The response from my blog stalkers on Liz & Carl’s wedding has been amazing. Beyond the beautiful location, Liz & Carl really, truly enjoyed their wedding day. Their incredible family and friends really made the day joyful and lovely. I mean, I had their poor wedding party and family out in 40 degree, windy weather and I didn’t hear a peep of complaining. In fact there were chants of “this is going to look awesome”. Who does that? Their amazing peeps, that’s who.

Liz and Carl’s first dance was beautifully choreographed and executed. I know Liz had dance experience, but Carl really rocked the dance. It was, say it with me, AH-MAZING.
