I’m gonna say it… “I’s Married Now!”

I’m a horrible blogger.

There, I said it. Here I am, a Internet Marketing professional, but i’m too busy, well OK lazy to blog.

So, In an effort to redeem myself, I am going to jump back on the blogging bandwagon. This blog posting in particular is personal – No thoughts on the BP Oil Spill, President Obama or Facebook’s latest “like” release – this is all about me!

So for many of you who reads my infrequent blog, you know that I got married a few weeks ago. One would think that I would blog about my experiences, but I really didn’t want my blog to come off as a self-centered “bridezilla of Atlanta” thing. I love my husband but I hated the wedding planning process. I’m not huge on flowers and I don’t care about designer dresses! All I knew is that I wanted to have what was most important to me: excellent food, great cake, awesome music, good people and an open bar!

The Rain couldn't stop our ceremony!

Luckily I have awesome event planning and marketing friends that took care of the precious details involved in a wedding :-)

I had the time of my life! Although it rained (and the ceremony was outside) to be among family and friends, who came to support me and my husband – it was the best feeling in the world. It was a beautiful ceremony and we were surrounded by love. The reception was great as well. If you look at my Facebook albums you will see nothing but people smiling, dancing, laughing and having a great time. I felt like it went by so fast and between the beautiful honeymoon in Maui to getting my apartment arranged, I’ve hardly had to time to really think and absorb the wedding day! So I want to list my top 10 fave moments/memories of the wedding and post pictures that were taken by friends.

Top 10 Moments:

10. Although it rained, the backdrop of the river and umbrellas made for a beautiful ceremony.
9. My Aunt Shirley (who “supposedly” has bad knees) got up in the middle of the dancefloor and was dancing for most of the night.

8. I was so nervous at the ceremony, I couldn’t remember what the “ring finger” was. The pastor said 3rd finger from the left so I thought it was the middle finger. The ring also got stuck on his hand and I squealed “I can’t get it off!”

7. During the “sand ceremony” instead of gracefully pouring the sand in the vase, Jason hastily dumped it all at once!
6. The Garter Toss – I’ve never seen the guys move so fast! It was like a dramatic scene in a movie when Bruce looked at the garter hit him in the chest! He looked like a deer caught in headlights.
5. The Father/Daughter dance. My dad was so sweet, and he seemed genuinely touched that his daughter no longer had his last name! He even said that he was about to cry :-(

All the guys scatter away from the Garter Toss.

4. Friends and Family – Seeing my old crew all hang out again from Northside high school, old college roommates, co-workers and family get along and dance was so fun and touching!
3.The Bridal Toss – Those girls are vicious! In one of the pictures you can clearly see one girl who is afraid for her life, it was a battle between my cousin Gia and my old roommate Ashlee Glenn prevailed.

2. Music – The DJ, my cousin Bryan did a great job. It was the perfect mix of old and new school R&B, pop, and hip hop. I had so much fun doing the Cha Cha Slide and of course the bus stop.

1. The Kiss – That was one good kiss if I say so myself. The pastor even said “Get it Jason!”

The Kiss!

Everyone was dancing.
