Getting Ready + The First Look...

Zac + I ate breakfast at our favorite local diner the morning of our wedding.  Yes(gasp!), we saw each other before the wedding.  It wasn't planned, but it just seemed so natural + perfect for us.  I'm so happy we got to spend a few relaxing moments just the two of us before all of the wedding excitement.


I was relaxed at first, but then it seemed like everything happened so fast once it got closer.  I remember being pretty frantic towards the end of getting ready, haha.

Zac + I decided to have a private "first look" where we saw each other for the first time before we took wedding photos with our wedding party + family.  I'm so glad we did because a lot of them were my favorite photos of the day.  I remember walking to Zac with my bare feet in the cool grass + hoping he would love the dress I picked.  He looked so handsome (it was the first time I had seen him in a suit).  We looked each other up + down, he twirled me around, pulled me close + kissed me.  So sweet.  I think I melted right then + there.  It was so surreal.
