We finally got our pictures back from David's Bridal. I'm not overly thrilled, to be honest. I actually cried all night after I first saw them. They just didn't come out like I had hoped they would. The photos seem so stiff and posed. No cute shots of us giggling together, sharing a secret smile, or him with his arms around me. The church shots are particularly bad, because they are mostly of our backs (Monsignor wouldn't let the photographer too close to the altar). To me the pictures don't reflect the absolutely perfect wedding day that we had.

I just wish I had done better research on a photographer, instead of going with DB because it was cheap and easy. It's a mistake I will have to live with for the rest of my life.

Now we have the fun task of trying to pick pictures for our thank you cards. Ugh.

My sweetie falls asleep during Mass, don't know if he'll even make it through our wedding ceremony when that time comes. Pray for me!! I'm going to need it lol
