Real Wedding: Bob & Vanessa

First she obssessed about the venue.  Then the dress.  Then the flowers.  But clearly Vanessa’s hard work paid off.  And her August NYC wedding was everything they had wanted.  Here are the details of their city wedding.

Bob & Vanessa, August 16, 2009, The Water’s Edge

What you did on your first date
Went to a Jimmy Buffett concert

How you knew he was the one
He said it best, “I feel like home when I’m with you”

The ceremony
Our best friend married us during sunset at the venue. The ceremony was short and sweet. We did a sand ceremony and asked guests to add to it at the reception.

The reception
Gorgeous chandeliers lit the room, with breathtaking views of Manhattan. We sat under our gorgeous ceremony canopy and danced the night away!
