Wedding Ceremony

While my back hurts from bending over to stain a dresser, and my stuff is sitting in the abyss of the POD warehouse, I will re-live the wedding ceremony to make me smile.

The limo ride to the church was a little toasty. We didn't know it yet but apparently the compressor on the Limo was broken and the AC wasn't working. Like how I said that like I actually know anything at all about cars? Once we got into the cool (Thank goodness!) church, we headed back to our holding room in the rectory.

The plan was to wait there until the photographer got there because I really wanted a picture of my Dad and I seeing each other for the first time. Well, there happened to be traffic cause of graduation that day. And while my bridesmaids had so coyly given the limo driver an alternate way, nobody told the photographer. She ended up arriving about 2:40, and we started to get ready so we could do the picture and then run to the Chapel.

I was trying to hide from everyone, obviously I didn't do a good job at that.

The Ring bearers, SO CUTE!

Kenny, waiting for me.

As previously discussed, my nerves were not doing so well on the way to the church.But once I turned the corner and saw Kenny, I only saw him...no one else. And my nerves went away. So it was good to know that I was actually nervous about the people staring part and not the getting married part :)

Walking down the aisle. Totally can see my Dad is crying, even though he likes to pretend he's a tough one

Susan and Brad are clearly having a good time, Charlie is in a state of disbelief over something Christy said.

Haha, everyone's faces in this one are awesome.
