i wish we had foregone the dove release :D

i don't know what kind of childhood i had, if i ever had any bad encounter with birds because for some weird reason, i am afraid of anything that has "tuka".. and that was my main concern when i realized that we were going to do a dove release.

i wanted to wear gloves just to get it over with but it would definitely change my whole wedding look.. and i just might not be able to forgive myself if i do that.. and i'd hate the birds even more if it even came to that point.

it was a torture for me to even just look at the birds without touching them.  oliver held on to both doves prior the release.

but for photo purposes, i just pretended that i did my part. :D
