I SO enjoyed poring over these and reliving the day!
RASPBERRY COKE OOOOMMNOMNOMNOM
I know it makes me unclassy lassy but that is my fave drink ever.

Everyone looks awesome except I have a serious case of arm fat! I freakin' love mim's hair and frock.

Ezra - sorry for late reply to your email. I want to catch up with you in person and chat about everything in it! I am back in Wgtn next week from 17th- 23rd - reckon you can steal me away for one evening without my mum finding out? :P In answer to your other question - unfortunately there's no room in this flat as I took the last one!

Raspberry coke all the way. :D And dude, there is not a smidge of arm fat to be found on you!

Yay, you're here this week! Can I get you on your NZ mobile, or is it best just to ring you at home? Would love to steal you away for an evening...we can gio somewhere where there's RASPBERRY COKE.

Can't wait to see you! *HUGS*

Congrats! And lovely, lovely pics. Glad the night went (mostly) well! Honestly, I think anyone who makes out their wedding went perfectly is either a horrideous liar or massively anally retentive - neither of which are especially desirable qualities, if you ask me. ;)

ICON! <3

The pics are awesome, aren't they? :) Our photographer was worth every penny! And my Maid of Honour pulled some amazing shots (like the ones of us under the parasol) out of the bag as well. :)

Haha, yup. As I read on OBB, "you will never get the perfect wedding, but there are many, many ways to have a great wedding." Me, I still get bummed out from time to time that our sound crapped out, and that only half our guests heard our vows. But I know I'm not the only one who's had a wedding day disappointment (you can find plenty of those stories on OBB!)- and hey, we went home married! So, the day was a success for that reason alone.

You were missed on the day, sweets- but I think I told you that already! ;)

Hey Erin,

I read this through with Joel. There were a lot of pictures where I went, "Oh, I love that one..." In future years I hope you will be very glad of having written up all these details, the better to savour them as your married life develops.

Thank you so much! Yeah, I was so thrilled with all the photos, especially the ones our photographer took of Matt and I. :) The thing we need to decide is which ones to frame and which ones to get printed on canvas! I think most of our presents to our families this year (birthdays, Christmas etc) will be framed wedding photos. :)

Heh, I love that you employed the "ezza cries a lot" tag.

I loved reading this too. The pictures of you two show that you are obviously meant for each other.

(I'm so sorry for inappropriate icon on these posts - I've let my paid acct lapse and I don't know which ones it's still got)

Sorry for the late response!

Haha! I didn't actually cry on the day half as much as I was expecting! Given I've been knowing to cry at dumb mobile phone ads, I was expecting major waterworks. I was very surprised I didn't cry during the vows. But, I certainly shed a few tears during the speeches, especially during Mum's and my Maid of Honour's. :)

Thanks so much for reading these, luv. And no worries about the icon- who is the frowny bloke in your first icon?! Looks like Gabriel Byrne.

It's a character from The Sopranos called Sil. Scott does a great impression of him.
PS I have a huge crush on Gabriel Byrne!

I'm glad you wrote all this down. After 32 years, I hardly remember my wedding! Of course, I remember the important parts, but I don't have nearly the detail you have here. You'll be happy to come back to this and read it in 25 years!

Thank you, my dear! I do hope we'll come back to this in 25 years, too- hopefully we'll still be happily married! Hopefully we'll get to show our kids as well. :) I always loved flicking through my parents' wedding photos as a wee one.

Congratulations to you and Mr Bojo on 32 happy years! That is such an inspiration. :)
