I'll do the same to honor my bride on Valentine's Day.

This is our wedding photographer's blog. These were taken July 2010, when we were married. Sorry cannot post pictures, just take a gander at her work.

Also, they are pre-haircut and beard trim for me...

My thoughts exactly. Must have been an expensive wedding.

Yeah, I have 5 and most people I know think I am nuts. 8 is insane.

Must be something in the water here because I had 5 too.

I would have only had 4 but I had to include the brother-in-law.

Thanks.

Yeah...I didn't want 8, but I couldn't cut anyone out. I tried and tried to figure out how I was going to do it, but all of them are GREAT friends (or a brother/brother-in-law and no way was I going to cut out family). We had a ball that day. We didn't want to leave. Nor did any of our attendees. We could've went all night long, but we did need to take care of business ;) and head to Jamaica...

I was told I could have 5 max, then after I had asked 4, I was told that the 5th would be my BIL. SOB, so I have 2 Ushers as well.

I want 5 bridesmaids but I've been told by wildcats' two best friends (both girls) that they are to be included. I actually love them both but 7 freaking bridesmaids!? I am strongly considering making them stand on his side to even it out since I highly doubt he can come up with 7 guys. Although, I do have 5 brothers he can add in if need be.

When my cousin got married, she had all her brothers on her side and her husband had all his sisters on his side.

If I had to guess I'd say most of our brothers and sisters will not be in it. My sister will be my maid of honor and I think his only brother will be on his side but my 5 brothers will likely be ushers if anything at all. I have a super close family but there are just toooo many of us. I wasn't in my oldest brother's wedding and was not the least bit bothered by it.

Do you have it on your computer or is it on a site like facebook?


Lol don't know why I said facebook although it will still work with facebook. It will have to be on a website such as photobucket or other photo hosting sites. Right click on the pic and select "copy image location" then come back and use the insert photo button at the top of the reply box.

See, I have my only brother and her only brother -- that's the extent of our siblings. I cannot and will not (and did not) exclude either of them. They actually both spoke at the reception.

All the other groomsmen were either college or high school buddies. I am extremely close with all of them. Then the 4 ushers are also really good friends.

It was a big wedding, we had over 300 guests.

Fuck that. I'm not sure I like 300 people enough to spend $60 each on them. Our guest list is 110

It would be more accurate to say that 300 people don't like you.

Boom. Roasted. Eh, Justin!?

It wasn't all my choice. It was the in-laws' decision to get a lot more.

There would've been even more attend if some of my family had been there -- I had many of my aunts, uncles, and cousins not show.
