I just don't know where to begin, other than to say we had a GREAT time, at a GREAT wedding for a GREAT couple. I will post some pictures for those who were unable to attend to get a peek, while waiting on the Happy Bride and Groom to get time to catch everyone up. I know they will be busy on their honeymoon in Aruba, hope they don't mind. I did not take any pictures during the wedding, I just wanted to enjoy the moments and I have very few of just the bride and groom, but I have some of them with family that I am proud to post.
Ready and waiting to go to rehearsal dinner. We left Mississippi at 5:30 on Friday morning and arrived in Katy, Texas about 2:30. We ran into family at the hotel immediately.The wedding party was headed to wedding rehearsal and we would meet up with them later at the rehearsal dinner. It had rained in Katy, Texas and would even rain more on the wedding day. I think it rained 5 inches while we were there. The wedding rehearsal dinner was a fun time. The power was off when we got there and the 1st hour was spent in the dark, other than candles in the table decorations. The food was very good and we all ate too much. I enjoyed the slide show once the power was back on. I'm not sure what time we made it back to the hotel but I was pretty tired from a long day and not much sleep the night before. The kids all stayed up late in Tracy's room and I got some much needed rest.
Saturday we woke to rain and thunder and lightning. We met up with family and friends in the lobby for breakfast and visited for a bit. I sure wanted to go back to bed and just sleep while it was raining, the weather was perfect for that, however I had promised the kids we would check out the mall. The Katy Mills Mall is quiet unusual in that it is a circle. You start out and just tour the whole mall and wind up where you started from. We saw many interesting things there and everyone managed to find something they could not live without, lol. Although it had been raining ever since we got to Katy, as soon as we were in the mall it really, really rained and stormed. I could just see us getting blown away in a strange town and no clue where we were blown to, lol. We ate lunch and then back to the hotel for a quick nap and then get showered and dressed for the wedding. The weather was so bad and so many clouds that our GPS would not even talk to the satellite, I was afraid we were going to miss the wedding by getting lost. We did have a small problem finding the wedding site, but a phone call to my bro and he talked us right to the gate.
Just about the time we got to the wedding the sun popped out, lol. The wedding was planned for outside with a backup plan for inside. I can't imagine the wedding would have been any prettier outside than it was inside. They were able to get some pictures outside after the wedding. The wedding was very nice and the bride and groom did not seem nervous, they just really looked great and I enjoyed being up front where I could hear every word they spoke and see every facial expression they made. I am sure they have some things they will share about their wedding day, so I will just leave it at that and post some pictures.
Pictures taken after the ceremony and before the reception and as you can see everyone had a very nice time.
