Wedding Bells

Please notice that today's date is March 25, 2013, the 5th day of spring...and it is SNOWING outside!!!  Over the weekend the Weather Channel kept saying that we would be getting some snow but last time they said that, it ended up being rain all day so I wasn't sure if I should believe them or not.  Well this time, they were right!  We have about 2-3 inches so far and the snow is still falling.  I started out with a delay that turned into a day off so here I am blogging away!

Last weekend I was blessed to attend a wedding to see two amazing friends get married!  Jess and I met in college where we were in a bible study together for 4 years and became really close friends.  We also took a bowling class and ballet class together in college!  Jess is a fellow teacher, teaching ESOL at a neighboring school.  Her groom, Jeff, has been a friend of Ben's brother, Kevin, for years.  Kevin was even in the wedding!  It was very special to see these two tie the knot in a Christian ceremony and a Korean ceremony.

The beautiful mansion where the wedding ceremony and reception took place!

Gorgeous dress.

Kevin and one of the other groomsmen acted as the flower boys!

Beautiful bride!

A (really dark) picture of the bridesmaids.  Sorry for the bad quality!  The room was really dark inside and I didn't want to use the flash.

Beautiful reception!

Her table centerpieces were so quaint and pretty.

The Best Maid instead of having a Best Man.

The Maid of Honor.

Their favors were some delicious cookies made by the bridesmaids!

At the end, the groom has to carry the bride on his back around the room to show his superior strength.

It was a beautiful wedding and I was so happy to be a part of it!
