Does anybody mind me sharing my wedding photos?

[Tartannik]

Fantastic pics, in fact i had to go back and look at them a couple of times!!!
You both really do look very happy and it just goes to show you don't have to spend alot of money to do so (I also hardly spent any money on my wedding outfit but that was nearly 13 years ago)
I really do hope you are both very happy together, it doesn't happen with everyone!!

Congrats! Love the blue--esp the nails. Fig trees are great, wish I could grow one.

Yeah that's called the honeymoon syndrome! Wait till you've been married for 5 or so years maybe more maybe less... true love is shown in the staying together when times get hard. But an intense love at the begining can help when the water gets rough. I had honeymoon syndrome for 6 years before I relized that my husband can make me really mad and its hard to like him sometimes... but I'm still here and he's still here and we're gonna be that way till death do us part. We've been through some hard, very hard times.
I can see you guys are very much in love and look happy! I wish you the very best! And I LOVE your shoes!

Haha you would, they're Choo!

And we've been together 3 years and from day ONE we've been like this. We've been through a lot together, too. I found out after he sold his house he did it because, and I quote, "I wanted to buy you a ring that was worthy of you."

I think it's a little sad when people call it honeymoon syndrome - cause I've been married before and it was -nothing- like this. Even in times of great sadness, we've been good for each other and supportive and loving. But hey, it could still be honeymoon syndrome. I think I'll call it ForeverMoon.

He makes me mad sometimes, but I get over it. We actually fight -less- now than we did a year ago because we've learned a lot more on how to deal with each other and we both really really couldn't care enough to fight. We sit and we talk and it's done. He got mad I was spending too much so I stopped. I got mad he kept leaving wrappers around the house and he stopped. Tit for tat, we're pretty compromising to each other. He's very supportive of my dreams and goals and I'm very supportive of his (I'm even investing my money into his company - we're doing it legit too, with contracts and stuff - because both of us knew that even if we loved each other very very much we're not stupid).

Awwwww thanks!!!!! His suit and my mother's plane ticket were TWO THIRDS the price of the wedding! Hahahaha. So the actual wedding itself - dress, ceremony, yadda.. was sweet eff all money wise.

We even used steak from the cows on the farm. Mother (his mother, I call her Mother too) grew my bouquet (and as a gift she made it into potpurri!!!). His sister helped make the salads. It was a buffet and my walking down the isle was a friend of mine who sang Opera! She did it probono. Cheap as chips and the BEST WEDDING EVER. (except of course yours haha)

We had a few months where I was really really sick (I almost died twice

) and we were fighting a lot and the honeymoon stage was basically over... and one day I just up and decided I was going to ACT like it wasn't over. I was just going to pretend that we weren't fighting, I wasn't dying, we weren't going broke, etc etc etc... I was just going to pretend like it was. And it became that way! Now we're just as good and strong as ever, if not stronger. Fake it 'til you make it works for relationships too!

I was so sick and tired of being sick and tired and taking it out on him that one day I just dressed up really fancy, made him a gorgeous dinner, bought him the fight and sat and watched it with him. The next day, in his usual man fashion, he brought me home some tools to finish my chicken coop and finished it for me. The next day I brought him food at work and had lunch with him... etc etc.... until we finally just clicked like we did before I got sick. I was still sick for awhile, but we had US again - and it hasn't stopped since.

So I guess my point is - greet your husband home wearing nothing but an apron holding a plate of steak and see how you go!!!

Congratulations! You look beautiful!

 

[Kassaundra]

Your pics are beautiful, my favorite is the dance where he is dipping you. Great for you both having the wedding of your dreams w/o debt.

Congrats! I'm not sure if walking under a black cat on your wedding day is very lucky though.
