Dolls In The Party

Who said you cannot make a wedding day go smoothly in a matter of a few months. Not me!

My niece Dana, and her now husband Phil did.  Preparation for the wedding began late August and within 4 months they had it all pulled together, without a hitch mind ya.

wedding 016Dana and her three bridesmaids picked their gowns all on one run…They all went to David’s Bridal and found exactly what they were looking for.  Really all in one shopping spree.  I could not believe it.

 As soon as my niece saw The Westbury Manor she knew that this was the place to have a wedding party…I mean PARTY!

All the bridesmaids and the bride truly looked spectacular, but the children they stole the show.  My niece had 3 ring boys, 3 flower girls ,and one junior bridesmaid, 7 children in all…Really, I have never went to a wedding with so many children in the bridal party.

wedding 036Of course one ring boy, and one flower girl were Christian and Sophie.

 I have to admit that I did not have any faith in Christian.  I told my daughter-in-law, “Christian will never walk down the aisle.”  Christian was  going to cling to his mom as soon as he sees all the people.

 Boy, were we surprised.

Even the 18 month old flower girl surprised us.   wedding 049

I was truly surprised that when the boys came down the aisle they really caused a stir.  How sweet these little guys looked in their tux’s.  Yes the boys were a hit…not that the little girls were not…just that they got the AHH’s, and how cute they are, remarks.wedding 062

We danced that afternoon until the sun went down.  I danced so much that my toes are still pinging from dancing in high heels.   You should have seen my shoes, they were so great.  I am already thinking of when I can were them again…which will not be so easy since they are sparkle gold….wedding 092Christian went through the whole day wearing a mardi gra mask, after the cerermony.   The mask gave him his Bruce Wayne turning into batman feel…I just love him so crazy much.

wedding 025I do love them both more than life itself…watching them enjoy the wedding and see them act so grown up ish made me realize their precious moments are a once in a life time event…some day, just like my children, they will be grown and going their own way…

Here’ s to dolls in any party.
