where's more? please

[mom2twingirlies]

Yeh, more TR. I can't believe you were up so early, but I guess getting the MK all to yourself for pictures was well worth it. So sorry you didn't get the bouquet you asked for, but the one you got it beautiful. I also loved the picture of you walking up to the castle. Very cool shot.

[mcc0313]

What an early morning but so worth it...the pictures are amazing. I really like the one with you and him on the steps it looks like inside the castle...really beautiful. I am sorry that you had a problem with the flowers but glad they were able to fix it by the ceremony.

I couldn't believe it either! I was shaking I think I was so upset!

Thanks!

Thanks! Aww...that's sweet of you.

Can't wait to see more pics.

Yeah, it was pretty, just not at all what I had ordered etc. More pics coming up!

See, that was the thing, when I started thinking about how early we'd be up, I actually started getting a little nervous. Then my SIL said to me..."It's one day in your life, you can do it!" And she asked me if I thought it would be worth it, and I totally said "YES!"

The pictures are beautiful!
I can't even imagine getting up that early and having someone do hair and make-up on me at that hour!
I can't wait for more!!!

Yeah, I couldn't imagine it either if I hadn't read about so many other Disney brides doing it! When you first hear about it, it sounds insane, but you begin to hear it so much when on the DISbride board, it just becomes matter of fact, you know?

Thanks! I'm just relieved it worked out later.....

Thanks! I'll tell ya more if you're patient...

Yeah, I mean, there was white and light blue in there as well, but it was the Pink that really got to me! LOL

Thanks! The bouquet once it was fixed almost made me cry! (I guess, especially after the morning time fiasco!), it is hard to see in the pics, but I'm telling you, I wish someone had taken a picture of my face when I first saw them!

(Yeah - they dropped the ball on the bouquet. Even though it was beautiful to me, you were obviously very specific. You would think that they would have double checked the order, being famous for attention to detail AND it being your wedding day...)

Thanks! Ooh!! I'm glad you like that one! I do too and I got the same feeling from it when I saw it! I KNOW, right? I'll explain more in a couple of posts how it works out and it might explain a little about how they screwed it up etc...

A couple of people have said that is their fave. At first, I didn't like those (thought they were too Medieval Times) but they started growing on me, and now I like them more (that one especially)

It was TOTALLY worth it! I would recommend it to any future Disney Bride on the fence deciding if they should do it (it is a bit expensive to be honest, but it was one of our "splurges" of the wedding)

So, it was time to leave the MK I actually got really sad. It would have been so cool to have the park to yourself for a few hours to take more pics. It was like a tease, you know? So, with a sigh, I took one last look around, knowing how lucky I truly was. I think we missed out on some shots for sure, but I know it was because we were late, so I can’t complain.
Regina explained that the good thing about having the EPCOT shoot was that we would have plenty of time to take lots of pics since the park didn’t open until later, there would be less workers etc and we would just have more time. (And we did, we didn’t feel rushed or anything it was great!). I’m not sure what time we got there and I know we went well over the time we were supposed to.
You get to choose 2 countries to do your shoot in. For our two countries we had chosen Italy and Morocco. Rosie our floral/photo coordinator told me we might be able to do another country as well and asked me if so, what country we would like. I thought Japan or China perhaps.
So, we arrive at EPCOT. We go to Morocco first. At this time, it’s already starting to get pretty hot out. And it’s only like 7 something in the morning! We start taking some photos in the courtyard

And then…..bump into another Disney Bride and Groom!!! Now, I had forgotten, but this is a very big deal with Disney’s Fairytale Weddings! Because you are supposed to think that you are the only couple getting married at WDW that day! Tee hee.
Now, I personally didn’t mind at all, I was all into seeing the other couple and nodding hello and stuff.
Anyway, I barely had time to smile at the other happy couple, let alone see what they looked like. Anyway, Regina got all flustered because us brides are not supposed to run into each other. She said she thought they’d be done already (I guess photogs know the bridal shoot schedules before hand, especially to avoid this type of occurrence.). The thing was she was concerned that the other bride and groom were also doing Italy and Morocco and some other country, maybe France, I can’t remember now and Regina was concerned that they wouldn’t be done in Italy by the time we got over there, so after Morocco we got to do some of Japan! We finished up in Japan and headed towards Italy….with no sign of the others.
Here are some of our faves from our EPCOT shoot:



















We really love the EPCOT photos! I think we actually prefer them to the MK ones, but we just had to get our pic taken with the castle, you know?
After we finally finished up, we headed back to BW, where Patricia would be returning shortly to do my niece’s (MOH) hair and makup and my mom’s and DF’s mom and also freshen me up!

Next up: More Wedding Day! YAY!!!!!

[Luvsun]

What beautiful pictures! I love them all!
How amazing to be in the MK all by yourself....and Epcot too! (well almost by yourself!)
You were a beautiful bride!

[Hugmonster]

WOW WOW WOW.... You could be an ad for those shots. Took my breath away.

[disneydreamer33]

Love the pics. You made a beautiful bride. I love some of the shots they took. Very original.

Guess what!!?? 26 more days until we are both in the World. 27 until we finally meet. Can't wait.

[heziggy]

just absolutely amazing. I sooo love the window and door pics, the lighting was just so spectacular

[orionchika]

Lori, girl.... These pics....I don't even know what to say!! They are absolutely stunning!!! I do love the lighting and some of the great poses!!! Please hurry with more....

[Cam22]

The Epcot photos are truly beautiful! I the one of you in front of the window, both in color and B & W.

[taylan1]

Wow! Just finished reading your entire TR so far. Incredible! Your pictures in MK and Epcot are wonderful. So sorry about your knee, I know how you feel my ankles swelled up after our first day on our honeymoon there and my DH pushed me around in a wheelchair for two days. I am glad it is now finally healed. I have sprained both my ankles at the same time (done twice actually) and I know how an injury can take forever to heal. Your DH is very handsome and you make a beautiful bride. I can't wait to see the wedding pics. Hurry please.

[clio]

Those pictures at EPCOT are absolutely beautiful.

[mom2twingirlies]

Stunning pictures!

[chezp]

What stunning shots - I especially love the Italy ones.
