Wedding location: Oklahoma

Our bridal party and Family-Lt to Rt: Steve (Groom's man), Lee (Best man, Groom's dad) Lynn (Mother of the groom), Josh (Groom), Angela (Bride), Katelyn (flower girl), Nancy (Bride's Grandma), Jim (Bride's Grandpa), Randy (Father of the Bride), Donna (Mother of the Bride), Niki (Matron of honor), and Whitney (Bridesmaid). Since we decided to have it outside in the garden I wanted everyone to be colorful and not so formal. I found my dress at David's Bridal and we rented all the tuxes at Tom's formal wear. We had both the Ceremony and Reception at Festivities in El Reno. The place was large and very affordable, which aloud everyone some breathing room.

Sandy Caldwell of Something Beautiful Weddings did the bouquets and boutonnieres for us. She is a wonderful wedding planner and florist. You can find her on myspace and she even holds weddings at her house for those who want a small intimate wedding. We would have loved to have it at her place but unfortunately it wasn't big enough for what we needed.

My cake was apple spice and strawberry cup cakes with butter cream frosting and his cake was a dark chocolate layered cake with fudge icing and chocolate covered strawberries. We never did get to try his but heard that it was very delicious. The little red fairy in front of the cakes and punch bowl I did myself. I am currently selling these little fairies at Renaissance Festivals. If you are interested in owning one and would like to see pictures please contact me. They make a great, unique gift for the Bride and Groom or Your bridal party.

We did a Sand ceremony instead of the union candle. I liked the idea because once the sand is mixed there's no undoing it, not to mention easy to clean. My cousin Garrett was our minister for the ceremony, he did an awesome job for his first time.

We added a Best/silly wishes tree to our decor and used our extra invitations as cards for people to write on.

Everyone had fun dancing the night away. We also did a money dance that was profitable. We managed to buy a tank of gas and some groceries for the week. At the end of the night everyone blew bubbles for our send off.
