Pre Ceremony "First Look" and Fantastic Flowers!

We left off with me at the entrance to the bridge. Randy had me hold off so that he could position himself just right to get Adam's reaction. I was so nervous that I swear I could feel my knees knocking together under my dress. After what felt like an eternity Randy said he was ready and I began walking towards Adam. If I could have run out to him without tripping over my veil or my train I would have! I could hear Adam giggling waiting for me to get closer to him. When I was close enough to touch him I reached out and tapped Adam's shoulder. He started turning around ever so slowly and this was his reaction.

After the AWESOME reaction I got from him I couldn't stop laughing. I threw my arms around him and gave him the biggest hug I possibly could.

After our much needed hug, we stepped back to check each other out. He cleans up so nice! :)

Disney floral had arrived just in time with our flowers. I could hardly contain myself! I was so excited to see my bouquet. My sisters and Adam's brothers were given their bouquets and boutonnieres and then it was time for the other big reveal of the day... my bridal bouquet! As I said before in my vendor review, Rosie at Disney floral promised me that my bouquet would look just like the picture I sent her and that I would love it! These next pictures can sum up my reaction better than I could ever write.

After my thorough inspection, my bouquet got the "thumbs up" Katie seal of approval!

I love that I'm laughing and he's smirking :)

After pictures Randy checked his watch and informed us that it was time to go. I gathered up my veil and train in one arm and led the way to the elevators. When the elevator doors opened we gave one WDW vacationing family quite a shock. I mean how many times do you get off of an elevator expecting to see a bride and her entire entourage? The little girl just stared at me and her mom said "Look! she's a bride!" I said hello to her but she just kept staring at me with her mouth hung open. The parents just laughed and said "Congratulations".

On our way to the limo Randy wanted to get one silhouette picture in front of the look out window. All the cast members were congratulating us and I even saw a family taking pictures of us. I couldn't believe how much attention we were getting! It was amazing! I felt so special and, again really cliche, like a princess!

One last kiss before heading to the Ceremony!


There are so many other pictures I could be posting. This is taking me so long because I'm trying to figure out which ones to include! I wish this post had more content other than pictures, but in all honesty it was all posing and picture taking. There wasn't much happening during this part of the day. The next post will be fun though, I promise! :)

  4. Thank you! My flowers were simply amazing! I want to see if I can find someone to replicate them out of silk flowers as a momento... I cried when I had to leave them behind (Such a sap!)
