What a GREAT blog! Being a total daddy’s girl myself I always love shooting the father daughter moments. And my biggest fear of getting married is watching my dad have that proud/hurt moment when he gives me away (dang monologue in Father of the Bride).

Yes, Alex, I still occasionally stalk your blog. You pictures are always amazing…Although, marriage has made me content and I not longer look at your pictures and wish. I look at your pictures and thing wow, how nice.

Yes, I really love that picture with my Dad as well. I was (and still am) thrilled you took it.

My ‘sage’ advice to any bride would be to listen to all the advice you offer. You do this all the time and are excellent. Spend time with parents, and really special people on that day. Those are the memories you will be glad you have.

Grrrr……you made me tear up when reading this post.

But a HUGE smile came across my face when I saw the pic of my Dad and I doing our father/daughter dance to Thriller!!

Thanks for the anniversary shout out. =)

GIG ‘EM!!!

You’re quite the tearjerker, Alex.
I still get choked up thinking about the phone call with my dad…and the first moment he saw me all dressed in white with no one else around and we both stood there and cried…and the drive down to the ceremony site…those were some of my favorite moments of the whole experience.

Thanks for all of your great advice to brides.

And have a happy Father’s Day.

Um yeah, that one made me cry too Alex. I still remember my Dad’s look when he “gave me away” – very proud, a little sad… Oh man there I go again! Where’s the tissue?

Oh my gosh I was seriously crying (at my desk…at work…) as I read this post! My dad and I are very close and so even though my mom planned a bridal brunch for me on my wedding day, I still woke up early to have breakfast in bed with my dad (waffles to be exact) and hang out with him. He gave me a card and letter that he wrote for me and sealed when I was 16! It was the best way to start that special day and it was a moment with him that I will forever cherish! GREAT reminder to your brides, Alex!
