Acaba de Casarse

Here are my fave pics from our reception!  Again, I will note write under each picture who took the photograph.  None are taken by me, altho all images are photoshopped by yours truly!  :)

If you follow my blog, you know that my husband and I visited Napa Valley over Valentines Day weekend this year. We bought a 12L bottle of red wine from Del Dotto Vineyards to serve to our guests at our wedding reception.  It was a huge hit and it was so nice to have that for everyone to enjoy.  It was our little way of saying thank you for coming to Mexico and celebrating with us.  And no red wine was spilt on my dress!  haha  Anyway, we had all of our guests sign the bottle and Del Dotto had a lovely lable made with our names and wedding date on it.  The huge wine bottle now sits in our dining room and is such a lovely keep sake for us to cherish forever and ever! :)  You can view my posts on Del Dotto Vineyards and all the other Wineries we visited in Napa by clicking here, here, and here.

When in Rome...  I mean MEXICO!  You have to have a donkey at your wedding reception right?!?!?  Aaaaand the little guy was carrying iced down Coronas on his back.  This was definitely one of the only amenities that my husband and I agreed to spending money on.  :)  The donkey was oh so cute!  And everyone had fun taking pictures with him.  Picture by Caribe Photography.

Yes that is a wig not my real hair.  For my bachelorette party, my girlfriends and I "WIGGED OUT" for the evening.  I happened to find a yellow wig that was excactly the color of my wedding.  Sooooo, I brought it for the reception and for pictures.  I love my Lady Gaga Yellow wig!  This is a picture taken by Ben of me and my BRO!
My "Other Bridesmaids."  So they happened to be wearing the same Victoria Secret maxi dress to my wedding.  No biggie, they were both beautiful.  And you cant blame them, it is a PERFECT beach dress.  But thank goodness US Weekly wasnt in Mexico or there might just be a "Who Wore It Best" magazine article out.  Funny story tho... a person that was also staying at the resort where my wedding was held thought that these were the bridesmaids!  How funny!  Good times!
This was another one of Ben's photos.  Thanks Ben!  You always get great shots!

 I always always wanted a bride and groom cake topper.  I was so pleased that I found a blonde with yellow flowers!  How cute are they?  :)

The wedding was everything I could have hoped for! I hope every girl planning a wedding right now gets the same thing! We all deserve at least one day to be perfect. Wedding over and Life beginning! Things couldnt be any better!
XOXO,
