These photos were taken with my iphone! Ruth and I were talking details at the end of the trial, after the hair & makeup were done, and I just had to stop and snap some quick shots!

Are you thinking... wait a second, two different dresses? Aaannd you're right! Sisi and Yin were able to take photos on the beach with one dress (while the other ladies were getting ready), then Sisi changed into her REAL wedding dress for the ceremony! Gotta take advantage of the beautiful beach!!!
