August 31st is my husband and my wedding anniversary. I decided to reminisce and look back through all the pictures I had available to me (we are currently on vacation celebrating). We have a huge CD of pictures I need to put together and make prints!
Both Cameron and I have been in movies and love every aspect of filmmaking. We were both actually in Up in the Air and so we knew we had to do an Old Hollywood theme wedding. We had a fancy theater as the venue in downtown Kansas City. It was a red carpet event and the reception also held in the theater ballroom. When guests arrived they had to walk red carpet and pictures taken with a backdrop with our names in a Hollywood star and our wedding date. Our colors were red, black and white with some touches of silver and gold. Feathers, pearls and diamonds whenever I could sneak them in somewhere. I had pin curls, diamond studded shoes, brooches and the best looking leading ladies by my side. We have so many kids in our family so we had them come down as “paparazzi’ with cameras before I came so they could take pictures of the guests. It was so cute. Oscar shaped cookies as a thank you and gosh they were the best! What I wouldn’t do to have one of those cookies right now. Delicious.
Besides all the details when I think back to that day, I think about how I was never really nervous. I was calm and at peace. It rained that morning but stopped and was beautiful. We had the best day! My husband even surprised everyone, including me by serenading me with the Buddy Holly song “Everyday”. HAHA. It was the highlight of many people’s day, as they STILL remember it. I really need to upload it because well , his voice may have cracked a time or two, but it was pretty sweet. He even had the glasses and all! ha. It was a the perfect day for us and I am so glad that here we are, stronger than ever.
Please enjoy some pictures of our special day!
