Hey Elsie, It's pretty hard to pick a favorite moment or memory from your wedding
season. And I say 'season' and not wedding 'day' because I was lucky enough to be around and be apart of all the planning and prepping leading up to the big day. It's easy to make silly jokes about how it was so busy and we had so much to do and probably went a little over budget.
Jeremy- if you're reading this, don't worry we did not go over budget. I'm just… uh… dramatizing. Yeah.
All the months leading up to your wedding are an era that I will always treasure and remember. There were days spent agonizing over which Gelato flavors to choose, watching you try on various dresses, practicing my toast speech while I was driving around running errands and watching all your other friends and family pitching in to make the wedding so special. I got the butterflies in my stomach during the rehearsal. I worried that Love Love wouldn't walk down the aisle, or worse would trip me while I walked down with him. I woke up early on the day of and set up cupcakes, got my hair done really big (thanks Holly, it was my favorite hair day ever) and at the reception caught the bouquet! I had a great time, I always do when I'm with you. But more importantly I have to admit that you and Jeremy looked like the happiest couple in the world on your wedding day, I've never seen two people more in love and more excited to start their married lives together. I'm very lucky to have you both in my life, I can't say that enough. I love you.

This is so sweet! I love the relationship between you two sisters. It’s adorable.
This makes me wish I had a sister! Oh, and I loved your shoes Emma!
So sweet! You guys are so lucky to have each other as sisters!
What a beautiful letter from Emma. I loved how unique and beautiful she looked at your wedding and thought Love Love was an adorable touch to the ceremony. Plus her shoes are killer 🙂
Love and Turtledoves,
Jacqueline

I love it when sisters are besties. My sister and I are best friends. What a sweet note.
Awh! Sometimes I wish I had sister! Instead I have a two year old brother. Oh, well. I loved Emma’s hair, her kind words (and the part about going…i mean not going…over budget made me smile), and those amazing shoes she’s sporting! Lovely <3
That is the sweetest ever! I can’t wait for my sister’s big day!
So sweet! Sisters are the best. Also that last photo is perfect for so many reasons!
Emma is so beautiful. You are incredibly lucky to have her as your sister! xoxo
This is so sweet!
Elsie – continuing on the whole wedding theme, I think you should write a blog about how to be a graceful bride. There are so many friendships that I’ve seen fall apart because the bride literally turns into a bridezilla in the weeks up to getting married. I’ve noticed that all your bridesmaids literally adore you – how did you pull that off?
Lovely. That is so sweet. My sister is my best friend too.

Hey guys-this is Emma. Thanks for all your kind words!!! My shoes are from Modcloth, I got my hair professionally dyed so I really couldn’t tell you how to achieve that… and my pug is sort of a boy, so he can’t be any other pug’s girlfriend. But he’s pretty friendly to all, so there’s that. 🙂
I would love if my sister sent me a note like this after I get married. <3 11.11.11
LOVE your shoes Emma! Where are they from?
That picture of Emma at the end of the post is just PERFECT, in every way. xx
You two are such an inspiration in so many ways!
Love this post!
Love you two together!
Your relationship is beautiful
what a sweet sister! ♥
I have to say I love that wallpaper almost as much as those dresses. That little black dress at 1:30 is calling my name!
what color did you use for this blue??? LOVE!
