My sister is currently lying on the beach with her husband, sipping something frozen with a tiny umbrella in it, and I'm writing this over-photoed (I made it up, just go with it) blog post. It was such a fun weekend! My mom and dad threw a dynamite party, Kristen and Brad said their "I do's" and then shook their tail feather, and all is right with the world! It was everything Father of the Bride made us think it would be and so much more. I can't wait until she's back so we can relive it! For now I will share it all with you.

On Thursday, before the wedding, sweet friends threw Kristen and Brad a welcome party for their guests who had already made it to town. It was SO much fun! The perfect way to kick off a wonderful weekend of celebrations.
Me, Kristen, Nana and Mom....couldn't love these ladies anymore.
Then, Friday came! It was time to practice.
After the rehearsal, Brad's family threw a fabulous rehearsal dinner. Everyone had a blast and the weather was just perfect.
MOB and FOB. :)
Big Daddy- Giving the future Mr. and Mrs. a toast.

My mom's best friends threw the most wonderful and special bridal brunch. It wouldn't be complete with mimosas and Gigi's cupcakes!

It took a village to tie the chair ties....
Time to get beautiful!
The most gorgeous bride I have ever seen!

Everything was just stunning. Her dress, the cake, the romantic backyard...it was everything she and my mom had envisioned.
