Andria's Wedding

Andria's wedding day turned out great!  We even had nice weather for the most part, though the forecast had looked kinda iffy.  

We had to make an early start to get everyone ready in time for pictures at 10:30!  Tyson (Jordan's cousin) did the photography.  A lot of these pictures were taken by him, but some are candids that Jordan's mom took.


I like this picture because you can't really tell that I'm pregnant!  Haha!


It's pretty obvious that I'm 31 weeks pregnant in this picture!  I got to be the one to do the lovely Maid of Honor's hair for the wedding!  :)


Here's all the girls that were getting ready in the 'bridal chambers'!  (Left to Right:  Anna, Me, Andria, Mary, Laura, and Christina)


Almost ready!  (I was tying the bows on Andria's dress for her so they would lay straight.)


Here's the Horak men doing a Pepsi commercial.  Just kidding!  It kind of looks like they could be, though....  ;)


On the right is Jordan's grandpa (who we call "Pa"), and the gentleman on the left is Pa's brother John


And here's the bride all ready for her wedding!


Anna & Andria


The bridal party
Left to Right:  Laura (bridesmaid and long-time friend of Andria's), Anna (Maid of Honor), Christina (flowergirl and Daniel's youngest sister), Andria, Daniel, Ben (Best Man and Daniel's brother), and Josh (Groomsman and Daniel's brother)


I like this sweet picture of Andria with her mom


Pretty (and HAPPY) bride!


Bride and Groom

They had a very nice traditional ceremony and I got to be their pianist, which I thoroughly enjoyed...especially because the church happened to have an extremely nice piano!  :)  Andria's uncle Drew gave the challenge to the Bride & Groom and it was very good!


Jordan had the honor of escorting his mom in at the beginning of the ceremony.  I think this is such a good picture of both of them!


Mothers lighting the candles


My favorite part of any wedding:  the bride's entrance, especially when escorted by her dad!


A bird's eye view of the ceremony while Uncle Drew was speaking



The vows and exchanging of the rings.  Their pastor officiated for them.


Presenting Mr. & Mrs.!!  :)


Lots of bubbles!


Daniel's sisters:  Christina, Jessica, Emily, and Ruth


Jordan's great-grandma (who we all call Nana) was there!  Here she is holding Uncle Drew's youngest, Chloe.

It was fun to visit with all the friends and family at the reception after the wedding!

After Daniel & Andria left for their honeymoon, we all made short work of cleaning up the church.  When we got home, we were all so tired, so we decided to get some movies to relax with.  We enjoyed some frozen pizzas while the girls watched Bride Wars and the boys watched The Dark Knight.  Fun times!
