Cold feet?

More like.. clammy hands due to overactive sweat glands!!

With this weekend’s weather promising to be in the high 60s/low 70s, we could not ask for any better of a wedding eve gift from Momma Nature. The last few days have been the busiest of busy, but we are so lucky to have such great support! If you’re reading this entry, chances are you were someone picked on to do a last-minute task (which I am notoriously renowned for), checking directions how to get to the venues, killing time during the gap between ceremony & reception, or all of the above at one point or another. Regardless, just you visiting our site makes you eligible for heaps of thanks for making 5.8.10 the mostest perfect day evvverrrr!

Extra heaps of thanks to family from afar who drove the distance to see us get hitched! San Diego will most certainly not disappoint!

Justin: Whee!! :)

Signing off as Monica Kelly.. see you on the other side as Mrs. Justin Vellido!


Lights, camera, action!

Wowee!

So.. despite both mine and Justin’s reluctancy/hesitation/sheer dislike of being the center of attention, we can’t help but want to show these off! (It’s good practice for the big day anyhoo, right?)

Thanks a million for a fun session, Zelo! :)
