[my sweet angel baby flower girl was SOOO excited to put on her beautiful wedding day attire! and i don’t blame her. still so in love with that dress.]

[the most gorgeous evening!]

[cannot believe the last time i wore this dress i was a month away from rocco being born and maddalena was a precious little flower girl… ooh, how time flies!]

[georgia in her pretty, pretty necklace!]

[is this the cutest thing on earth or what?! anna made this sculpture of their little fam!! i love it so much. of course, rocco saw it and said very adamantly, “i want a cake like that.” haha.]

[and oooh, rocco… that boy and his dancing! oh my. he took it to the next. level. that night.]

[a completely magical lantern scenario… and also, i kiiind of think it’s the cutest that my kiddos are so so used to tagging along with their beloved anna and “coggin” that they seriously would’ve been right behind them in every single wedding photo of the night if they could’ve! haha.]

[perfection, these two <3]

following last weekend’s rehearsal dinner night… was the wedding!!! we danced our hearts out in celebration of our two beautiful lovebirdies, and it was a truly perfect evening. honestly, i didn’t have my camera on me for most of it, but i kept running to grab it just for a few photos and then would stick it back in my stash of items… now i wish i had captured so many more little scenes!

so… anyway! somehow my brother, stephen, managed to find himself another half-italian here in the south… [yay!! ;)] which means… yep, a shared love of wine and a whooole lot of family and friends! which is the very, very best thing. however, all of our extended fam is out of town… [we miss them so much!] so, for this occasion, these two were really happy simplifying as much as possible and keeping the whole thing to just our immediate families and each of their best friends for the evening. it was aaabsolutely wonderful… serene and intimate with good food and fun music and puppy doggies and the stunning couple… and… us! 🙂

i know anna’s lovely family worked so hard to make this day dreamy, and it really was! it was elegant and laid back at the same time, and i feel like it kind of summed up our families together pretty perfectly. and anna’s dress!! she looked flawless. my handsome brother… he has the coolest ring, by the way! also, the weather!!! the weather was spectacular. you know how we love our golden hours. it couldn’t have been a more gorgeous evening!

thank you for everything, glass family!! and stephen and anna! and mom and dad! and umm… well, basically i was just no help with much of anything, myself, given my current majorly pregnant status… but hey! i love providing ring bearers and flower girls! 🙂

stephen and anna… we LOVE you sooo much!!!

[don’t worry, i brought my own instax cam! i didn’t use up all their film! haha!]
