This is a picture of our invitation, program, favors, and menu cards. They were all created by the Bride's mother. Inside the favor boxes were mints with the tag "Mint to Be". These were created by photographer Kenny Caudill from our engagment pictures. The napkins were ordered by Advertising Specialties.

This is a picture of the actual wedding party. Each of the girl's dresses were ordered from Lena's Wedding Center and are designed by Forever Yours. The colors were picked by the Bride. The men's tuxes came from Mens Warehouse and were a black tux with ivory shirts and champagne vests. In the photo on each side of the stage are two candles. The candles on the right side of the stage are in memory of the groom's father and grandfather that had passed away and were lit by the groom's brother and grandmother. The candles on the left side of the stage were in memory of the bride's father and grandfather and were lit by the bride's stepmother and aunt. The aisle was draped in tulle with lavender rose petals and pew bows that were made by the bride's mother and the two officiants of the wedding were the bride's pastor and uncle.

This is a shot of the bride and groom in the white carriage from Desity Carriage that wisked us away in fairy tale fashion to our reception. As we exited the church our guest threw rose petals that we ordered from Sam's Club.

This is a picture of myself and my groom going into our reception. Across the street from the reception was a ravine and this was a quite moment for the two of us before we rejoined our guests. The bride's gown is a Mon Cheri gown from Modiste that I won from a proposal story contest. The groom is wearing a tux from Men's Warehouse.

The easel on the left contains cards and well wishes from my seventh grade students. They all wanted to be a part of my day and since they could not be there, they created this instead. On the right side is an easel with an engagement picture taken by Kenny Caudill. As wedding guest entered the reception they signed the mat with well wishes for the bride and groom.

This picture is of the groom's cake. This cake was made by the bride's mother, step-mother, and aunt. The groom loved this Oreo cake that the bride's step-mother had made him the year before for his birthday and he had to have it on his wedding day. We all thought it really complemented the table and the cupcakes were great for individuals to eat.

The wedding cake was made by Laura Lakes who was the same women who made a 50th anniversary cake for the bride's grandparents and couple of years before. The cake decorator took a pictrure of the bride's dress and recreated the design on the cake. The lavender roses which are the bride's favorite flowers came from Sam's Club.
