The wedding day is here!

Yesterday ended up being pretty bad for me, I started to get a headache as I was writing my post and by the time we'd sat here and relaxed to watch Stargate SG-1 together, it was really bad.  I seriously thought I was going to have to go to the hospital.  It turned into a migraine later, and so it sucked up my entire morning which I had planned to be productive during!

I slowly made it up and arround, and we were only about 15 mins late getting to the church (we were getting there early, anyhow, but we were slower than Sarah and Leah!)

From that point out, it went really well.  We surveyed everything and started to figure out what had to happen.  Everything got moved in the sanctuary that needed to, and same for the reception room.  I tried to take a bunch of pictures so that we'll know where things go when we are putting things away tonight.

Lisa and her friend Brandy put up the pew bows and fixed the ones that didn't stay on their clips with the hot glue gun real quick.  They look pretty :)

One member of the wedding party was 45 minutes late, so we were late starting the rehearsal.  Eric ended up doing the music, and he did great.  He was going to sit in the front and take pictures for me, but now he has a job :)  It'll be fine, Sarah keeps reminding me that other people will be taking pictures.  But then I think back to her wedding, and the only pictures I got were the not-so-great ones on my camera, so... heh.  It's okay, it'll work out, and E is needed in the music area so much more. 

As I stood on the edge of the stage during the reception, my feet were so tired and it wasn't even the full length of the service.  I really hope I can stretch my feet without the photographer catching me swapping feet around.  Bad thing is, I'm on the edge of the stairs, so if I were to fall down, I'd have a long way to go.  I was still a bit dizzy last night after all those headaches, so it was a worry!  At least I'm wearing flats, not what I made my poor bridesmaids wear!

We had dinner (first food I'd eaten all day, if you don't count a few pieces of candy and one cracker I forced down during the headache) and sat and talked with the Pastor.  He's such an interesting guy, we've heard him speak several times at Leonard and Sarah's (and now Lisa and Jon's) church. 

Today's plan is to get the church around 9:45ish, so I better get hopping.  I need to wrap the present, paint my nails,  try on my dress one last time, and gather together all the makeup and tools that we need to do Lisa's hair from here. 

We'll put together the bouquets and tie the bows on (I went and got some more ribbon because I was worried we wouldn't have enough), and get more of the reception tables figured out (candles in the water, and make it ready to put the gardenias in the water too).  Flower petals will go out later on.  It's going to be beautiful, I'm so excited!
