I've been missing my wedding (lol) so I thought I'd post a recap here to revisit it.
It was a beautiful weekend. I can't even describe the warmth and love we were surrounded with. It was overwhelming.
We got married in the public observation deck on the Santa Monica Pier. The reception was on the top floor of Mariasol, a Mexican restaurant. The two are connected in an L shape so after the ceremony, the chairs were removed and the observation deck became our dance floor.
The pictures are gorgeous, I love how vibrant all the colors are. Love the dress--I too am a sucker for polka dots. Thanks for sharing 
Congrats! I love your photos. Your dress is so unique and beautiful! Love the cupcakes too. :)
A few more.
Wanted to send a shout out to our wonderful photographers, Patrick Chai and Christiane Ingenthron, who saved the day at the very last minute. My original photographer cancelled on me less than two weeks from the wedding!
What an awesome wedding! Your dress is so cute... where is it from? You looked beautiful & you just oozed happiness. You were a perfect bride :)
Thanks, all!
@RecessionistaBride - thanks!! I swear, it felt like I was on E or something. I could NOT STOP SMILING.
Dress is a Michelle Roth "Maya."
your wedding rocks! what a memorable day for all of your guests and anyone near the pier :-) Gorgeous photos, and i'm totally jealous of your dress!
your photos are SOOO fun and you look amazing! congrats!!
Thanks, all! It really was such a fun day. The ceremony and reception were at the very end of the pier so we had quite a long walk.
We felt like rock stars. Everyone was shouting out congratulations, taking our picture, etc.
After the ceremony, we went over to ride the ferris wheel. And my new husband even won me a stuffed pug at one of the carnival games.
Everytime I see the pier now I feel that happiness all over again.
I love your wedding pictures! Your makeup is gorgeous too, your eyes really sparkled in every picture that I saw of you! How stunning!
@iceprincess717 - thank you so much!! That means a lot to me as my best friend's sister did my hair and makeup. I think she did such a great job. I will pass on the compliment.
I LOVE your dress!!! And your shoes! Looks like you had a blast. Your photog did a fabulous job!
I just saw this post-wedding shoot on rocknrollbride.com. So envious of some of these shots! I wish we had had more time to take pics during cocktail hour but that ferris wheel ride ate up most of our time.
OMG polka dot dress! It looks like such a fun and joyful day. Congratulations!!
I love everything - beautiful pictures, I heart your dress madly!, love the flowers too!
I am in love with your wedding!!! Your dress was soo adorable! And your shoes are fabulous!!!!
Those are awesome!! Looks like so much fun - and I LOVE your dress!
OH HOW FUN! I loved the pier when I visited last year.
Your dress is adorable and I love that black and white picture of you with the champagne glass.
What a unique venue! Looks like it was really fun.
I hope you don't mind me bumping up this recap. I'm playing catch-up.
Santa Monica is one of my favorite places.
Great pics and congrats!!!
Your wedding was amazing! It looks like it was so much fun. Wish I was there! :)
LOVE THIS!!! =) Congrats on the upcoming 1st Anniversary!!!
