Wedding Weekend

Sorry I am just now posting this- I have been trying to get all my pictures uploaded to share with you. The husband and I went to some good friends of ours' wedding over the weekend. The groom was one of our groomsmen and very special to us, so we were excited to be celebrating with him on his BIG day! The entire wedding party + significant others stayed at the beach for the weekend and had so much fun! EVERYTHING was fun- rehearsal dinner, lounging by the pool, staying up late in the condo, the wedding, and wedding reception were ALL a blast!
We recieved complimentary bottles of wine per the bride and groom upon arrival. What a way to start the evening and a sweet gesture! We also got cute little itenararies for the weekend.
The bride is a sports anchor for WTOK and the groom works in sports media for Southern Miss. To say the pair love sports would be an understatement!
Due to their love for sports... a sports theme was incorporated into their rehearsal dinner (which was the largest I have ever been to btw!)
The grooms mother is a florist (how lucky!) and made stands out of baseball bats to hold some of the flower arrangements and the guests tables were adorned with boxes of old fashioned CrackerJack popcorn and small bags of peanuts. How cute! The groom gave each groomsman a wooden baseball bat with a thank you note carved into it. My husband loved it!
The food was fantastic and we all had such a great time dancing and laughing about how crazy the DJ was! We stayed up late that night in the condo and laughed some more!
The wedding was inside a church overlooking our beautiful Gulf Coast (which APPEARED to be oil free) and then we returned back to the resort for the reception which took the space of not one... but two ballrooms! Words cannot explain all of the flowers in that place! My pics do not do the room justice.


The bride looked absolutely amazing and the newlyweds were as cute and happy as could be!
Look how cute their favors were- flip flops! Pretty much all the guests changed out of their dress shoes and found them a bright colored pair of flip flops to wear on the dance floor.
 Here are some more pics from the night-
When the party was over- the mothers of the bride and groom told some of us girls to take any flower arrangements we wanted! I wish I could have taken more!! They were so gorgeous!

Thanks Jason & Heather for sharing your special day weekend with us! We had a really great time and wish the two of you the best of luck! Hope you are having a fabulous time in St. Lucia! Love you both!
