    Oh my goodness our day was amazing! It was everything I dreamed of and more. I was not nervous until right before the ceremony--and it was simply because I was going to be saying my vows in front of ninety or so people and professing my immense love for my husband. Starting off the morning with a shot of tequila and some coffee helped to make me excited and ready to go. I spent the morning running around but it was so much fun that I didn't mind. 

    We had legos at the head table, string balls as our centerpieces (along with lots and lots of candles), a dragon on our cake, I wore a cape for photos, and the GM and DH had swords they wore all day. I seriously felt like Snow White. I felt stunning, and so many people made me feel so important that day. If I didn't have my wonderful MOH and friends. I don't know what I would've done with myself. 

    Here some photos of my amazing day including my tears at the ceremony, photos of getting ready, the cake, our first dance, and others. Enjoy!

    @Mrs.Estep: AWWW thank you! It means a lot. At first when we decided on the theme I was a little nervous but when we got into it, I just loved it. In his vows he said to me "One thing I love about you is that the day I said I wanted a dragon on the cake you went and started looking up photos of dragons on cakes to present to the cake lady."

    @KatNYC2011:Thank you lady! I miss talking to you! It was amazing!! :)

    @SleepingWithNuns: I've been spending my time finding recipes to cook out of the Joy of Cooking cookbook and that's been really fun.

    And hopefully I'll have a job before too long (although I think DH is getting used to fancy cooked dinners...)

    Awesome pictures, I love your cake!  I love the snow white picture of you and the sword fight the guys were having.  Congrats!

    My DF is huge into swords too, for a while I told him he could bring them into the wedding too but we aren't doing a medieval theme.. But I am tempted to cut the cake with a sword still though ;)
