The Wedding

March 8, 2006

It was so beautiful. It was one of the most stressful experiences of my life, but the end product was well worth the exhaustion. My best friend is a married lady and I cried all the way through the ceremony.

Some of the drama involved? The groom’s mother took a nosedive into concrete the night before the wedding and had to be taken to the hospital, the veil that was supposed to be finished by a family member had not been done by the night before the wedding, we realized 250 picture frames had to be stuffed with a slip of paper- two nights before the wedding, and the judge was almost thirty minutes late for the wedding amongst other things. Those are just some of the dramatic highlights. I wish I could make this stuff up.

To explain how beautiful it was better, let me share pictures instead of words. As always, click on the image to see it full-size.

  1. Toni

    Gorgeous!!!
    You look soooo cute!

  2. Caryn

    I’m so glad it turned out well, but God! the things that everyone must have gone through. Sorry there were so many hitches (no pun intended). The photos are beautiful.

  3. Courtney

    Toni- Thanks! And it was amazingly beautiful. I can’t wait until I get the real pictures from the ceremony and reception.

    Caryn- Yeah, it was a headache, but it’s over and they’re happy and married and that’s all I care about at this point.

  4. Cassidy

    So sweet! Sorry I had to miss it.

  5. Courtney

    Cassidy- You’ll see more pics as they come along and it was crazy-busy.

  6. Brian

    Who caught the bouquet?

  7. Courtney

    Brian- Maryleen did. She was one of the bridesmaids. The one on the left in the picture of four of the five bridesmaids.
