show us your life...wedding reception and honeymoon

i decided to join in on kelly's blog carnival again this week (a few days late...). i had fun looking back through old pictures and reliving the reception through the video!

the reception:
our wedding reception was absolutely beautiful and magical. we had it at the schiele museum in gastonia and had the best time. we have loads of pictures but i thought posting the video of our reception would be best. enjoy!

the honeymoon:
we had an amazing honeymoon. we spent 4 days in new york city and then flew home to switch suitcases and then spent a week in hawaii. so that we would have the opportunity to see the island, we cruised around the islands with norwegian cruise line. we had an unbelievable 3 room suite with a hot tub on our balcony. we visited islands during the day and cruised at night.
