We finally have photos back from the photographer (who is also a childhood friend of mine). I only posted about 15 of the 145, but you can see them on my Facebook page.
I'm pretty new here and have not had a chance to follow your journey, but I hope it's ok that I snuck a peek at your gorgeous pictures anyway! Everything was beautiful and that brooch bouquet is absolutely amazing! Congrats on all your good fortunes!

Yes, it's OK. And thank you. My mom collected the brooches from family and close friends, and put the bouquet together herself. It's gorgeous. We're going to display it in the living room. It's too lovely to be boxed up...
Thank you so much for sharing. I have to echo @soontobeshrader: you are gorgeous. The photo of you and the older woman made me tear up. I love the classic look of all of the dresses and the brooch.
