The CEREMONY:
After spending the morning getting ready at our house, my girls, my parents, Dakota (My sister's boyfriend), and I all piled into the limousine and headed over to the church for our 3:00 ceremony. We arrived at about 2:50 so I had some time to wait in the limo. You can imagine, I was pretty much dying inside at this particular moment.
Dad helped me get out of the limo
And I make my way into the church!!
I felt totally secret service style because at the church the entire entrance-way is glass doors. So if I just walked in everyone would have seen me, including Chris. So the limo drivers had my bridesmaids make a wall to block me so I could walk to the side and stay hidden. Not the best picture of me...but you get the idea, haha!
And then it began, and it's all just a bit blur to me! Chris' parents head down the aisle:
Our Bridal Party makes their way down the aisle:
And finally, I head into the church
I was just keeping it together for most of the way down. I was definitely nervous, definitely taking really deep breaths to stay calm, and the second I reached the front of the church, a huge tear collected in the side of my right eye (I really don't know why it was just one eye) and I had to brush it away before we were seated. I kiss my parents..

And the ceremony begins:
Kerry does her reading

And Ben does a pretty darn good job, too!!
We steal glances at each other...

We light the unity candle
And then we're done!! We're married!!!
