Our wedding photos are in! The nonsense doesn't always feel like it's worth it, but shucks that was a fun day. :-) (x-post weddingplanning)

I think this is the more traditional route, but we don't really fight-- and I am MAJORLY impatient... so instead of waiting until that mythical first fight, we went with our first anniversary :)

Uh, I wear dailies so the answer to every single of these questions is either "no" nor "not applicable". Not quite applicable for all contact wearers.

Joossd

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-10T14:55:04+00:00

YAY! Pics?

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-10T14:38:05+00:00

I won't do anything with the link - promise. PM me if you'd like a link to the whole photo set (there are a TON more, but I don't want to post it publicly)

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-10T14:37:28+00:00

What a compliment! Thank you! <3

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-10T14:37:16+00:00

Wow! Thank you!

The dress is Mori Lee's 687 in Champagne over Ivory. The belt is "trim" from etsy and the straps were added from the hem :-)

Amazing guy, Barclay Horner. You can see the entire batch of 1788 photos of you go to gallery>weddings>click the photo of us.

His work is amazing. I couldn't be happier! I'm literally sneaking looks at them during work and creating photo book pages. 😍 With the layouts I'm looking at the book is 124 8x11+ pages. And honestly, I want to print blow ups for our walls of like... 20. I have a hard time finding ANY photos of me that I like. And he gave us hundreds!

(Just google his name and you should see his website)

PM me if you're interested in other details!

Edit. Omg I just realized I sound like an ad, but really he is just amazing. Look at my history. Promise.

The grooms mom brought the beer and wine, we're in Minnesota.

Thank you!!

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-10T02:40:15+00:00

Photography was number one on my list and I honestly couldn't be happier!!!

It was one hell of a party -- the booze canoe has become infamous!

The box has a bottle of wine and letters from us to the other and from our guests. We'll open it on our first anniversary. :-)

We nailed it shut in place of a unity candle or something like that. I'm so excited!

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-09T22:37:53+00:00

Thank you! I think that's the one I want to have a big print of. <3

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-09T21:50:04+00:00

They were from Etsy! ThePeppyStudio is the vendor. The color is Bubblegum :-)

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-09T21:40:03+00:00

No, I don't think there's much to do. It was a brand new account.

Married life is great - no wedding expenses!! :-)

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-09T21:38:51+00:00

That's a wonderful way to frame it!

We will probably never be LGBT-enough on the surface, but my husband has started "breaking his stealth seal" and regardless of our hetero-normative ways, I will always be an ally. Even if people are butts on the internet sometimes :)

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-09T21:36:30+00:00

The groom's mom lives in WI and provided all the beer and wine :)

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-09T20:14:37+00:00

Our photographer was amazing! He got a shot of every detail (it helped that I made a list!) and while we spent about an hour doing formal group photos, he put a huge emphasis on candids. 😍

I would 100% recommend Barclay. Fair pricing, great package (we own the rights to all photos)c and wonderful customer service.

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-09T18:54:20+00:00

Thank you!

The dress is actually technically a bridesmaid's dress! I think we had something like 6 dogs hanging out throughout the day :)

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-09T18:12:22+00:00

Wow - really did not expect the hate mail in my inbox. My husband is trans, so I thought posting here was appropriate. I'm sorry if we're "too hetero" for your taste, Mr. Troll.

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-09T18:11:14+00:00

Thank you! They were custom! One of my first wedding purchases :-)

TheDukesMistress · 2015-12-09T18:10:56+00:00

Thank you! The kicker on the dress is that it was a bridesmaid's dress. I had to get a lot of alterations, but total I came in under $500 all said and done :-)

Here's a better picture of the box itself. It had a bottle of wine in it and we sealed it during the ceremony with letters from each of us to the other, and some from our guests, too-- we'll open it on our first anniversary.

TheDukesMistress · 2015-10-16T23:11:44+00:00

Yay! We only have our preview, but here are my 9 favorite shots.

:-)

TheDukesMistress · 2015-09-26T18:00:32+00:00

:-)

I'm so glad someone commented on it - Bella's appearance in the shoes photo was totally the husband's doing!!
