My Big Day!

Well....one month later I decided it would be a good time to post about my wedding:) My wedding was everything I imagined plus even more (with the exception of rain). I have been truly blessed with so many people who made this experience in my life even more special. My mom, mother in law, and many other of my sweet friends and family members helped to decorate the church. Everything was lit up, and was very elegant. My bridesmaids looked stunning in their black dresses (not to mention about as skinny as a rail :)) The guys didn't look too bad either! My wedding was very simple, but I wouldn't have wanted it any other way! The best way to describe this day is to let you see it for yourself. All these pictures were taken by Calla-Lilly Photography.

 To set my wedding apart, I decided to sing to my husband. I love to sing, but struggled with this decision because I tend to be a little emotional. To keep this top secret only the people that had to know about it knew. My brother is so talented and is able to play several instruments. He lives about 6 hours away from me so finding a time to practice was impossible until a few days before the wedding. We started the Thursday before staying up til about 2am practicing this song. It turned out to be so beautiful. My brother, Matt, played the piano while I sang a song called Forever and Ever I Do. I was strong until about the second line when it hit Jordyn that I was singing to him and started sobbing. I did my best to hold it together, and I made it all the way through! I don't get to surprise him often-but this one was GREAT!

 

We also had a wonderful wedding party! Each one is so dear to our hearts. This is my favorite picture of all of us! We had so much fun!

 

And of course...we couldn't have made it through smoothly without our wedding director! Thanks Deidre for all your help!! I love you so much! 

And if course our parents....We love our parents so much. They have done SOOO much for us, especially throughout our engagement. We cannot express how blessed we are to have such amazing families. We truly love them with ALL our hearts!

We have been happily married for a month now! God has been so good to the both of us, has answered so many prayers already. We are so excited to see what all he will do in the days ahead!
