Wedding Wednesday: The First Look.

July 2, 2014 by Susan Leave a Comment

Happy {Wedding} Wednesday loves!  
Today is going to me more pictures than words, if that’s alright with you.  My calendar says that I should be working remotely from our River House in Carolina today.  However this fella named Arthur has wrecked my plans.  Apparently Arthur thought he was invited to our Fourth of July festivities.  He wasn’t.  But he’s still crashing the party.  And not as a meek little depression.  But as a Category One Hurricane.  
So we must head to the river today.  Instead of drinking and sunbathing, we will be battening down the hatches.  And from the sounds of it, there will be plenty of hatches to batten.  Please stop by and give us a hand.  Or just do an anti-hurricane dance for me.  Gracias.
If you have been following along in my Wedding Wednesday Series - you’re starting to put all the pieces together.  We had a classic and glam but a twist of fun wedding theme.  Today I am going to show you the pictures that were taken from our first look.
As a traditional girl, I swore up and down that I would never, ever have a first look.  
However!
I’m a really good wedding planner {literally - it’s my profession} but there is one thing I missed.  
Daylight Savings.
With a 4:30 Ceremony - If I wanted to have any pictures of Michael and I we needed to do a first look.  And in the end, I am incredibly thankful that we did do it.  It relieved so much stress.  I was sick on my wedding day.  No, that’s not slang for something.  I was seriously sick.  Most of the day is an absolute blur, not just because it was a wedding day, but because my head was beyond congested and vertigo was kicking my bootie.  {Thankfully by the reception, I was running on adrenaline and Gin + Tonic!}
So friends, family, loyal readers - I am about to bring you into one of the most private moments of our lives.  The moment that, since we HAD to do it, I didn’t want anyone other than our photographers and videographers to be present for.  
Here is our first look:

I’m out of here friends!  Gotta protect my fortress from King Arthur!

Think of us here in Coastal Virginia and Coastal Carolina for the next couple of days.  Just because it is only a Cat. One storm doesn’t mean it’s nothing to pay notice!  Let’s just all vote to postpone the Fourth to the Fifth please.  Sound like a plan to you?
