You Make My Dreams Come True: The Slideshow

I was watching the video of our ceremony so that I’d have the text for the next few posts (and heck, because I love watching it) and I realized I was so excited to recap the processional that I totally forgot to post about our slideshow. I’ve said multiple times that I’m a huge picture person, and it was a big deal to me that we had a slideshow as part of our ceremony to look back at how we got to where we are today.

We played it right before my grandparents and our parents were seated and had it start right at 4:30 so that anyone who was a little late could still find a seat and not feel like they were interrupting. I wish I could’ve been somewhere where I could see and hear our guests’ reactions to it, but several people told me afterward that they loved it.

This was another project that we definitely waited until the last minute on, but I have to say David had a HUGE part in making sure it happened. He knew how much it meant to me, so he spent hours scanning in our pictures and then attempted to even put them in the slideshow chronologically. It saved me so much time and it meant the world to me that he put so much effort into it.

Anyway, enough talk. Our slideshow:
