We were so excited to be at Luke's wedding! Jordan was best man and I was guest book attendant.

We arrived Thursday evening and hung out with Jordan's family...going over all the exciting details of the weekend to come! Jordan was planning to go with Luke to pick up tuxes that evening, but as a result of some unforeseen circumstances, we got there too late. (We stopped in Green Bay to get new cell phones, and it took much longer than we anticipated!)
Friday morning Jordan went to the reception hall with his dad and Luke and Grant to help set up tables and chairs for the 400+ expected guests! I rode in with Jordan's mom and sisters a couple hours later and we arrived just as the guys were finishing up. We spent the rest of the morning setting up all the decorations for the reception. I got to decorate the head table and it was so fun!! Before we got there, someone had set up a backdrop behind the head table (you can see it in the pictures), and a few minutes after I finished decorating the head table, the backdrop started to fall down!!! Thankfully, there were enough people standing close by that we caught it before it crashed down onto the table! That would have been such a mess!! :P Thankfully, Luke is somewhat of a duct tape connoisseur and got the backdrop secured to the wall for us!
Friday night was the rehearsal. Jordan's mom decided to decorate for the rehearsal dinner with a western theme, so we all tried to dress up 'western-ish'! It was really fun! After the rehearsal, Luke and Jordan and the rest of the groomsmen went to one of the guy's houses for a bachelor's party of sorts. They played XBox, and didn't get home until after 2am! Meanwhile, we girls decorated the church and then headed home to paint our nails. :)
Saturday was a beautiful day! Since I wasn't a part of the wedding party, I had a lots of freedom to run around and take pictures and help pin corsages and boutonnieres on people! :) Jordan's cousin, Tyson, did the photography. Since Anna wanted to save the 'moment' that she and Luke would see each other for the wedding ceremony, we took some pictures before the wedding, and then some between the wedding and the reception. I had so much fun 'attending' the guestbook! I loved getting to see so many people that I had not seen for a while...some I hadn't seen since our wedding! It took a long time to get all 400+ guests into the church!
I'll warn you...there are over 100 photos in this slideshow! If you would like to see the album and view the pictures individually, please click here.

The wedding was very sweet! After the ceremony, receiving line, and a few pictures, we drove to the reception. We had a wonderful meal, and Jordan made an impromptu toast (somehow he missed out on the communication that he was going to have to make a toast!) which I caught on video (below) and we had lots of time to fellowship with family and friends.
The bride and groom made their spectacular departure around 8:30 (I think), and then came the fun of clean-up (which we somehow managed to get out of doing!). Now Luke & Anna are on their honeymoon and I'm sure they're having such a great time!
Below I have posted a slideshow of my pictures from the wedding. Anna was a beautiful bride and Luke didn't look too bad either! (You know I'm kidding, Luke! I have to say that since you're my brother-in-law!) :D They make a really cute couple, don't you think?The bride and groom made their spectacular departure around 8:30 (I think), and then came the fun of clean-up (which we somehow managed to get out of doing!).
