In June of this year my oldest child was married. She announced her engagement in early May and so the wedding planning was quite intense.
The wedding day was very deeply special. Many many people came together to make the day possible and it meant the world to me. Dear friends and family worked so hard to provide beauty and whimsy and love through the whole process. They dropped everything and were by our sides. Thankyou to you all.
My daughter is a person who has always been in a hurry to grow up and is often looking ahead. I hope for her, that there were moments in this time and this season where she was able to be present, and where she could feel the vast amounts of love lavished upon her. It was magnificent and full of light. It was what dreams are made of really.
My daughter and her friend did all the bouquets for the wedding day
So many precious people helped with the set up of the reception hall but my sister, my friend, her daughter, and my daughter's friend did a majority of it,
The morning of the wedding had many special moments. I have a few photos. Alexises friend's parents kindly allowed us to get ready at their house. There were a lot of people getting ready there and their home was so perfect and so beautiful.
The precious flower girls and a bridesmaid :)
My sister had so little time given to her to do my hair and she did a lovely job.
My husband had been getting the ceremony set up and then getting himself and our boys ready at our home. This is his first look at his oldest daughter in her wedding dress. It was immediate tears.
This was such a special moment!
