To me, this is the 'true' meaning of a 'FAIRYTALE' - absolutely stunning on every level. The individual cards for the guests were extraordinary. But more importantly, you didn't just think about yourselves, you thought about 'everyone' - that to me was and meant 'everything' - I actually felt a little emotional - just incredible. Congratulations to you both. Much blessings, always, Psyche aka Psyche Thompson UK 🌹🥂

Had to pause and rewind. You calling Christian your husband is crazy! Been following you guys since before you moved in w him in the LA apartment! So happy to see how far you both have come and how much your love has grown ❤❤❤

Jaw dropping from start to finish… the venue, the little details, your dress, the night before. What an amazing time you all had celebrating your nuptials. Pure perfection.

[MommaFromScratch]

The dress with the lace sleeve omg gorgeous on you!! Your whole day looked amazing! Congratulations

[thenatster]

Oh, my goodness! The tent with the trees is just breathtaking. I like how you used the flowerpots at the altar. I can tell you really put a ton of thinking and planning into your wedding day.

[elizaanastasiou]

OMG you looked so beautiful on your wedding day.. and the dress ...to kill for. Everything looked like out of a fairytale. My best wishes for your wedding xx

[amandaanderson]

Having someone you know officiate the wedding is the best idea. My sister had a pastor who officiated my parents wedding. All the stories he told were amazing.

[Sooz]

Not the least bit surprised that your wedding turned out to be as classy as all of your designs. Also not surprised that you thought so much about your guests instead of just yourselves. As most people eventually discover, but you and Chris already know, it isn't about the ceremony- it's about the marriage. Congratulations to you both!

[ChicSabrina]

Kristen, your wedding dress is truly one of the most gorgeous wedding dresses I've ever seen. Adding those sleeves made it a dream! I wish I could add it to my pinterest board of wedding dresses, but truly, it was made for you! You were such a gorgeous bride! Wishing you and Christian a continued lifetime of love and happiness❤

[bevfast]

Kristen, ....this was hands down the most beautiful wedding I have ever seen!! loved everything about it!! Congratulations!! you and Christian are such a beautiful couple!! God bless your life together!

[ps]

Congratulations! As someone who has worked many weddings (catering and wedding cakes) it was so nice to see how focused you were on your guests' experience. Sometimes brides get so caught up in what they want and forget that they are really just the host of the event. I want to hear about the cake!

[raeleneoros]

First of all, you are the most beautiful bride I have ever seen. Your wedding gown is absolutely stunning! You look just breathtaking! From the gathering on the boat cruise for the wedding guests, to the personal note cards, the evening wraps and flip flops for dancing, you thought of everything! Wow! Thank you for taking us along on the wonderful journey! Congratulations to both of you! ❤❤❤

[sahleebacoto]

You're such a decent person to watch! I love all of your ideas. You're the first person I heard those ideas from. You're so generous to share them all. Imagine, you even thought of putting a mirror at the doorstep for guests to see how they look before coming in. For me, that's so sweet. Everything is so magical to see. You both deserve it! Congratulations! God bless you and your family more!

[dianejohnson]
