SHOULD HAVE BROUGHT MY GOOD CAMERA...

for the most beautiful wedding venue ever! Of course, it wasn't in the Oklahoma sauna. It was in the lush green hills of Nashville, Tennessee. We have known the bride her whole life; in fact she was born about one month after our daughter!
It was outdoors with some panel windows from an old church as a backdrop.
I loved it. It was rustic and beautiful against the green space. Floral pieces in birdcages hung in them and huge white flower petals were on the grass.
Other fun stuff...near the entrance of the garden...
Real flowers in the birdcage centerpieces!
I couldn't resist taking this one of the bride's cousin during the reception!
If you look closely you'll see the wedding photographer on the ground...and it was sopping wet! There was a rainstorm 30 minutes before the wedding! Unfortunately the wedding programs were ruined but everything else was salvaged and the wedding just started a little late. (Moral of the story: ALWAYS have a PLAN B!)
Our dear friends - this old truck was a great place for a picture of our guys...
while us girls tried to ride the tandem!
A simple but elegant cake!
We had a great time supporting our friends as their daughter was married. And I had fun traveling and dressing up for it - you know I don't get out much!

Awesome wedding! You do attend many weddings.

I just saw your husband at Starbucks. It's nice to know someone else needs their caffeine fix at 6:15.
