Wedding Weekend: My 1-year Anniversary (continued)


Here are a few (OK, more than a few) photos from our Destination Wedding. I'll post "Trash the Dress" and Brunch pics over the weekend... We ended up flying our photographers down with us, which was a fantastic way to capture so many of the memories. Most of the pictures are of Mr. Southern and I- just in case our guests prefer their privacy. ;-)

Promise, more gardening, architecture discussion, etc. to come next week!


Rehearsal on the beach... note to self: Custom-made bride t-shirt may sound cute, but when getting photographed, a little dress would have been a MUCH better idea.

Rehearsal dinner- cocktail hour. This was up on a hill on St. Thomas with gorgeous sweeping views of the city...



A little artsy action...
Details...pre-wedding




Putting on my grandmother's sapphire earrings














Gocco'd table "numbers" with qualities of love.

Escort cards


One of my faves- Mr. Southern helping with my shoes after our second round of photos on the beach.



My beautiful sister reading her toast, including bible verses our grandparents taught us.

And my tearful response.


Thank you for indulging me with my fabulous memories!

  6. What a beautiful wedding! You two look so happy and gorgeous in all the photos. I love that you let the bridesmaids wear whatever they wanted (and your sister's dress is GORGEOUS...exactly what I'd pick if I were allowed to choose my MOH dress).
