You can tell a lot about my relationship with my husband from these photos. Especially that last photo. That's pretty much our relationship, right there. Me yapping about something random, and Andrew's like, 'What are you TALKING about??' And I'm like, No you seriously need to listen to whatever this random thing that I'm saying. Was that even English just now? I just made every writing professor I ever had tremendously sad. Andrew and I got married 8 years ago, and it was a Christmasy wedding. When we look at wedding pix now, we start yelling, 'WE LOOKED SO YOUNG!!!'.
You two are adorable! What a stunning bride you were, Melissa! Love the photos!
ReplyDeletethanks patricia!! andrew wasn't thrilled about me throwing these pix up here and then he was like, ah do what you want....he's learned resistance is futile :)
DeleteAnother things we have in common-- My husband and I have been married 8 years too (OMG we are twins! lol) Our wedding was a couple of days before halloween.
ReplyDeleteYou both look beautiful and love the venue! And that cake--- wow, that is amazing! I love looking at old wedding photos. I cant believe how young we all looked. And I think the day after the wedding, my husband started growing his beard ;)
Happy anniversary!~!!
we have a parallel lives thing going on Heather! except for you being an amazing artist and me being...not an amazing artist, hee hee :)
DeleteI loved my cake! I wanted non-white cake and for it to be ALL CHOCOLATE! That was good cake, I wish I had more of it :)
LOL! Love it! And of course you would have had a Christmas wedding, Melissa! :)
ReplyDeleteThe only thing with the Christmas wedding is that we never had a honeymoon, because it was Christmas not long after the wedding and we didn't feel like it was a good time to go away! maybe when julia goes off to college, we'll go have a honeymoon :)
DeleteMelissa, you were such a beautiful bride! And I love that last photo! :) We've been married 8 years as well and, yeah, we looked like babies back then. LOL
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your anniversary!
oh thank you Michelle!!!! Sometime I'll show a pic of Andrew and I about 2 months after we began dating, we look like we're TWELVE, i swear to goodness.
DeleteThese picture are fantastic! I love looking and wedding photos and love all the personality that shows through in yours. And your train was SO elegant, Christmas decorations are the best wedding decorations. We got married on Dec 27... and it's going to be a decade for us! (and speaking of babies we certainly were, both of us were barely 22) maybe I'll throw a few pix up for the event, I'm sure trapper would LOVE that... ha ha ha.
ReplyDeleteOh wow Robyn!! we were both Christmas brides, so cool! I loved my veil, way more than the dress -- when I wore it I felt very bridally. I adored that thing. I wonder if Julia will want it? (prolly not, knowing her)
Deleteour poor husbands. tee hee!
DeleteOh, wonderful! Happy, happy anniversary! My 10th anniversary was this past September, but we're all getting ready to be in my little sister's wedding on Saturday! Two days! EEK!
ReplyDeleteAnd omigosh! Was your cake covered in chocolate icing, too? I refused to have a white wedding cake. It was chocolate, with chocolate buttercream, with chocolate-covered strawberries cascading down the side.
YEAH BABY! choc cake, choc icing. I think it had a choc-orange filling in the middle. It was AWESOME.
DeleteMmmmm, chocolate and orange is one of my all-time favorite combinations!
DeleteA Christmas wedding, how very romantic. You were such a beautiful bride. Happy Anniversary!
ReplyDeleteThanks SO much! I'm thrilled you stopped by! I've already seen several wonderful things over on your blog :)
DeleteHappy Anniversary!! What a beautiful wedding! And you were a beautiful bride!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary :D What awesome photos you have of your wedding. You both look really beautiful!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures! Happy anniversary!
ReplyDeleteMy photographer didn't get the memo about the mandatory makeup application pics. Instead I have a bunch of me looking in the mirror randomly poking at my hair in a completely staged way.
Mmmmm...chocolate and orange...I knew I liked you! :)
so so so so pretty! happy anniversary. xoxox
