PS, Yola, yes I had ringlets!! It wasn't too difficult to do as I have very curly hair anyway


And I don't follow any soaps - so on earth is Sammy?!?!?! (She better be a babe or else!! :laughing: :laughing2
)

What lovely pictures of EVERYONE!! You all look so amazingly happy. Rhea, I have to say you almost rival Diana as beautiful and regal as you look, with the tiara and everything. (Of course, hers was real diamonds and all...)

I'll try to dig out some of the pics Earl's mother took of our wedding day, so I'm not posting the SAME pic here that I've posted twice already. I think I know where they are, so I'll try to do that either this afternoon or this weekend.

Great idea for a thread, Laurie!

I'm not taking credit for the idea - I think someone else suggested it in the Support Group, I just don't remember who.... I'll have to go back and look. But it is fun, isn't it? And now I feel so silly for being worried about the casual thing - looks like I have good company there! ...must say though, I was hoping to see some of those gorgeous dresses. I didn't wear one my first wedding, either. I married an India and had lived in India with him for about a year. His mother had given me a GORGEOUS saari - blue silk with a white/silver border. So while we got married by a justice of the peace in Chicago, that's what I wore the first time around. Oh well.

I bet that sari looked beautiful on you. Got any picture of that Laurie, or are they memories best left in the bottom drawer?

Laurie - the two of you look so happy! (BTW for some reason I did not picture you looking like that at all)

Rhea! What a gorgeous couple Va-va-voom!

Lorie I love those pics! You look so happy.

I will try to post a pic of John and I this weekend!

Well, y'all wanted pictures, here are some pictures! These are all during the cake thing, and these are the only ones of Earl's mom's that were close enough to see anything! We had a winter theme wedding, so that's why there's garland everywhere, and why my bouquet is blue and cream velvet pointsettias. We were up until 1:00 the night before the wedding making those bouquets! LOL

A total candid shot, but you can see my dress better, and what our cake topper was. We had a Pepe le Pew and Penelope cake topper - Penelope trying to back away from Pepe, and their tails form a heart. That was the big hit of the wedding.

Last one! This is when we signed the document. My sister and Earl's best friend are the others in the pic. My sister made the dress a bit more low cut than I had wanted, but it was all good.
(It's also a better look at my dress
) We also had a Pepe and Penelope wedding frame on the table to kinda tie the cake topper to something.

Everyone's pictures are so great! You all look BEAUTIFUL! Since I am divorced...I really don't want to share any pictures from THAT wedding...

Heidi - you and Earl look just lovely together - he's got beautiful hair, I love the blue theme, I had blue irises for my first wedding, mixed with natural coloured dried flowers and grasses.

Carla, you look SO like a girl I worked with called Maria. It's scary that there are people around the world that look so much like each other. She was the belle of every ball too - a really pretty girl. Mike's a dish!

Thanks for the nice comments everyone! All the pictures are so awesome!

Laurie, you and your husband look SO RIGHT for each other.

Rhea, I already said you look radient and now I'm looking forward to seeing a picture of your beautiful wedding dress.

Heidi, you and your husband look right for each other too, and thanks for sharing the beautiful pictures of the reception.

Carla, you and Mike look very comfortable and happy together.

Here is Mike and I. We got married on the coldest recorded day in Feb. in Alaska history! Our photographer got stranded- the shaving cream that the kids used to decorate our truck froze and had to be chipped off! But it was a wonderful time and we will celebrate our 16 wedding anniversary soon.

Movin' on up!
Needless to say, I don't want to post pix of my last wedding and Bill and I aren't married. I DO have a few good ones, from when I married Russ.

He passed away, 14 years ago but, we had three good ones, before that.

We got married in my parents' living room, with just family. This is Russ, my parents and me:

I'm SO GLAD I started this thread! Heidi - GREAT pics! I'm having a hard time trying to figure out why you're mad at the photographer. You guys look so happy - and you look beautiful! And your dress is really gorgeous. (BTW, I love the theme! Thanks for sharing!!!)

Carla - you two DO look so right for each other!

Daniela - are you going to share a pic with us?

Mary Anne - you two make such a sweet couple - you also look so right for each other and so happy together! ...and I'm sorry - you've got a great story to go with it! It sounds like it might have been a pain in the bum, but now that memory is frozen in place forever!!! (
)

I love wedding pics when everyone looks so darn happy!!!

Ghyslaine e-mailed me a pic to post - but shouldn't I wait till she's on-line? She's away for the weekend... I'm not sure what to do.

Ady - looking forward to the pic(s)! ...and while I'm not sure what you imagined I looked like, just remember that was 8 years ago...

And Yola - it's not so much that those memories are left in the bottom drawer as I don't even have pics! I think my parents must. We didn't have a photographer, just family pics - and somehow I never ended up with any. I do have a pic of myself in a Sari - but it isn't a wedding pic, nor is it the same sari. Maybe another day in another thread....

...and Spooky - where's that scanner!?!

Rhea...? Did you remember we want to see that dress??????

Cindy - you were posting while I was writing. You look so beautiful! It's not a "wedding dress" per se, but it is beautiful. And what a pretty cake. It sure LOOKS like it was finger lickin' good! I'm so sorry Russ passed on. I know it was many years ago, but please accept my hugs.

Laurie
