16/30: Candid. You know how sometimes, you act as if you don't know that someone's taking a photo of you so that it would look candid? Well, this photo is not one of those times. This one is an authentic, candid moment taken at Fernbrooks' holding room just before the ceremony ...
Day 15: Imelyn Sanchez’ Make-up Artistry
15/30: Reflections. It's Day 15 of this challenge, it's the end of the work week, and I'm posting this quick because who posts blogs on Friday nights anyway? :P Hello, this photograph is brought to you by my dear sister-in-law, who took care of my whole entourage's make-up ...
Day 14: Unexpected beauty
14/30: Flowers. I'm addicted to details. Having only two months to plan the wedding (and with David still in the other side of the world), I found (and lost) my sanity in a plethora of mood boards and color palettes and chiffon swatches. I designed the wedding invitations and the ...
Day 11: Something new, something blue
11/30: Something blue. Instead of getting the ladies in my entourage corsages, I gave them these custom-made satin floral accessories in shades of blue. They came with matching pairs of earrings too. They're so pretty I regret I didn't order more. The idea was to give them ...
Day 10: A child can ask questions a wise man cannot answer
10/30: Kids. I have always loved being around kids. At one point in my life I found refuge in their innocence, their uncanny ability to give you hope when you need it, and their effortless answers to questions we, adults, fail to figure out on our own. Even now, I know that a ...
Day 9: Our travel-themed wedding
9/30: Details. Here's a quick photo dump of some travel-inspired details of our wedding. Apparently, Josiah's Catering made ours the featured wedding of the month (September), so hover over their website or scroll down this post to read the lovely writeup they did about us. ...
Day 7: Bridesmaids
7/30: Girlfriends. I've always known that the wedding entourage is not just a bunch of beautiful people you choose because you want your wedding photos to have, well, a bunch of beautiful people in it. Sure, David and I were blessed to be surrounded by pretty faces on our wedding ...
Day 6: When it’s clear this time you’ve found the one, you’ll never let him go
6/30: From a low angle. Here's my photograph for today, from a low angle, our first dance. When you know that you know who you love, you can't deny it. Or go back, or give up, or pretend that you don't buy it. When it's clear this time you've found the one, you'll never let ...
Day 5: Precious moments with my Mom
5/30. From a high angle. Here's another one of those mother-daughter moments I truly treasure. I still sometimes feel like a little girl when she's around. (: Photograph taken by my brother, Nate Sanchez. ...
Day 4: Thoughts on love, life and death
4/30. Green. Green was not our wedding motif, but our garden venue happened to have ferns and trees and vines as permanent fixtures all over the place, which means, about three-quarters of our wedding photos can be posted under this category! (: Anyway, this photograph I chose ...
Day 3: Blue dream of sky
3/30: Clouds. This photograph is in sepia, but the sky that day was a pretty shade of purplish blue, as if the heavens clothed itself to match our wedding motif. It drizzled before the ceremony started, and it seemed like the clouds would pour in rain, but God held the water ...
Day 2: You saw me wear white
2/30: Outfit. You only get to wear that long white dress once. "You saw me wear white by pale candlelight, I said forever to what lies ahead." ~I Am, Nichole Nordeman My wedding gown was custom-made by my friend Ivy's Lola, who, for the record, was also the one who made the ...
