It was a gorgeous day and everyone looked beautiful and or handsome. I was so relieved to have the wedding day come and run so smoothly, it was quite the blessing, seeing as the few days leading up to the wedding were not much fun at all. Just a bit of drama…
I was busy doing the mother of the bride duties and trying to get everything squared away with the cost, the food, the pictures and clothing and all the many other little details, down to making of the jewelry for the bride and… well…
OH MY! What work.
The drama was at its peak when I had been trying to get my own dress ready for the wedding, only minutes before going to the wedding rehearsal, I had decided to steam iron my dress, because it had been sent by mail and had some very prominent wrinkles I wanted to get out. BUT I have learned never to do that with a regular iron, even if the manufacturer says it’s possible… I BURNED A BIG HUGE HOLE or I should say a LINE of holes into my dress by barely touching the dress with the tip of the iron. (Taffeta and irons...they don’t mix) So to say the least, I have learned that I can be very resourceful when necessary, I made it a point to searched for a solution during the next very few hours that I had left - this was the day before the wedding I might add - and came up with making a big collage of flowers from lace that I felt matched well enough and covered my many holes. Everyone said they couldn't even tell and that they had thought the dress had come with the flowers… well even if they could tell, I am so very glad they were nice enough to say that they couldn't.
All in all, the wedding day was a fantastic day, I am so happy for the both of them, and I am so excited to have a new addition to our wonderful family by way of a new son in-law.
We love you dearly Lance welcome to our family!
The flowers I have to tell you were incredible!
My Thanks to Lances' Mother, who did the beautiful flowers.The reception center was beautiful, the day was sunny and at just the right temperature. We all had an incredible blast! (I am pretty sure I can speak for everyone on that.)
