The wedding day is here and gone. It's hard to believe that all that time and work and now it's just a memory. The wedding weekend was a blur, but it was also so much fun. I had all my favorite people by my side. We jammed packed a lot of events in 3 days, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Friday night was a night out for my bachelorette. Let me tell you that having a bachelorette two days before your wedding is crazy! You want to have a lot of fun, but all you can think about is what needs to get done. Nonetheless, I really had a wonderful time with all my favorite ladies! Saturday was a day of picking out flowers at the Farmer's Market, Pedicures with my girls and a really wonderful rehearsal dinner in my backyard. I had so much fun just hanging out and chatting with all the people we love so much. We had the food catered by Famous Dave's and I think people all had fun munchin' on the corn bread!
And that brings us to the wedding day. HOTTEST DAY IN ALMOST 100 YEARS!! I am not even kidding, nope, not even a little. It was painfully hot, humid and sticky. Let me tell you that it is really hard to feel beautiful on your wedding day with sweat dripping down your face. ick. BUT... everything else about the day was beautiful and wonderful! There were no major complications, everything looked beautiful and the ceremony was amazing!
Tim and I did our own vows, along with friends reading poems, prayers and singing.
I could barely get through my vows... it was so hard to fight back the tears. I think i loved the ceremony best out of all the events. Our location was on a park reserve with a barn pavilion for the reception. The sky was bright and the lake and greenery were spectacular. At the reception we went all out with a photo booth, candy buffet, dessert bar, dance and fun picnic-type food. We all sweated happily together and it seemed like, despite the heat, everyone was having a great time!
It all went by so fast! Everyone says that, but it really did! I could hardly catch my breath, no time to sit, just moving around, greeting friends and loved ones and SWEATING!
But who cares about a little (ok a lot) of sweat when I got to marry the most wonderful man in the world! I am so happy to spend my days on this earth with someone that makes life so much sweeter!
Here are a few pics of our wedding day...
Enjoy!
