Day of the Wedding

Finally!  It’s here!  We are getting married today.  Ryan and woke up and enjoyed breakfast and a relaxing morning (for about 30 minutes) before the mayhem began.  My family was there about 10:00 am and ready to work.  The chairs were moved to the front of the yard and set up for the ceremony. 

The lights were hung were with care. 



The kegs and more ice were picked up.  The desserts were plated.

The front porch was decorated and ready. I practiced and timed my walk to the front porch with dad.  And in the midst of it all, us girls (Julie, Mary, Karle and I) found time to quick go get our nails done.

And then it was time to get ready.  I started about 1:30 doing my makeup and hair and was then joined by my sisters and Alicia and we enjoyed some laughs before the photographer got there.  Ryan did a few things in the barn while I was doing that (since we got ready in the same bathroom – just not at the same time).  Misty Minna (our photographer) was wonderful!  Our DJ (Robert Navarre) arrived to set up for the ceremony and the reception.  And Pastor Tom arrived!  Everything was coming today.  And despite everything, it wasn’t too hot but was definitely warm! 

And it was time!
