Magical Moments

 

It was a beautiful fun filled day.......A day i would never forget....Magical!!!
Highlights was the friends and family we invited,the flowers,the dresses everything really,it rained the week before and on our day the sun shined..What a blessing!
My dress went missing on the Friday before my wedding day...so you can imagine,NERVES overload but God knew better he made sure my dress was found and so we had a dream wedding....all the stresses of the months before,planning arranging invites RSVP everything turned out great!
My biggest highlight was our wedding photos what a beautiful sight! So many poses so many smiles my cheekbones definitely got their exercise that day but all came out beautifully!
