Today, I remember my wedding day!

Seven years ago today, I said "I do" to the kindest man in the world, and I am so glad that I did!  It was the autumnal wedding I had always dreamed of, soaking up all the richness of the season to match the beauty of my family, our history, and the bright future I was walking towards.  Today I remember!
Today is the day, and the flowers arrived beautifully from Flagstads
                                    
Grandma Tuttle and my mommer helping me put on Grandma's beautiful satin gown she had worn 60+ years prior!  Along with my veil that was made from the lace of my great grandmothers wedding dress!
 
Dresses from 1939 certainly have a lot of buttons!
My gorgeous bridesmaids and flower girl.

Gorgeous, lifelong friends

Jeremy surprised me with a letter he read titled, "Why I love Anna".

I surprised Jeremy by singing, "At last" while my brother Mark rocked the guitar accompaniment


Grandma Tuttle, whose dress I had the honor to wear

Our delciously scrumptious, lick-the-plate-clean cake from "Craig's Cakes".  I loved the chocolate leaves!

 


A beautiful day to start a beautiful life! 
 
I have learned so much from Jeremy, and he certainly has taken such great care of me, and loved me through every piece of madness we've been through.  I am blessed beyond measure!!!
 
There were so many other glorious moments; the music, the decorations, etc....but I hope you enjoyed a glimpse down my memory lane!
 
Love,
Anna

  1. The cake looked so delicious! The leaves don’t even look like chocolates! I love the orange, white, and yellow color motif! You were so romantic on your last picture! You seem to have worked anything that came your way and I hope it would be always the same. Congratulations!

    2. Especially if you accidentally opened the albums and had no intentions. Seeing those pictures of that wonderful day and suddenly you catch yourself smiling again -- isn't that one of the best feelings ever?
