Wedding...Getting Ready

Okay... now let's all get ready for the BIG day!!!! Time has come to put on the clothes that we had spent so much time picking out. Oh my...I sure hope we don't have any hic-ups...like a broken zipper...a ripped seam...or even worse...an awful stain... front and center on Haley's beautiful dress...now that would had sent this MOB into a crying fool!! Thank goodness...none of these happened and all went just perfect...oh happy day! Time flew by as we were getting ready...I felt like it all happened soooo FAST! People had told me that the day would go by so fast and I can say...they were so right. My favorite part of this time period was when we all circled around Haley and had prayer for her. As we held hands...everyone said a prayer for her...this idea came from her SWEET GODLY sister Mary Claire. I can't begin to tell you how proud I am of my daughters...they have both turned out to be strong godly young women. We had not told our photographers that we would be doing this and we got started she was not in the room...as we were praying she came in and right away started capturing this very special moment of the day. I will say...I'm so glad that we got all of it in photos. Thank you for coming by and now let's see a wee bit of our day.
                            Your friend,
                                 Linda 


              As the MOB...I knew that this was
             perfect dress when I first saw her in
                                   it!!!!!
                                    







                       Oh soooo many buttons!!!


                           















                       
                                  




                Love all that beautiful lace!!!

                          You just never knew when the photographer was getting
                                    a pic...I was very surprised to see this one!


             


             Of all the thousands of pictures that we have...this one is in
                                    my favorite top 5!!!!


                 A time that I will never forget.


                         Oh yes...it brought tears to this BRIDE!!!




                            Relaxing after a delicious brunch!



          Her something old was her grandmothers
               hanky...her grandmother that she
            never knew. My MIL died six weeks
               after my wedding. I have always
               tried to surround my girls around
                  some of her beautiful things
                  and she had plenty of them.

  4. These are so very elegant... I love the one of your daughter in the foreground with you adjusting her veil in the background. It's very symbolic and well presented. The dress hanging from the chandy was glamorous! andrea@townandprairie

  15. Linda, your daughter is a beautiful bride. Her real beauty, like yours, shines from within...the beauty of a godly woman. (She is worth more than gold.) What a special moment captured in time...praying together for the ceremony, and, I am so sure...for the marriage! Best wishes to the young couple...and to all the families.
    Hugs,
    Jane (artfully graced)
