Finally, I can show you some pictures of our wedding! We were sooo lucky! It was the first weekend with warm weather, all the tulips and magnolias in the little park in front of the hotel (were the civil ceremony was held) were fully abloom, and best of all, everybody was in such a cheerful mood! We are still so happy about it all! The ceremony was very nice and very emotional for Jan and me. Afterwards, we walked through the park over to another hotel were the reception was held. We felt like VIPs with so many friends and family around us taking photos! These photos were made by my wonderful friend Kerstin! We got them on CD when we came home from our honeymoon! Thank you so much, Kerstin!

At the reception
The hotel were we had our wedding reception has a little sunny courtyard garden. As the weather was really warm, we could celebrate outside in the sun! And I had been so worried before that I would freeze in my dress! Ha, ha! Late in the afternoon, we had a date with a professional photographer, who also made great photos of us in a nearby park, which was a lot of fun! When that was over, we went back to the hotel for a festive dinner with our closest family. My dad held a funny speech for us about our soon to be started "family venture", telling everybody about my management qualities as a little girl and how I had always known exactly what I wanted and how to get it, too! Hee, hee!

The next day, all of us had breakfast at the hotel and afterwards met in our apartment to relax a little bit. It was a wonderful weekend! And when everybody had left we were dead tired and could hardly believe that everything was already over! Luckily, we still had lots of presents to open, so it wasn´t all over yet! Beautiful things we got to remind us of the wonderful time we had!

We feel so blessed!
