Misty and JD's Wedding!!!!

This past weekend was the big event- Misty and JD finally tied the knot! :)

Friday evening was the rehearsal and the dinner was held at the Landon Winery in downtown McKinney. Everyone enjoyed the food, drinks and company. There was even live music that had people dancing on the sidewalks.* :) PS- If you're ever there, try their "Yellow Rose" wine...it's SOOO tasty. ;)

Saturday was the big day!!!! The ceremony and reception were both held at the Myers Event Center in McKinney, TX. The ceremony was held outside in front of a lake and gazebo. Misty and Chris arrived in a horse-drawn carriage and Chris proudly walked her down the aisle. Misty was so beautiful and JD looked like he was going to melt when he saw her (and that had nothing to do with the heat...). The ceremony was very touching, sweet and heartfelt...all the ingredients to make me cry...nice job, guys. ;) *

After the "I Do's" everyone headed inside for a nice cool blast of A/C, drinks, dinner, cake and dancing! Everything was beautiful and everyone had a great time! Other than the fire alarm going off (which didn't stop ANYONE from dancing...we're hardcore party animals), everything went off without a hitch! Misty and JD were both beaming and you could just feel the love in the air. :) The reception ended at 11 PM and we sent the happy couple off with a bubble send off!

Sunday Chris and I hosted (although Christopher's mom did most of the cooking) an "after the wedding" breakfast for family at our new home. A lot of prep went into getting the place ready for people to visit.

My parents came in town for the wedding Thursday night as well as to help Chris and I get the house in order. Seriously, we put them to work the minute they arrived (around 11:30 PM on Thursday) and had them working until the hour before we were expecting our breakfast peeps. Christopher's mom worked her butt off on getting our drapes made in time to make our house feel more like a home. Without our parents' help, there's no way Chris and I could've pulled off the breakfast, so a special thank you for all of your love, support, time, effort and sweat to get out home in tip-top shape. We love you!!! And thank you to all of our breakfast guests- we were so glad you could make it out and be the first to visit our happy home. :)

So a great weekend with family and friends to celebrate the union of two wonderful people! Congratulations, Misty & JD!!! :)
