Our Big Day: The Details

Okay, okay, so I lied.  I said I was rounding up our wedding recaps on Wednesday, but I decided to participate in the last Ultimate Wedding Week Link Up and share the details that made our day so special.  

We were married on March 19th- the same day as my grandparents.

Our ceremony was held in the church I grew up in- McCormick First Baptist Church.

My hair was done by my sister and my cousin/bestie applied my make up.

The Dress: Maggie Sottero Avril in Alabaster 
(sadly it's no longer on her website)
Provided by Elegant Bridals in Augusta, GA.

Shoes- Nina Electra in Ivory Luster Satin

My stepmother made my cathedral length veil.




The flowers in the church, bouquets, and boutonnieres were 
arranged by Flowers by Frankie- a distant family member.


Programs were created and printed by a friend- Billingsley Designs











We lit candles in honor of our loved ones who had gone before us and were watching from Heaven!

























This awesome card box was handmade by my cousin/bestie!

The centerpieces at the reception were created by my talented aunt.

The amazing food was prepared by a family friend.













Wedding cake was made by another family friend.  We froze the top layer to have for our one year anniversary, and despite popular belief, it tasted just as good as the night of our wedding!

All photography from engagement pictures, bridal portraits, and 
full wedding day coverage was by the fabulous Abby Funderburk.

As I've said before, Bradley and I both wanted our day to be intimate and meaningful.  
All of the details and planning for our wedding were provided by family and friends, 
and it meant so much to us to be surrounded by love.

Thank you for sticking with me as I documented to date, the best day of my life!
