My Hubby and I got married in San Luis Obispo, CA on May 25, 2002. We were 21 and 22. (And yes I was the older one if anyone is curious! :) Since we paid for most of our wedding ourself, I was on a budget when it came to my dress. I ended up finding my dress at David's Bridal and I believe I only paid around $300 for it. My dress was super simple, with just a tiny bit of embroidery on the part right below the bust. Looking back, I wish I would have spent more time picking out a dress that I really loved, but maybe somewhere down the road when we renew our vows, I'll be able to pick out something I like better. I've only been married for seven years, but it's just amazing how much my taste has changed from then until now!
One thing I would definitely change if could go back to our wedding was to hire a professional to do our photos. The guy we ended up going with only took pictures on the side, and as a result, we ended up with a ton of amateur quality photos. Here are a couple of pictures that I scanned from our wedding day.
This is a picture of me with my brother-in-laws. Not all of them look as excited as I did, but I really loved the way my dress looked in this picture.
Well, that's pretty much it for my dress! I will definitely look forward to checking out everyone else's dresses and I really hope that Kelly continues on with other show us your wedding stuff. I know flowers and cakes would be super fun to see too! Did I mention I love weddings?
P.S. Sorry for the yucky quality of the pics! :)

Ok, this is my honest opinion about the whole wedding deal.
Personally, the wedding dress is gorgeous, the photos look great, the whole thing looks like fun, and you look very pretty and elegant in every single pic.
You've gotta be kidding about the photos and dress! I think the dress is awesome!!! The pics look very nice too. :0)
You look great! Your dress may be 'simple' but your look fantastic in it!
I loved all your wedding pictures..and your dress was gorgeous. Thanks for sharing.
