The best thing about getting married is that you get to spend everyday loving your best friend. The best thing about having a big wedding is that you get to have a giant celebration of that love... and you can reminisce about it year after year. Definitely having a baby is the craziest, best day of your life, but I'd say the wedding day still stands as the most fun, Seriously so fun. Fun fun fun!

Our wedding is old news now, but I didn't get to personally share about it since I didn't have a blog then. Luckily, I had the most incredible vendors who asked me some of my thoughts and posted about the day. I get extremely mushy-gushy thinking about all the joy and love that was crammed into October 18, 2013.

So I guess this is a documentation of all of their documentation. BLOG-INCEPTION. ha!

The first prize vendor award always should go to your photographers/videographers, because they are the ones who help you relive all of those mushy memories over and over again. I definitely scored in that realm and love them to pieces! Having vendors who happen to be your friends or who become your friends is better than the BFFs you made at summer camp!

Here are the links to their incredible posts...

The wedding highlight video that Matt made us is never gets old! Never! You should also note that both friends who caught the garter and the bouquet both DID get married next and have already had their weddings! Ah, love is great... and this also proves our wedding was in fact magical.

Our friends are so talented -- you don't even know! If you want to hear how they personally arranged and played The Raiders' March for our recessional -- and also see our parents get so inspired by the triumphant tune that they messed up the order of when to recess. It's pretty hilarious.

Well, I think I've hit the limit for the sentimental memories. Maybe a behind-the-scenes wedding day humor blog is in order... but for now I'm just going to go have a lovey-dovey day.
