lj: My Wedding

Once upon a time…

There was a boy who married a girl... Things were just as great as the expected!

3 years ago today I married my BEST friend! I don't know what I would do with out him. He means everything. I think I should write the rest I will write in a card and not on here:) So how about you hear about our wedding?! We had a bit traditional with a bit of nontraditional. To have all of our friends and family their with us meant the world to us..

Here's a few highlights before the wedding started:

I did all my own appetizers and roped my bridesmaids into helping me. This was for sure a 'do it all yourself'" wedding but I had a great time with it. The hair piece that my niece has on I made with some wire, ribbon, glue and flowers. I just loved the way both of these turned out! They both wore sun dresses from Target that were just so cute.

Before the wedding we took some beautiful beach/gazebo shots:

After the ceremony it started to rain softly. After ten minutes a rainbow came out and we had a beautiful night in front of us! I wanted everyone to show up in style, so each couple had there very own 'fancy' car to be announced at the wedding, it was a riot!

Our reception was right outside of our church in a beautiful gazebo. We had smoothies catered, cake and appetizers for all! What a beautiful night it was.

The reception was a wonderful time, but the party wasn't over yet! We went to my now in laws to enjoy some swing dancing and more food. This was a wonderful way to almost end the night!
