Happy Wednesday, friends! I think this post will be the hardest to do of all the Wedding Week posts… there were just so many pictures to narrow down!
The finer points:
- All of the toasts were killer. Really killer. Let’s just say that there were not a lot of dry eyes in the house. And I need a box of tissues when I sit down with our wedding video.
- The cupcakes were totally amazing. They were so amazing that even if they are 10% as good when Brian and I go to eat a frozen one (or dozen) next August, they will still be delicious. Yum.
- We sang happy birthday to my dad, whose 50th birthday the week before had been kinda overshadowed by wedding planning. It was so much fun.
- Everyone was so happy. When I look at the pictures, it totally shows. I love that.
- The dancing was such a blast. I had been kinda worried that no one would dance because of the time of day. False. Love Train was definitely a highlight.
- The man next to me in the get low picture? That was our DJ. He put on the Cha Cha Slide and then participated. Love it.
- There was a full-out brawl for the bouquet. It was ridiculous. And awesome. One of my childhood BFFs caught the bouquet.
- The guys were not quite as enthusiastic. My baby brother caught the garter.
- We didn’t do a formal exit. Instead, we tromped down to the corner (the UVA bar scene), on foot, with our friends and went to a bar. The rain held off until we got there. When it was time for Brian and I to leave, one of my childhood BFFs hailed us a cab in the rain.
- Meanwhile, my parents and their friends drank wine on the balcony and watched streakers in the rain. What better way to end such an epic day?
Tomorrow I will be posting details and DIY projects!
Again, all photos by JMK Photos.
I love how you tossed your bouquet over the balcony.
Such great pictures! I love your dress–just so gorgeous! It looks like everyone had so much fun at your reception! In all of the pictures people are so happy! Just the way it should be!
I love your pictures. The balcony bouquet toss was genius. It looks like y'all had so much fun dancing.
Love the cupcakes!
Your group shots with friends (or family…or both!) turned out soo good!!
Looks like tons of fun!
