The Reception Day

May 1, 2010 - So after our GLORIOUS and fun first night together. We were able to sleep in somewhat before having to get ready for the day. We woke up at 9 and got ready and met my parents over at their chapel to do some minor setting up to get ready for that night that we werent able to do on friday before the wedding sealing. So we did just that but once again, Mark and I had to leave early to go get all dressed up for the reception. So we left and came back home where Melissa (my hair dresser and make up) made me BEAU-TI-FUL! she did an amazing job at making me look so good, i got tons of compliments but really its her work that did it, Thanks! After that we then met up at the temple and took family pictures, and took some more pictures of just mark and i that were weren't able to get on our bridal shot night and which made us late for the ring ceremony, but thats okay because its my wedding lol. So we then drove safely and quickly over to the chapel where we did the ring ceremony and it was amazing! i loved it, to have all of my family and friends who werent able to make it to the sealing and for them to be there and to be apart of the wedding. After that we ate some food and then got ready for the reception!! We stood in the line for the first hour, LONG hour i must add but it was totally worth it to see everyone who came just for mark and i and how loved we are and how many people supported us it was great! Well after the line we got the night moving and started making some memories. Mark and I did our first dance and boy was it AMAZING, i love the response we got from everyone about it. I always imagined that my husband and i would do something about away from the ordinary and in which we did! :) we began with our first dance song and about 3 minutes in switched into some fun dance songs and at first we'd switch back and fourth and then did a couple together and then at the end switched back to our first dance song. it was AMAZING, i loved feeding off of the laughter and excitement of all of our guests. We then did the Father - Bride and Mother - Groom dances and then walked around for a bit talking to friends and family that came in after the line and then did our cake eating, which was absolutely BEAUTIFUL and it was AMAZINGLY delicious! which then after that did some more dancing and did the bouquet and garter toss. As the night was sadly coming to an end we asked that everyone would come to the dance floor and did one last song and make the night memorable. Then as everyone was starting to take the decor down mark and i did a final walkout and we took pictures and then went back in and helped a bit and undressed into some more relaxed clothes and drove home to drop the dress and suit off and getting all of our bags and things ready for the HONEYMOON!!! Oooooh the GLORIOUS honeymoon :)
