A Party To Remember: Next Day Location Shoot (Part 4)

Ok ladies, this is it. I have (finally) come to the end of the wedding recaps! OMG it took forever! Thanks to all of you who stuck around! I know I haven't been the best blogger these last few months, but life has taken over so much that the blog had to be put on the back burner. 

While I'm sad that the wedding part is over (after all, that's why I began this blog and got to "meet" all of you) I am excited to have the freedom of blogging about whats going on in our lives. Just to give you a bit of info about what's been going on in the Chocolate Milk household, we've been house hunting, I have started my own business, and we've even been on a few trips! But before I get to all of that, let me share my last wedding recap post.

So our final location was the salt lake right next to the airport. The timing was perfect because the sun was starting to set as we got there. Our photog was able to capture some beautiful shoots. Take a look for yourselves...

So after a second long day of wearing the dress, it's fair to say that I started getting a little fed up of lugging it around. And just as I was kicking it up, our photographer decided it was a good time to become trigger happy! Mr. Milk and I are both walking towards the salt lake, not realizing that we were being photographed. All of a sudden our photographer bursts out laughing and wouldn't tell us why. Now I know! :)

Doesn't the salt look a little like snow?

He lay down flat on the ground in the damp salt to get this shot!

I also just wanted to take a moment to thank you all for following this super important journey of ours. I have loved every minute of planning this wedding, and while plenty of things went wrong on the day, none of those really affected the outcome or memories of our day, so I've chosen to focus on the thousands of things that went right and I want to cherish. I've loved following your journeys and will continue to do so as we all embark on the next chapters of our lives.

This next location is an ancient amphitheater named Kourion. It can hold around 2000 people and was used for gladiator fights. Nowadays it is used for beautiful outdoor concerts and plays in the summer. There are also some mosaics and ruins of public baths in the area. The theater dates back to the 2nd or 3rd century AD.

It was a truly beautiful view

I love the area of our next location. It is a small, quiet road lined with huge pine trees. We were able to walk in the street more or less with out the interruption of passing cars. We were also able to find a pretty orange orchard that we snuck into and took some shots.

No need to tell you how filthy my dress was after all this :)

A Party To Remember: Next Day Location Shoot (Part 1)

We went to four different locations for our next day shoot. Basically we made our way from the hotel location to the airport where we had to drop off our photographer. Basically we made a trip that typically takes about an hour and a half into about 6 hours! Our photog and his wife were fantastic to agree to this! 


So the first stop was Aphrodite's birthplace. Those of you who like Greek mythology might be aware of the story of Aphrodite and how she was born from the foams of the water of the Mediterranean sea. Our hotel was just above this spot so was naturally the perfect place to start off.

Day one and Mr. Milk is already trying to jump overboard!

Gorgeous gorgeous shoes I heart thee

Love this one

The rock you see in the background is Aphrodite's birthplace :)
