September Weddings

The first weekend of this month was probably one of the best weddings I will have ever been a part of. My best buddy forever just got married to the love of her life!!! I felt so lucky to be her maid of honor. It was fun rehearsing and the rehearsal dinner... and the after party!!!! We had that hay wagon dance like I told you about. BETTER than the last time!!! The groom-to-be and two of his groomsmen climbed in Sandy's dad's pickup truck (and the rest of us climbed in the back/bed!!!) and we fetched a wagon................ o.k. in essence we had two hay wagons side by side so you could go from one to the other. =) Trenton had his car pulled up blaring out music and we had Christmas lights hung all around the wagons!!! It was a beautiful site!!! =D And when it got too windy and wet and it started misting we took the party to the barn and danced on the limed isle (with the Christmas lights strung up around the barn!!). We were rockin' out till 11 p.m. The wedding was crazy awesome. Everyone managed to pull everything off even with a few last minute changes. I was supposed to walk down the isle right before the flower girl and ringbearer by myself, but the flower girl was having a bad day (and therefore went down the isle with her mom and dad who were also in the wedding) so I had the CUTEST little ringbearer escort me down the isle!!!!! It was absolutely precious!!! =D

Sandy was such a beautiful bride. And Matt was the handsomest, and luckiest groom. =) They make such a cute couple!!!
The reception was perfect... everything was pretty and the food was good.

The DJ was great and the music selection was incredible.

(All the cute couples dancing!!)

I danced most of the time (and do believe me I paid for it for the next two days)! I could barely move without my whole body aching!

This last Saturday was Rochelle and Charlie's wedding!!! It was such a beautiful day...
in a gorgeous spot on the earth... so many colors... beautiful music....

and the most wonderful people all around....
We took the back roads there. It was a beautiful drive. Hills... trees... amazing view. The wedding was held up on a very high hill and the view was spectacular. At one part during the 30 minute wedding Rochelle and Charlie said a few words to each other and I do believe Charlie had every woman in the place wiping their eyes!!!



They were so sincere and so passionate I definitely couldn't hold back the tears. The reception was lovely! The food was SO GOOD!! I was on duty to help out with eight other girls (all of whom I'm great friends with.... so it made it easy to do the work). We served the head table and cleared all the dishes and cleaned all the dishes and washed all the dishes. Boy, there were a lot of dishes. What was only expected to take an hour took probably 4-5! We didn't mind too much though and it was wonderful to get to do something for Rochelle!!! They're going to live in Chicago and so we will all miss her terribly.


Charlie is a great guy though and so I know she will be very happy spending her days serving the Lord with him (because of all the young people I know they are the two most passionate about their work for the Lord). I have been very blessed to be a part of quite a few weddings and to be a witness at many more!! What a great thing marriage is!! Something that could have only been designed by God.

^{Ecclesiastes 4:9-12}
Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour.
For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.
Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone?
And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
