I wanted to share with you some photos of our special day. (There are a million stories that go along with them, but I thought I'd let the photos do the talking!) The photographer cross-processed some of the film, which gave it a really groovy supersaturated look—this was before digital was the way to go for occasions. Because a lot of these photos are in frames, I scanned a handful of mediocre copies I had in a box and the colors are a bit extra wonky. The real ones are much pertier, I swear! I was also giggling as I looked them over. The trend of photo documenting your day in an editorial manner wasn't as popular yet (probably because most people still shot on film?). When I look at some of the amazing wedding photo spreads in blogs today they almost seem like a magazine shoot. That being said, these pictures still make me smile. It was a wonderful day for my sweet Greg and I.
To my beloved, handsome hubby Greg, the bestest, funniest, coolest guy I know. I super love you!!! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY sweetie. (We'll get back to Bali by our 15th Anniversary. Hee.)

Draw Pigrim: Why am i not surprise you have a Star Wars skirt???
Jungle Dream Pagoda: YAY! Of course you got married in Palm Springs! Pictures please!
Stacey: Happy belated anniversary to you!
thebubbreport: I am NOT a seamstress in any way shape or form...but I decided I wanted to make a dress out of these Star Wars sheets I found at the thrift store—sort of a Sound of Music homage, and I thought it would just be a cool dress. It's officially the only thing I have ever sewed (zipper in the back and everything!). I'm not Star Wars obsessed or anything, but I really love the original movies!

awwwww! what a beautiful, rockin' wedding! I love it all, especially the shots on the bed.
ReplyDeleteHappy Belated Anniversary xo
