On June 13th, our good friends Elise and Scott tied the knot! I was happy to have a SMALL role in helping Elise plan her big day. My favorite part was attending one of her dress fittings (which was something I'd never done before, and during which I got unexpectedly teary-eyed!!)
The day turned out to be magnificent, despite any worries--- including a weather forecast calling for rain, rain, rain! The sky cleared up and was blue as could be. It was awesome! Denis and I were honored to be in attendance. :)
The photo above (and below) is my fave picture of the newly wedded couple
(in case you're wondering why I've begun with a photo from the END of the ceremony)!
The gorgeous bride, walking down the aisle... a pretty good shot, considering I was frustratingly trying to operate my sister's crappy camera [which may sound ungrateful, but thanks for letting me borrow it Annie :)! ]
Talk about BEAUTIFUL centerpieces! Roses, snapdragons and hydrangeas... soooo purty!
Marriage mug... we all sipped from it in honor of the newlyweds. An awesome idea brewed up in the mind of Shrier... pun intended!
Toss that bouquet girl!
The first dance of Mr. and Mrs. Scott and Elise Brunner. So cool!
This picture is awesome.
(please excuse the ugly, inaccurate date stamp)
Loooove the happy, dancin' peeps pictures
Mr. and Mrs. Koegel!
Denis likes this one... something sure must've been funny! :)
The men of SLHS, 1997, class reunion... plus Psycho Steve, class of '99!
The ladies of the SLHS men, aside from Andrea and Caroline, GHHS men's wives!
The bride 'n me.
My girl Elise... love her tons!
Seems like yesterday I found out she was engaged (which was last fall, at Andrea and Steve's wedding).
After the reception, we hopped on the taxi bus and moved the party to Jack's Lounge. Elise switched into a super cute second dress and it was time to really let loose! Too fun! This picture is of me, Leevon (Elise's best bud/hair stylist), Leevon's date/roomie Heather and Elise... like I said, FUN!
Elise, Donna (mother of the bride!) and Leevon... haaaaaaaaaving fun!
I think this picture may have been where Elise declared, "No more pictures!" I still took a couple more though, sorry! :)
I think this picture is a GREAT way to end this post. The parents of the bride, along with the bride herself, checking out the groom's new band. Best wishes Scott and Elise, we could not BE happier for you two! :)
