Our Wedding

On May 25, 2013 Adam and I got married in front of our family and friends. 

It rained on and off all day and in the morning I was so disappointed by the rain, but now that it's over when I look back and remember things I don't remember the rain at all. 

Rachel and Alyse arrive at my parents house by 8 o'clock in the morning and we loaded up all of my wedding gear and off to the salon we went for hair and  makeup. The salon did a fabulous job on all of us and looking through the snap shots we've seen thus far the girls were absolutely beautiful.

After the salon it was off to our apartment to load up all the food Adam and I had spent all week cooking. The day before the wedding I spent 14 hours frying chicken and having panic attacks throughout the day. But it was so worth it. And the best part is, my cousins Noel, Lyn, and Kae all got to be there. They were a part of helping me get ready, they prayed with me and my sister right before the ceremony and made my day that much more special.

We finally got on the road to head to the hall around 1:15ish only to get ten minutes down the road and Adam realized he had forgotten his dress shoes. We had to turn around and he kept apologizing but I told him if that was the worst thing that happened that day we had it made!

We got to the hall and we had two hours to set up. Thanks to my husband, my sisters Jessica, Rachel, Alyse, Jessica's boyfriend Emil, and my new in laws we had it set up and looking quiet lovely in no time. Adam and his Mom worked miracles in the kitchen and I must say the center pieces I was so worried would be inadequate weren't so bad after all. I haven't seen any pictures of them yet, but I'm sure the photographer got some. I can't wait to see how her pictures turn out because so far the cell phone shots friends and family took are gorgeous so I can only imagine what the photographer came up with.

Speaking of which, the photographer is someone I went to beauty school and college with. Her and her husband have started a photography business and when it came down to picking a photographer, I couldn't think of anyone else to have done it and was so happy she got to be at the wedding.

The whole night is such a blur! There were little things that went wrong, but they are insignificant and not even worth writing about. Our wedding was perfect and he and I are so impressed with ourselves for the quality wedding we put together with $3,500. 

A special thank you to my new Aunt Ro-Ro who so generously paid for the hall for us.

And now, what you all really wanted to see anyway.... lol
