Thanks.... I love the location too.
What you can't see in the pic is the waterfall behind the beach. It is awesome. Very small - we are having about 20-25 people. All family, except both of us invited one friend&guest. We didn't want a big ordeal. We wanted it simple, warm, fun. Inviting hundards of people is not either one of our styles. We would have eloped and gotten married on some tropical island, but my parents would have KILLED me. I mean, killed me DEAD.
Plus, there is no formal sit-down dinner. I wanted people to be able to mill around and talk to everyone. We are doing a couple food stations, plus 4-5 butler circulated hor d'ourves, open bar w/bartender, and a cake station. There will be cocktail tables (low and high) with chairs/stools. The tables have a silk burgandy covering, with ivory rose petals and ivory candles on them. Our reception is outside in a Tuscany-inspired courtyard, with flowers, trees. No extra decoration was required, it is beautiful. Simple and elegant.
Can you tell I am TERRIBLY excited about the wedding? I am really proud of it!
Not just the actual wedding, but the great guy I am going to marry! He is the best. 
How exciting Daisy! Isn't time flying? I'm down to less than 3 weeks now! Oct 15th. I'm going to do a half updo because it just looks better with my tiara/veil. It sounds like it's going to be beatiful! I'm jealous that you got to do a little wedding! That's what I wanted but as my dad gave us a lot of money to work with, it ended up meaning that he had a lot of say in things. So now we're at around 150 people. I was pissy about it at first but now I'm just thankful for all that we've been blessed with. It should be a beautiful day!
We went with burgundy too and lots of fall colors. Everything is all shades of dark red, apricot, and a little bit or orange. I'm VERY excited to see all of my flowers put together. I'm also excited to have a zillion pictures taken. I'm sure you feel the same way! It'll be interesting to see it all put together on that day. It's unreal how much work goes into planning!
Congrats!

Daisy I love small weddings a few of my friends have done that and it turns out very nice. Plus then they are no in debt up to there eye balls after. I like the idea of eloping as well but seems we have same kinda parents mine would kill me if I did something like that.
Everythings sounds so beautiful. I can't wait to see the pics.

Your wedding sounds great - I love all the colors. They sound like perfect fall colors.
The ONLY thing I missed out on without a big wedding is having a bridal party and choosing lots of colors. I kinda wish I did that - but then again, I still could have. I just chose not to. We have NO bridal party, which is kinda weird (planning the entry and exit was easy! lol) but also nice - no other people's personality to deal with! My Dad was VERY generous, but also gave me free reign to do what I wanted. It was easy, since he lives across country!
I kept them in the loop with everything, sending pics, etc , but overall he trusted my decisions. It was actually quite nice and not stressful.But I am ANXIOUS for it to be over!
I cannot WAIT to see your pics R, I know they will be awesome.
I can understand the anxiety Daisy! I know that everyone I've hired knows what they're doing, I just can't picture it all coming together. The worst part is that my family isn't letting me help with anything the day of the wedding. Nothing. They say that they want me to relax that morning/day but I'm just going to be pacing around wondering if it's all going how I want it to. lol I'm not good at chilling out.
I wish I had a picture of my veil. I love it...I keep wearing it around the house. lol For as much as they cost I should get to wear it a few times.
This is kind of a scary picture of my site but it's a restoerd 1800's courthouse. The courthouse is on top of a hill overlooking a river valley. The leaves should be amazing. We're getting married outside on the steps and the reception is inside. If the weather is awful it'll all be inside.
