Wedding Bells

So it's been weeks since I got back from Minnesota and I never got a chance to tell you about the actual WEDDING.

There were two whole days of primping beforehand. We got our nails done on Saturday.IMG_1515

On Sunday the wedding party did hair. I got a little emotional when Chelsea put on her veil.

The ceremony was in Chel's folks' backyard. Everything was lovely and I think Chelsea and family and friends put in a ton of work to get it all so perfect. Chelsea and Jeff were married with a view of a calm lake behind them. The sun was high in the sky and quite warm, really and I used the wedding program to alternately shade my eyes and give myself a little breeze.

Directly after the ceremony, the wedding folk ran off to take a million photographsIMG_1575 by you.

and the rest of us found our way to our seats for dinner.

All the flowers were from the local farmer's market and assembled by one of Chelsea's friends. I think our centerpiece was the prettiest.

Brett and I had a wonderful time.

We left the dinner in the garden and headed to the Five Event Center in Minneapolis for drinks and dancing.

I hope Chelsea and Jeff enjoyed their party as much as we all did. It was a great way to celebrate an amazing love.

What a beautiful bride Chelsea was! A day full of happy memories for everyone. What more could you want? Love the flowers. Aunt Karen has offered to plant a yard full of brightly colored zinias that we can use for your wedding. They are bright and happy and just the colors you've been looking at. I think it's a fabulous idea. Fresh and summery! Weddings are fun!
