Nicki: Smile for the camera

I love this dog, and the faces she pulls just crack me up. Though I must say this face only appeared because she was very unhappy with Millie. This smile was the end of a growl. But does that make me love her any less? Nope.

Speak Soon,

Wedding: Arriving at the Church

I've always wanted a church ceremony when I was to be married, but not at just any church. The Church we chose was actually where my Nanna and Granddad were married and also where my parents were married, which means it holds a great place in my heart. It has been a dream of mine since I was a little girl. I've never really been one to plan my whole wedding from a young age, but the church was always a definite. 

My Mum has always had a soft spot for Mike. She took him under her wing when his parents were unable to do the same. Now Michael and I are married, instead of seeing him as her 'Son-in-Law', she see him as her Son. 

Though she still enjoys the odd joke... here she's just told Mike, "Sorry Mike, did we forget to tell you? She's not coming." I was waiting outside and heard the laughter, but had no idea what it was about... now I do. 

I was and still am so proud of my Dad. I always knew that he would make a great father of the bride but it's not until your wedding day when you truly appreciate it. I was just so excited. I loved every second of our day. All the way in car I was waiting for the nerves to kick in... but they never did. Instead I was looking forward to seeing Michael, taking in every single moment. I remember the car pulling up to the church, hearing the bells, and saying, "oooh they're for me."

Speak Soon,

Wedding: The Morning

We received our wedding pictures today and to say that I was ecstatic about them would be an understatement. Both Michael and I are so in love with them. The quality is amazing. The emotions captures are incredible. And the eye for detail is unbelievable.  I'm slowing going through the process of editing the sizes for my blog, and as there are now 100s of pictures I'm going to do each section of our day. Plus I get to prolong our wedding day for just that bit longer this way. Cheeky Katie. 

So here's our morning. Our photographers were a husband and wife team who worked fantastically together to create the brilliant pictures. Though they managed to capture a lot unfortunately they could only be in one place at a time, but the 'best' best man in the world stepped up to the mark and took some fantastic pictures of  Mike on the morning of our wedding. 

We are so lucky to have been able to capture our wedding day. From looking through my Mum and Dad's wedding album it really does make me feel so privileged to have the pictures we have. Years ago when my parents were married it was at a time where digital photography did not exist, so you were lucky to have 20 pictures of your day. Where as now we have over 600 pictures of our wedding day all nicely store on our computers memory. Don't worry I wont put them all on this blog. haha. 

See you soon with our next instalment.
