It's Official

Friday September 8, 2006

I'm happy to report that getting hitched went off without a hitch! I couldn't have planned it better myself ...

I've created a photo story to give those of you who couldn't attend an idea of what you missed.

11 a.m.
I arrive at the Huntley Hotel in Santa Monica, not for some much needed R&R, but to have my hair and make up done. I recruited my hair stylist Kelly for the up do, my friend Cara for the make up, my soon to be sister-in-law for help with pictures, and of course my mom for moral support.

2 p.m.
It's time for Topher and I to meet up at a park over looking the ocean, but we can't help snapping a few in the room before we go.

2:45 p.m.
We are running late, but still have time for a few shots ...

4:30 p.m.
We rush to the country club for formal pictures, only to find the groomsmen aren't ready yet (I would have expected that from the ladies). Everyone is so stress free and happy to be carted out to the golf course for a photo shoot ... can't you tell :)

6 p.m.
It's show time and the shuttle bus with all our guests hasn't arrived. Luckily we only panic for a few minutes before it pulls into the driveway and the ceremony is underway.
