September Weddings {2011}

September 10, 2011

Laura & Scott

Laura is one of my closest friends. We became friends when Wayne and I started dating back in 2002. She is mentioned regularly on this blog. I was honored to be a part of her and Scott's special day. It was a low-key event, but memorable and filled with happiness and many laughs by everyone. They were married on a roof-top in downtown Minneapolis. It was quite ~~hot~~ warm that day, but beautiful to say the least.

Me, Amy, Tammy and Nancy

I have begun friendships with these ladies through Laura's friendship. Such a great group of ladies!

Wayne had to work, so my sister, Amie, came to help me that day. So grateful for her and everything she does for me! Love you, Amie!

Another one of just the girls. We were having fun and laughing lots.

Reception was held in the same building downtown. It was a great space.

There was so much food. And it all was so yummy!

Yummy cake.

Josh & Michaela

Wayne and Josh have been friends since 2004, when Wayne started working at KCLD in St. Cloud. We were there when Josh first started dating Michaela and have seen their relationship grow from just dating, to moving in together, to getting engaged, to now married! We don't see them as often as we would like, but are hoping to change that. Josh was working in Rochester with Michaela commuting to the Cities everyday, so they were living in between, but Josh recently found a great new job in the Cities, so now they are moving closer! I hope that means getting together more often!

Wayne went to the rehearsal & dinner Friday night (9/23) in Welch, MN by himself cause he also needed to pick up his tux in Rochester. I had to work and it was a lot of driving around to take Hailey with. The next day our little family of three made our way down to Welch, MN for the ceremony and then onto Red Wing for the reception. Everything was beautiful, especially the Bride. Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the day.

Wayne was an Usher. He felt totally honored as he was the only person in the wedding party that wasn't a family member. I thought that meant a lot being he was the only friend in the wedding.

This was Hailey napping while the professional pictures were taking place. She slept a lot that day. Isn't her outfit cute?

Smiling in her sleep.

They are married!

Isn't her dress gorgeous ??

This is the head table. I was so honored and thankful to get to sit with my Hubby and be included. Also, look at that view!! It was a beautiful venue!
