    I absolutely adore how truly unique and fun your wedding was! These photos are GREAT!!! So many congratulations!! You both look so happy on this special day. I Love the idea of passing around the ring box, that’s so sweet. And yours is so fun! The head vase arrangement is amazing! It’s so beautiful and I’ve never seen anything like it. I love it!!!! Smoke grenades is such a fun thing to do. We did a t-rex photo shopped into one of our photos too, so fun! Your invitations are adorable. And those enamel jewelry bouquets are to die for… seriously so amazing! I love how colorful and fun everything is. Looks like you had an amazing day Smiley heart

    Thanks so much, Tara! I really appreciate your comments. I can't believe you had a T-Rex photoshopped into your wedding photos too! Amazing!! It's definitely one of our favorite shots.... We must be cut from the same cloth and I'm sure that your wedding was a blast, too! Congratulations! We really did have an amazing day...

    Dino attackbam Our Very Non-traditional Wedding 20

    So many incredible details at your wedding!! I love the booze flower buckets, that's so fun! And your custom backdrop is so cool. Yes my husband is a big fan of Jurassic Park, haha. I thought it would be so fun to do a dino photo. And you can agree, it was! My mom was like, "how did you get everyone to do that" after she saw the photo and I told her I just told everyone to run like a dinosaur was chasing them, and so we did. Lol! Here's our dino pic. And Congrats again.
