A little while ago I was conversing with lietya about weddings. She shared some of her wedding photos, and I wanted to post some of mine, but since I was married way back in the dark ages before things like digital cameras and easily accessible web sites, I had to get out my actual photos. I discovered that the photos in the album the photographer gave me don't want to come out of their little pockets easily, so I had to rely on the amateur photos that were in an old album. Then I had to remember to bring them in to the office so I could scan them. Which I finally did.

Our office scanner isn't the best, either, so these aren't the best quality, but you get the general idea.

So, without further ado, I give you some photographs of me as a blushing bride 13 years ago.



This is one of my favorite candid shots. I just like the image of me flocked by my bridesmaids.



That's Anna, she's the one who lives in Florida now. Forgive the quality - it scanned dark, so I tried to lighten it so you could actually see my face.



One of my mother's friends took this. She liked the back of the dress. So did I. You can also see how skinny I was then.

Yay!!! Ohhh, your dress was *gorgeous*! All the tiny buttons, and that lace edging.... breathtaking. I love the lace overskirt in the front, too. (I think you already noticed the resemblance between our dresses in the "net over the neckline and netting sleeves" design, but it's definitely there, and that was a detail I particularly loved on my dress. It looks very fetching on you.) The bridesmaids' dresses were nice as well; simple and pretty.

You were beautiful, too. What a smile. (And the "flock" is adorable. Great picture!

Though I gotta say, I think you look even prettier with the short hair now. :)

I think the sleeves on both our dresses were really similar.

Dang, I was young and skinny then. :)

Thanks for the compliment about my hair!

What a beautiful bride!

I love your entourage!

Aw, thanks. I really liked those bridesmaid dresses. I thought, as brides always do, they really could be worn again.

Ahhh! You look gorgeous, petal.

I really will have to dig out my wedding pics one of these fine days :)

What lovely dresses! And your bridesmaids' dresses are very nice. I would wear something like that again. ;)

The first sentence was supposed to read "what a lovely dress." I suck. *lol*

You looked lovely! But I agree that you look even better with short hair.

You're gorgeous. The dress, the hair, the smile.
As for the bridesmaid dresses.. they seem nice, but I hate the way the top of the neckline goes (cups+sleeves), if it was fluent it would have been like a fairy-tale dress.

Wooooohoooo!!!


Your dress is GORGEOUS! I used to have hair like that, man. I was like, 14. The poofy bangs and all. Awesome.

Your dress is gorgeous! Love the neckline and the buttons down the back.
