Okay... so on with the TR...
So when we left off, the shoe jewels had been recovered, and it was time to wave good bye to the Poly and go to the WP.
By this time I notice I have 5 jewels left on my bouquet, so I say something to Amy (my WPs assistant). She said okay, they would take care of it.
So we went into the car, and off to the WP we went.
Meanwhile, the boys were walking into the WP.
Once the boys were securely in the Grooms Room
We arrived at the WP
And my dad was waiting for us.
Then we headed into the Orchid Room
I get into the Orchid Room, and more importantly the air conditioning. Ahhhh. Basically I just re-applied my shoe jewels, re-adjusted the torture device they called a bra, and chillaxed.
So as Im in my purse to freshen up my lipstick and notice I still have the rings I forgot to give them to Matt. So I handed them to Randy in the boxes and had her deliver them to Matt.
Notice that Matt is putting the boxes in his pocket .
Meanwhile, my guests that had been there for an hour; were listening to the harp music and waiting for us.
Then Maxine comes in and tells me were about 15 minutes ahead of schedule. Seriously? Why have I been rushing around then? Grr. So my mom says everyones here, why dont we just start So we decided to start about 5 minutes early.
Pardon this little rant...But my mom chooses this moment to pick a fight with me. Seriously? I had been wearing the jacket that Chriss Grandma made for me for the pictures, and had planned on wearing it for the ceremony. My mom didnt like that and proceeded to make me feel like crap, and got me worked up to the point of tears; then she left. I was fighting the tears back with every fiber of my being. I was hot, tired and really didnt need to feel horrible and fat at that moment. My dad came in and tried to smooth it over, but the damage had been done. Thanks mom.
I managed to not cry and held myself together. However, I caved and didnt wear the jacket and HATE all of my ceremony pictures because of my giant and discolored arms (I have a skin disorder on my upper arms).
So while my dad is cursing my mom trying to make me laugh and get over it, the ceremony started.
My mom and Greg were the first to go down the aisle.
Then Bob
He was just totally overwhelmed with everything, he even forgot his stole in the room; which is why he looks kind of weird
Then Chris walked down the aisle.
I didnt see this part, but everyone was talking about it So DF is walking down the aisle, and following Bob. All of the sudden he realizes he shouldnt be up the steps yet, so he turns around and does a goofy duck-like walk back to where hes supposed to be. It really lightened the mood for everyone and set the tone. Were just that couple. Too perfect wouldnt have been us there were a few moments that were just priceless-ly us.
Unfortunately, we didnt get a picture of this moment. Too bad.
So then its Matts turn
Then Monica, who apparently ran down the aisle
So Maxine comes in and brings my dad and I to the door, she re-adjusts me while explaining to my dad that girls have a code about these things again really helped lighten the mood even though I didnt want that to even be an issue.
So, then I hear the fanfare and chimes start and all I can think is NOOOOO I didnt want that I took it off the BEO Which is really so stupid, because it so doesnt matter, but since I was already worked up because of my mom, I was tail-spinning.
My dad noticed the panic on my face, and started cracking jokes. So we start walking down the aisle and he leans to me and says. Lets stop and make em wait. Posing for our public.
SMILE Okay go. Stop. Go. Dont trip the whole way down. It really helped me stay loose.
