took some amazing ones. They also came through for us, helping us over the wedding weekend in a million ways.

Our wedding was Dia de Los Muertos and papel picado inspired and very eclectic! We held it at some cabins on the river in the Texas Hill country owned by a fabulous collector who also owns a costume shop.

I have a lot of DIY stuff to share here, too, over the coming days, but my favorite by far was my bouquet. With the help of an old college friend and a group of girlfriends drinking coffee, I made my bouquet the morning of the wedding and LOVED it. It has a sterling silver double heart charm my dad made attached with the aqua ribbon and turquoise peacock flowers!

The lovely ceremony site down by the San Gabriel River. You can see the bouquet and hair accessories I made. I love our smiles in this one. Our good friend officiated a sweet, Buddhist-inspired ceremony we wrote.

You can see the awesome Gypsy-Yiddish style trio Mazel Tov Kocktail Hour behind us.

They played, "All You Need is Love," as we marched up the aisle:

You can also see the boutonnieres I made with paper flowers and feathers!

We were serenaded with a waltz for our first dance, which was spontaneous and dreamy!

We were told that it was a very sweet wedding and was very "us" so I am really happy with the way it turned out.

It also appears everyone had a blast...!
