A while ago, we attended the wedding of some very good friends of ours in Carmel, CA. The bride really outdid herself planning the whole weekend, because everything was absolutely perfect.
First, we stayed at a bed and breakfast on the ocean in Carmel. Our room overlooked the cliff, so each morning we woke up to a beautiful ocean view.


The ceremony was held at the Monterey Mission, which was a beautiful venue, and for the reception, we got to play in a wine vineyard! Dinner took place in the barrel room, but we all broke away for a little walk through the grape fields, followed by the wedding photographer of course!


I can’t get closer for outfit detail in these photos without them getting really ugly and pixelated, but I think you get the idea.
When I wear wrap dresses, I usually wear a half slip underneath, in case a sudden gust of wind (or running through a vineyard) opens it up, displaying my unmentionables for all the world to see. I forgot my slip on this trip, but luckily, a commenter in this post (Thanks Coco Petite!) mentioned a great use for fashion tape: to tape a wrap dress closed! Thanks for the idea! I was thoroughly taped in these photos. =)
It’s always interesting to see me compared to other people. I look so tiny in the first photo compared to everyone!
