SATURDAY in words :)

So yesterday was Tabitha & Brian's wedding day. They had a "Big Fat Greek Wedding." (Brian's family = Greek) The pictures are in the post "after" this one (i.e. down below). Here's the progression. :) We got ready and left here at 11:30 am. Got to Stockbridge so Seth could get his suit. The picture in front of my car = at his grandma's house before we left for the wedding.

The wedding was held at the Greek Orthodox Church in Atlanta. The picture of the ceiling is made up of tiny awesome tiles about the size of a postage stamp. (The ceiling picture is the one that is Jesus, you can kind of see the curve). It was huge! The other pictures of before were of the cathedral. The bridal party was made up of some people we knew and some we didn't. :) Colors were brown and green with touches of orange, it was really pretty especially for an October wedding.

The ceremony had two parts. The first was the rings part and then the "crowning" ceremony, which you can see with the two crowns in the pictures that are linked by ribbon. Tabitha looked GORGEOUS and Brian looked so handsome. :) Her veil was super cute as well!

The decor is towards the end, because we really only took pictures of it at the reception. The table and chairs were covered in brown satin and green silk ribbons. Centerpieces had two different heights and had birdseed and other "fall" things in them. Our table numbers were little pumpkins! (See the pics) The cake was "Hummingbird." <-- Tabitha's Mom's recipe at her Bakery. It was good. For dinner we had chicken stuffed with spinach, small potatoes, zucchini, carrots, caesar salad and bread. The first dance was super cute. :) I video'd part of it. The Greek dancing was interesting even though Seth and I are not coordinated enough to do it apparently! haha. But, oddly enough, even though we've been together for 2.5 years, we had our FIRST slow dance together at the wedding. hahah. Funny. I guess you could say our first and second and some slower ones. I REALLY need to brush up on my dance skills (i.e. electric slide and stuff like that.)

It was really a lot of fun and I hope the happy couple is happy forever. :) They looked gorgeous and had a beautiful wedding and we wish only good things for them! Love you guys.
