A Wedding at Christmas!

It is hard to believe, but the day arrived almost before we knew it. Not the perfect day weather-wise, but not as bad as is possible when you live in the middle of the prairies. No one got much sleep the night before the event (a little too keyed up after the rehearsal and the party following), but there were no yawns when the morning arrived. The women of the group (all from age 4 to 59) were at the hairdresser on time, ready to be styled. Some were happier than others with the result! Here the bride makes big-time adjustments for her sister.Back to the house for make-up. Even though all these women are naturally gorgeous, their features were enhanced just enough to make them look spectacular! The finishing touches on the last one were being done just as the Limo Lounge arrived to transport them to the church.


The ceremony was beautiful, touching, and very meaningful. It was made very special by the attendance of all four of the bride's grandparents. She knows she is very lucky.
The wedding party took off in the Limo Lounge for pictures, and most others headed off for the hotel. Keep in mind that these pictures are candid shots taken by the M.O.T.B. and others. More professional shots will be posted later. Here is the venue, taken from the D.J.'s perch, prior to the dinner. The room was elegant; probably the most perfect place in this city for a winter wedding.
Here's what everyone wants to see...the bride and groom! This was one of the first group photos - with the bride's immediate family.
With the groom's parents.
With the bride's maternal extended family.
and with her paternal extended family.
The young attendees behaved exceptionally well. This young man, nephew of the bride and groom, was enjoying himself immensely.
One of the nieces had travelled some distance to be at the wedding. Here she is, looking much older than her four years.
Her younger sister couldn't last quite as long as the others. She slept while...
others danced the night away!
The event was wonderful from beginning to end, and I know all wish the couple much happiness. We have many things for which to be grateful, among them that these three in this video weren't providing the music for either the ceremony or the dinner and dance!
