Looks like everyone had a great time! Wish I could have been there.
Those are seriously the best wedding photos I've ever seen! I LOVE the cake!!
LOL, thanks, Mandy, that's really sweet. :) I'm sure the professionals got some awesome shots -- it was such a beautiful wedding to photograph!
the picture of Grant dancing was just precious!!
Wow! What a FUN wedding! I love everything about it!

She looks so pretty! I love her gown. It looks like it was a fun wedding. I love the picture of all the kids together.
That is like the cutest wedding! I really want to do mine over now ;) Weddings are so different than when I got married. It's all about being different and more sentimental touches that reflect the couple. Back then, we just chose a color theme!
