(Don't you love that it's mis-spelled? I love my brothers)We made it through the crazy wedding planning and we're finally back to real life. There is so much to catch up on - the wedding plans, the wedding and reception, Christmas, living in hurricane. I'll do my best but bare with me as it comes in scattered pieces.
If I ever have daughters . . .
Dad offered us the money three months ago if we wanted to just take it and run. About three weeks ago I started to seriously question my sanity for not taking it. If I ever have daughters, they better take the money.
Thanks so much to all of the incredible friends and family who helped out with everything.
Jeremy Christensen - staying after work and in on lunch breaks to design and order invitations. We loved em Jer - they felt so unique and just what we were looking for.
Jean Orton - Reading my mind since we had no pictures to go off. I loved my cake!! It was simple, elegant, and Gorgeous!
Mike and Deborah Outz - their brilliant idea for a photobooth and the life it brought to the party. Zane and I won the booth from a drawing at the what women want expo. The Outz's are family friends and have done so much for us. (The pictures from the booth can be seen with the event password: smith)
Lacie Christensen - thank heavens we have the same coloring! Lacie did an amazing job with my make-up for my bridals and the entire day of my wedding (she even helped in the brides room) Thanks Lace!
Kori Dutton - We loved our Pics! Kori did such an amazing job shooting our engagement, bridals, and wedding day. I wish we could post all of them, she is incredibly talented! Our schedules were so crazy and she was so good to work with us and help make it memorable for us.
Mellissa Caldwell - She turned my crazy feather idea and fear of flowers into a beautiful masterpiece. (Thanks Jeff for letting us raid your fly fishing supplies). The first and last pic are of the live bouquet and the middle one is silk.
Mom - Making sure I had the dress of my dreams, humoring my determination to pull
off a wedding with no flowers and no round tables and all the stress and headache that came with it.Lacie McCullough - staying up all night hand sewing my veil, making 100 of the most beautiful cupcakes for my bridal shower (hope your hand isn't still cramping), taking a wet-wipe bath so she could help with with my hair the day of.
Chrissy and Aubrey - spending countless hours pulling together the cutest bridal shower, shopping at every store in town five times each with me for decorations, taking random materials and turning them into stunning centerpieces, patience with me as we explored the concept of a storybook/display table, hours of planning and setup. Girls, I loved it all!!! When I walked into the room it felt and looked EXACTLY how I had hoped. Zane had to shut me up that weekend because I just kept sighing over how happy I was with the way everything turned out.
Tammy - for making the luncheon happen despite the 45 time and location changes, pulling together outfits for everyone, and the beautiful wedding video (we were all in tears).
Mike and Damien - for driving all night to be able to make it to the wedding. It meant so much to have you guys there!
I can't say thank you enough to all who helped out in so many more ways than are possible to mention. We love you all and are far more grateful for your love and support than words can describe!!!!
THANKS AGAIN!!
