I want to relive October 18, 2014 for the rest of my life.
I've been replaying my wedding day over & over in my head, and it was by far one of the happiest days of my life. Thanks to my wonderful family, friends and amazing husband. Every little detail was exactly how I imagined.
My colors were tiffany blue, silver and white. I wanted an all white wedding with pops of tiffany blue & silver. I wanted a contemporary modern feel with pops of DIY projects. I couldn't have asked for a better spot to get married.
The only downside was that I was not allowed to decorate the night before. I was given 4 hours before our wedding, which was so chaotic! The venue is 46 mins away from my house and we were running late and ended up having an hour and a half to set up! let's just say I was stressing the entire car ride there. Once we arrived to the venue I had so much help! Did I mention how awesome my bridesmaids are? Wow! I was able to relax in the women's cabin and pump Addy some food while they set everything up! Once I was finished, I came back to everything completely decorated! My party favors were set up, candy bar decorated, flowers everywhere! Ah! Absolutely breathtaking!! My cousin put together all my flowers & party favors and I could not thank her enough. The flowers I had were white hydrangeas, white roses, baby's breath & a little bit of greenery. For the party favors, I had tiffany blue boxes wrapped in white ribbon with a little note attached, instructing the guests to fill up there box with some sweet treats from the candy bar. I decided to use that as our party favor because Tyler & I have the biggest sweet tooth ever! I thought it suited us well. My sister (maid of honor) decorated all the chalkboards and my Dad hand made two wooden signs (can't wait to show you pictures!) totally Pinterest worthy!!

I had 8 bridesmaids and my maid of honor was my beautiful sister, Monique and childhood friend, Alexis. I was so fortunate to have every single one of these ladies in my wedding. They all went above and beyond to make my wedding day so special. Any little detail I wanted, my sister made sure it happened! Love her so much!
One of the best parts of my wedding day was when Tyler & I were surprised with a sparkler exit & limo ride from my parents. It was totally unexpected and the surprise thought meant so much to us! We had planned to drive home, put Addy to bed & call it night! But my parents plan was so much better than ours ;)
Tyler & I got married December 6, 2013 but we celebrated with our friends & family on October 18, 2014 at Park place special events in Shafter, Ca. The beautiful soul behind the lens was Silvia Lomas (lomas photos) I highly recommend! My hair & makeup was done by the beautiful Kathleen from Via Bella. My go to makeup artist! She always seems to make my skin look so flawless.
I've dreamed about this day ever since I could remember, and all my wildest dreams came true. October 18th couldn't have been more perfect, spent with all the amazing people in my life.
Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! Hope you enjoy a couple shots from my wedding taken by Silvia!

Beautiful!!
