This past weekend was a wedding weekend for us. My friend and former roommate Casey got married to her high school sweetheart. (This is Lacey posting). I was in the wedding so John and I were there for all the festivities leading up to the big day: the rehearsal, the rehearsal dinner, the pictures, the ceremony, the reception, and all that stuff. It made us pleasantly reminisce about our wedding day and how great it was. We kept whispering to each other at key moments during Casey and Jordan's day, "Remember when we........." or "Remember when this......" or "Remember when so and so did such and such...." and we had a great time just thinking back to the day when we said "I DO" forever to each other. A few of our remembrances include the following:
--Remember when Jemima so carefully placed all the flower petals down the aisle making sure they all got used and there was just enough to make it to the end perfectly.
--Remember when my Dad forgot to lift my veil back after he walked me down the aisle. (Casey's Dad did the same thing, so don't feel bad Stuart). :)
--Remember when we had our first dance and John dipped me at the end of the song. (There was an elderly couple at this wedding who were waltzing and did the same thing--it was totally cute!)
--Remember that our food was so tastey. Cheesecake...mmmmmm. (Casey and Jordan's food was very delicious as well--they even had a really cool ice sculpture with their names in it.)
--Remember how all of our family memebers came together and did such a great job getting stuff ready for such a huge event!!
--Remember how my Uncle Sam from Canada came and helped run the show at the reception to make it personal and fun.
--Remember the awesome toasts Amanda and James gave to the bride and groom! We loved them! :)
There are many many things we can recall from our wedding which made it so wonderful to us, and we had a good time this weekend watching such a special day take place for another couple. It's just the beginning for them as it was for us!! I'm sure they will have many great memories to recall in years ahead, just as we do, and just like many of you. Feel free to share any wedding memories with us in your comments (whether they are from yours or someone else's).
