Goin' to the Chapel...

Congratulations Lauren and Rob!

Patrick's youngest sister got married last month. It was great to be part of her special day and to finally meet Rob. They are a great couple and it was an exciting and happy day.

I've never seen Lauren look so beautiful...and Rob looks pretty good too!

Linda, my extremely talented mother-in-law, made Lauren's dress with no pattern and it was amazing! It fit Lauren perfectly and was perfect for her personality.

The reception was also a result of the wonders of Linda, Lauren, and Melissa. They are all very creative and crafty and turned their visions into a reality.

Instead of a guest book, there were vintage postcards from Wyoming and Salt Lake City that guests wrote "Love Notes" on and then placed them in the suitcase for the newlyweds.

And yes, all that bunting was hand crafted and sewn by Linda.

Napkin rings, silverware holders, and lace covered glass all done by the Reilly's.

Lauren collected vintage items over the past months to make the centerpieces which were different for each table.

They collected wedding photos of those attending the reception and of ancestors and hung them around the room which was fun to see.

Sean, Jose, and Patrick.

Melissa and Jose got married in May and this was the first time meeting him as well. It's great having new brother-in-laws in the family!

Ayden's flower girl dress...did I mention Linda made the belt and flower?

Jose, Melissa, and Sean

It was such a fun day with great company, food, and dancing. It was so great to see family that we haven't seen in a long time and to have their incredible support. I'm so lucky that I married into such a fantastic family!
