THE WEDDING

I know I always have some reason for why I haven't updated this thing but as you all know we recently got married and I think that's a pretty good excuse for being busy. I finally have a minute (even if I am at work while I'm doing this) and figured I would get things rolling. Anyway, I wasn't going to post a bunch of pictures but everyone has been asking so here you go. This is only about 1% off the overall pictures taken by our photographers, and probably doesn't even come close to what was actually taken by everyone else at the wedding. If you want something else you don't see here, let me know and I'll try to get it up. Or if you have some good ones then send them my way and I can add to my collection.

As far as the wedding goes, it was a blast! First off, we actually ended the night being married, so that was a definite positive. No major problems ensued - as far as I know, no one died, was injured, or was arrested. There were no fires or other life threatening catastrophes. As far as all of the regular stuff goes I think we had about 180 people show up. All of the vendors showed up on time and with all of the required equipment... with the exception of the DJ who did not have a wireless mic, but I guess I can take that if it's the only "hiccup" we ran into.

Our parents put in a ton of work the week (and summer actually) before the wedding getting everything ready. My mom's garden looked awesome! Dane and his dad built the bar (which is now in our house) and it worked out perfectly. My grandma made Annie and Beth's dresses and I couldn't have been happier with them. Mama P made the bouquets and they were beautiful - not bad for going to Horrocks two days before the wedding and picking out the best of what they had!

Anyway, that's the wedding in a nutshell. If these pictures tell the tale, I think it's safe to say everyone had a great time!
