Tiffany's Wedding

On Saturday, my cousin Tiffany got married! She is my mom's youngest brother's oldest girl (in case anyone is keeping track!). The wedding was so pretty, and Tiffany was absolutely gorgeous!! It was the first time that I had met Tim (who is now her husband), but he seemed like a really nice guy, and we are so happy for them! :D

We got to the rehearsal a little late, but just in time for me to be able to run through the music with Julie and Jess! The songs they sang were "Be Thou My Vision" arranged by John Rutter (An absolute favorite of mine!!!) and "Holding Hands" by Steve Green. They sounded so good! The rehearsal dinner was at an adorable restaurant in Walnut called "Our Home Is Yours." We all really enjoyed our time there!

Tiffany's wedding day dawned sunny and warm! It really was perfect! Jordan & Jason spent the morning with Uncle Bruce on the golf course, while we girls (and Kaden!) hung out at Grandma's house.

Meanwhile, preparations for the wedding were underway! I stole some pictures from Christa's Facebook (Tiffany's younger sister), because she had so many good ones of everyone!

Tiffany all dressed up in her wedding gown. She looked so beautiful!

Tiffany's little brother Tyler was a junior groomsman. He looked so sharp in his tux!

Tiffany had an amazing photographer! I can't wait to see the pictures that she took!

Awww!

Christa was such a sweet MoH for her sister! The 'toast' that she did for Tiff and Tim at the reception was so sweet and thoughtful! I wish I had a recording of it!

Tiffany was such a happy bride!

The wedding ceremony was very nice, and reflected Tiffany's desire to glorify God. Since I played the piano for the special music, I got to sit in the front and had a great view for taking pictures! :)

Since we were in the front of the church, Julie, Jess, & I were among the first ones out! Thankfully it was such a pretty day that we really enjoyed our little wait until the big send-off of the bride and groom.

Here they come!
Notice Jason over to the right...he looks pretty serious about this blowing bubbles thing! Haha!

Hooray!

The reception was held at a place in La Salle called "Celebration 150." It was a really nice place! Everything was decorated so beautifully! We had a wonderful meal and had lots of time to visit with our relatives!

Here is the cake! Isn't it cute?!

Aunt Carla and Uncle Tim (isn't this a sweet picture?!)

We got some pictures with our cousins and aunts & uncles. Of course, Tim and Carla and their family were a little busy celebrating, so these pictures are minus them....

And here we are with the aunts, uncles, and boyfriends added in!
(Uncle Tim, Mom, Courtney, Jessica, Kurt, Julie, Doug, Julia & Kaden, Jason, Me, Jordan, Patrick, Pat, Aunt Leslie, Suzanne, Carly, Uncle Bruce, Mike, Aunt Jill, and Uncle Craig) - Whew! That was a lot of people to cram into one picture!!!

I cannot even say how great it was to finally be back together with my aunts, uncles, and cousins! We are so blessed that God has moved us closer to our families!!
