Snapshots From the Morning of My Wedding Day

It’s been a minute since sharing more of the wedding blogs. I have a few more to go, but I thought it would be fun to share some photos from my camera roll from the wedding day morning. My goal is to get the rest of these blogs up by the end of the year, or atleast by the end of January.

No one wants to wake up sick on their wedding day, but unfortunately, I was not feeling that well, and neither was Leo. I took him out around 6 am to get some fresh air. One of the most beautiful things about the Greystone Inn is the sunrises. We sat on the dock together, watching the sunrise and getting so excited about the day. We both had some stomach thing going on, but luckily it got better as the day went on. I know I’m not supposed to eat scallops because they sometimes make me sick, but stupidly I ate them at the rehearsal dinner (they just looked so good!)

I was also a little nervous because of the rainy forecast. We made a last-minute decision to move the wedding dinner under a tent, and thank goodness we did because the rain was in and out all day.
The best man and the bride  ♥️
I spent some time with Kyle in the morning before he went off to spend the rest of the day with his dad. I was so excited that I’d be in my wedding dress the next time I got to see him! The dress I had been hiding for nine months in the back closet!
I felt so bad for Leo being sick and still a little down about Grumples, but it was important to have him there with us on our wedding day. The rest of the morning was super relaxing. I spent the day with my mom getting our dresses, accessories, and everything ready for the ceremony. She also busted her butt along with our amazing photographer to set up the dinner table. Since I decided to design the table, I did a quick trial run with my mom at my house to know what it would look like. She made it even better than I could imagine! I’ll share so many photos of the table setting in another wedding blog.
I loved seeing the sun rays shine through the big windows in our room. It eased up my anxiety about the weather, and I decided just to let it be. Kyle had breakfast with his family that morning and brought back some oatmeal and fresh fruit for me.  I drew a hot bubble bath to relax while having my oats and coffee. Whenever I’m feeling sick, baths help tremendously! The best way to relax on a wedding day! If you can, I highly suggest scheduling a bubble bath on your wedding morning.
The Greystone Inn in Lake Toxaway was the perfect wedding getaway for the family! It had so many activities to do, and you didn’t have to worry about entertaining your guests. There’s paddleboarding, kayaking, canoeing, hiking, swimming, horseback riding, boat rentals, golf, tennis, pickleball, games, restaurant, bar, and more! Kyle and I had vacationed there a few times (I still need to get those travel blogs up!) It’s stunning all year long.
