Hey ladies! (image heavy)
I got the first round of pictures back (all the b&w film + over 600 digital shots from an amateur photographer friend)! I wish I had a scanner because the b&w pictures are stunning!
Getting ready:
Walking up the "aisle" (aka an enormous hill) with my dad:
With my MOH & BM:
DH and I (this was between posed shots for the other photog):
The tables (with the bamboo plates, potato flatware, & cedar tree favors):
The family  :
The cake (buttercream frosting w/ a fondant ribbon) & the peacock topper my mom made, that couldn't stand up on the cake  :
The event coordinator and my little brother (everyone thought I was crazy because I think they look related):

Anyway, I had a blast! The forecast was pretty dreary until last Friday when they said it would be 75 and sunny. I got sunburned on the way up on Friday. 
We started 25 minutes late, but oh well. I got nervous for a bit when my BM were doing my hair. I really don't like being late for anything and it was really stressing me out that we would be starting late. At the last minute I decided to wear ballet flats up to the ceremony, because I just didn't trust myself in wedges.  There were two bald eagles circling above us through the entire ceremony. The food turned out really well, there was one minor glitch getting the music started, but nothing major. Our first song was on an iPod, but after that the band took over. They were great! Everyone danced, which was what I really wanted.

You looked beautiful! Everything else looked great - I especially like the blusher veil and the little tree favours (too cute!)
Congratulations! Welcome to the MRS. club

Beautiful!!! I especially love the first picture - a very captivating bridal portrait. 
Is your dress a Mori Lee? Everything looked great - by all means, show us more!

It's from David's of all places. The b&w pictures put these to shame. OK, here come some more.

Bouquets in the making (yes, they are on top of dumpsters ):
The feathers:
Head table (which I don't think any of us ever really sat down at):
Getting my hair done:
The almost pin-up pose (goofing around because I was BORED!!):
Back view/detail of dress, and back of sash w/ my feathers!
with my nieces/ junior bridesmaids:
Bridal party from the boy's side:
Bridal party from the girl's side:
Me trying to jam DH's ring on his finger. He's got tiny fingers and HUGE knuckles. He actually had to get the ring on himself, lol:
Hamming it up for the camera during our first dance (DH doesn't dance so it was a bit awkward and I was trying to get him to laugh):

Thank you!! We got some really good pin-up-esque shots and one Avril Lavigne looking one all in b&w. I can't wait until we get the rest of the pictures back! He said it shouldn't be too long...

Gorgeous pictures! I love your peacock-feathers and the BMs dresses and bouquets, and your dress was heavenly. I'm finding I love the color combinations of brown and tiffany blue or brown and pink a lot lately. You have great style!
