The Wedding

 It was the wedding of the decade. 

Our best friends got married.

Also known as Brad's brother.

It was an incredible, beautiful day full of sunshine and plenty of smiles. 

It was a bit special for us, because we were all in the wedding party. 

 All the photos were beautiful and I wanted to document it all because Carrie did such a superb job on the wedding. It was one of the most beautiful weddings I ever attended, let alone been apart of. 

I was honored we were all asked to be a part of it. 

So there are a ton of pictures because I just couldn't decide.

 

 We started the day at the temple, where they were married forever. 

 Here is the stunning bride. Her friend described her as "Wedding Barbie", I mean just look at her. 

 

This is my favorite picture of the happy couple.

 This picture was a request of a nephew who couldn't be an attendance, it's pretty darn cute. 

 

The family. 

 The congratulatory hugs. 

She "lubs" her uncle Tris. 

On a side note we were discussing how sad it will be when she finally says his name correctly. Another side note, Little C can say his name better than her big sis. 

 Aubrey and her new sister.

 We are finally sisters!

 Here Carrie said to Brad, "I'm your sister now Brad you're stuck with me".

I don't think he minds.

 My darling nieces.

 

I like this one of Chris and his mom.

 Aubrey got some cute pictures of the girls, who were flower girls.

 Bridesmaid pictures.

And the wedding party... it was huge.

 

The groomsmen.

 Flower girls pictures.

 The gang.

 And we actually got some family photos ourselves. It's rare we get family photos,

it's especially rare that we are this cleaned up.

 

My extremely talented sister-in-law Janna.  

 We danced the night away.

 The reception was beautiful. It was held at a vineyard. 

 They hired our neighbor kids to run the soda bar.

 We ate our hearts out of gourmet waffles.

 

There was even a craft table for the little ones.

Pure genius. 

Carrie thought of everything.

 

Dancing with her new auntie.

 Look who caught the bouquet.

 Just look at her determination, she deserved it. 

She will never forget this moment.

 

Then they walked away in a sea of sparklers.

I was a little worried her hair might catch on fire.

But it was a successful walk. 

 And drove away on the motorcycle.

Perfect day.  

And then the next day I took a 3 hour long nap.

Next up... rehearsal dinner.
