the big day. finally.

to be honest, i'd given up completely on blogging when i got married. i was now living this very busy, yet very exciting life with my new husband. in between getting the house all set up, traveling, and just getting the hang of things, blogging was the last thing on my mind. but i know that these last eight months of my life have been simply amazing and i don't want to forget even a moment of it all. so here i am, back at it again. let's start with the beginning. the wedding. :)

our big day was in dallas, texas on the 25th of may, 2013. weddings are super stressful as it is, so the fact that we had ours in a completely different city/state than where we lived just doubled everything. but as always, things somehow seemed to fall into place and it all works out in the end. :)

 

 ^^^this henna took a good 6-8 hours to apply on both sides of my hands and on my feet. but totally worth every restless moment i sat there. :)

 

 

i can't say that this day was flawless because some things did go wrong. but looking back, i realize that it wasn't about the decor or center pieces or rushing to get to my own wedding on time. it was about knowing that this was the first day of the rest of our lives. that the guy sitting next to me is the best person in the whole world, my husband, and my very best friend. that to me is perfect. :)

 

a special thanks to everyone who came to share this huge moment with us. to my family who i will always miss so dearly. to his family who welcomed me with open arms. and to our friends who made the extra effort to be there. thank you and we love you :)
