Love, love, and more love!

In the span of ONE week, we had THREE weddings to attend.  Yes, you read that correctly.  Despite having so much going on, I love weddings, and really enjoyed attending so many love-filled events back-to-back-to-back.
The first set of nuptuals was my cousin.  I don't have much to update you on/don't have any pictures to share because it really was quite the redneck affair.  We attended the ceremony, headed down a few dirt roads to the reception, watched the first dance, and headed to dinner with my fabulous family.
The next day, we headed to The Boathouse at Sunday Park and celebrated the nuptuals of one of my dear friends/coworkers, Ashley, to her high school sweetheart, Jake.  The location was stunning - perfect weather for an outdoor ceremony/reception.  The decorations were beautiful, and the bride & groom were so happy together.

such a pretty sunset

Less than a week later, we started a weekend-full of wedding festivities for Bobby & Kristen!  They are both good friends of ours, and we were so honored to stand next to them as they said "I do!". 
 

started the weekend getting our nails did

bridesmaids at the nail salon
After breakfast/nails, we headed over for the most personalized and thoughtful bridal luncheon I've ever attended.  Kristen's sister-in-law, Michelle, and her aunts threw such a wonderful luncheon.  The centerpieces were all of kristen's favorite things, the food was light and delicious, and the build-your-own lemonade bar was such a perfect touch.  I'm definitely stealing some of those ideas for any parties I throw for others in the future!


Kristen's favorite things - Pepsi, sunscreen, nail polish, and chapstick!

personalized with pictures of the bridesmaids/kristen.  this was us on our high school graduation day - we took a selfie (before they were #cool) driving down 95 on the way to walk across the sage.. matching sunglasses and all!

Harry Potter books & pretty flowers

goldfish, softball, and trolls

loved the blueberry lemonade I concocted :)

all of the maids and the bride
While we were primping & luncheoning, the boys went skeet shooting and ate manly things like hot wings and BBQ.  We all met back up at the church to rehearse

 All of the girls went back to Kristen's and the boys headed to Havana 59/back to our house, and settled in to get plenty of sleep for the big day.

getting pretty!
