hooray!

It's official: I'm a Mrs.!  And unlike another certain newlywed, I feel confident our marriage will make it past the 72 day mark.

We had almost 20 guests who were unable to make it at the last minute because of the freak Nor'easter that hit the East Coast on Friday.  Our entire bridal party {groom included} was an hour late to the rehearsal because of a 4-car pile-up in Friday traffic 2 miles from the church.  The entertainment company didn't give our DJ the timeline so he had to wing it.  Our cocktail hour table and bars had to be moved under the tent and we had to bring in two ginormous propane heats to keep guests warm.  I ended up wearing my Hunters instead of my Louboutins for 99% of the day because it was so darn muddy.  Four days later, I still have no voice from talking and laughing non-stop for 3 days.

I wouldn't change a thing.  It was perfect.  We DID eat at our own wedding {not much, but the honey BBQ meatballs were totally worth it!}.  We danced.  We drank {the signature cocktail? Best. Decision. EVER.} We celebrated into the wee hours of the morning and started all over again a few hours later.  Most importantly, we declared our love in front of our friends and family and committed our lives to each other.  Now the real fun begins.

Here's a sneak peek of our pictures: http://www.cramerphoto.com/2011/charlottesville-wedding-photography/sarah-mike-married/.  I can't wait to see the rest!
