As expected, we haven't yet seen any pro pics, but there have also been surprisingly few pictures taken by guests, at least that we've seen. So I'm forced to rely on only our photobooth pictures and a few other candid guest shots in order to relive our day so far.

Whenever people ask how the wedding went, the only reply I can come up with is "wonderful" or some similar descriptor. Throughout our wedding day I just felt so, so happy and it seemed like everything was so blissfully amazing. I know, of course, that nothing is ever absolutely and completely perfect, but I was made aware of precious few hiccups on the day of. And I'm not lying when I say this, even though I know it probably sounds like an exaggeration - I honestly wasn't bothered by a single thing for longer than about two seconds. I had this incredible Teflon-like mentality where something would come up (realizing it would rain throughout the day, feeling that things were getting a little chaotic during prep, hearing that we were running behind on our reception timeline, etc.) and then just as quickly it slid right off of me. I was able to... let it go. For the record, I'm not typically a person who can easily let things go, so I wish that whatever magical transformation happened that day could stick around forever! I guess all that wedding mojo just made it easy to be consistently relaxed and in the moment, and for that I am extremely grateful.
There's tons more I want to share with all of you that I'm going to save for my recaps, but I will sum up our day by just saying that I thought our wedding was perfectly us and our reception was one hell of a party!
So yeah, we got married and then two days later we left for our epic (for us) two-week honeymoon to Australia. I know y'all got a little sneak peek of our trip thanks to Mrs. Jaguar, when we got to meet up with her and Mrs. Teaspoon during our stay in Sydney. (Yay for the power of the 'bee - when you can travel to the other side of the globe and see some familiar, wedding-loving faces!) I promise to post some honeymoon recaps as soon as I can find time to pare down my 1000+ pictures.

Do you imagine yourself having a Teflon-like mentality on your wedding day? I highly recommend it!
There are lots of options for wedding venues today and it may take you some time and to decide what one will work the best for you.
