He stood with his eyes down, heart beating so fast as he exhaled and put his hands in his pockets. It was silent, say for the chilly breeze rustling through the bushes and the sound of her fluffy heels clacking on the stone as she slowly walked toward him. The only other moments he had remembered being this nervous in her presence was when they first met, and the day he asked her to marry him three years ago in front of the trickling fountain at Gainey Ranch. Oh, how the time flies! As her footsteps grew closer, she stopped; coincidentally so did his heart. He turned around to see her cathedral veil flowing behind her long curls, and a smile that matched his, soon replaced with tears. His mouth hung open as his hands shot up to his face, and the emotions of seeing his beautiful bride spilled out onto his cheeks as she came closer. And after 10 years, they held each other tight on this day in her white dress and his black tux, taking in every moment as if it was the very air they were breathing. After all this time, they were sure to remember every second, and this was so worth the wait.
Tiffany & Nick’s wedding was such a wonderful way to kick off my December! Their day was filled with the perfect amount of light and love, and every detail was beautiful! The dreamiest shades of champagne colored their story in a classic elegance that will surely stand the test of time. From Chanel perfume to crystal chandelier earrings, Tiffany’s bridal details had me drooling! But the things I was “totally bugging” over were her Clueless-inspired heels, fluffy toe and all! I have way too many pictures of those blush beauties, but could any girl ever have enough? As if! “You see how picky I am about my shoes and they only go on my feet!”
The evening was surrounded in twinkling lights and mixed metals that flickered in the light of the fireplace, giving the courtyard a romantic glow and warmth on a chilly December evening. And the dancing was non-stop, just the way I like it, especially when the Spice Girls and Selena played! Tiffany is a girl after my own 90’s-loving heart… I’m so incredibly elated for these two, and I know their future will be as dazzling as their big day was. So here’s a crystal, champagne toast to Mr. and Mrs. Tran! Cheers!
