Third Anniversary Wedding Recap

September 13, 2011 By Cathy

Holy moly! I have a whole new appreciation for wedding bloggers! It’s tough stuff putting together a wedding recap! So I’m going to cheat a little and let the pictures do the talking. These are all photos taken by friends and family since I don’t recommend our photographer. They know how to sell and took beautiful pictures, but the customer service was lacking. Long story short, we should have gone with our neighbors in St. Louis, Zettl Photography. I totally recommend all of our other vendors.

John and I met at Saint Louis University, so we decided to get married at St. Francis Xavier College Church on SLU’s campus.

Pictures were taken around SLU’s campus, including in front of the Scottish Rite Cathedral across from campus.

Where John proposed!

Getting our plungers at Humphrey’s, the bar near campus.

John wanted a pinata at the reception. I vetoed that, but friends brought one anyways as a wedding present.

We had our reception at the lovely 9th Street Abbey in Soulard. It used to be an old church!

The best cake from The Cakery!

I might be biased, but our wedding is the best I’ve ever attended :) Happy anniversary, John!

More details on planning the wedding tomorrow!
