My wedding photos

Hi everyone
I've been lurking on this side of the forum for ages and finally got married on the 6th of August. Anyway I thought I'd share my photos as I got so much inspiration from here. Whoever mentioned Michael Dark was a godsend - I got my flowergirls wands from there, got heaps of stuff from Ebay including my dress (£50 - mum had to alter it as my weight loss plans failed miserably :D), 4 bridesmaid dresses, 5 flower girl dresses (I couldn't bring myself to leave anyone out so had way too many considering I only had 55 guests but they were all so beautiful!). Erm, oh and loads of other ideas I got from here, so thank you all xxxx

My two year old, the tiara lasted about 30 mins, which was 30 mins longer than I thought it would :D

My youngest daughter - with my flowers which I gave to her to bribe her to go down the aisle, I ended up with a bridesmaids flowers and my daughters wand. She's only 18months and I think she was a bit scared!

My son - also ring bearer and fairly sulky - until he got cake, that seemed to cheer him up :D

My baby, much more the centre of attention than me :D

My cake - made by my new mother-in-law. I just said I wanted dark red and white and she chose everything else, it looked amazing and the topper she made using a goose egg, must have taken days.

    Thanks sharpee, I was going to carry her down the aisle (I think she's prettier than any bouquet) but my dad said no :D Oh and I like your way of putting it much better :rotfl:

    Oh lovely pics...you look gorgeous and so happy and your children are adorable. Frankly I'm amazed anyone with 4 young kids has got the energy to think about a wedding - you must be so proud of them and yourself. Congratulations :)
