I thought I could maybe fit the Ceremony with this post, but who am I kidding?? Erica and Russell’s first look was one of the better ones I’ve witnessed. The bridesmaids and the house party girls all wanted to sneak a look and as soon as they walked out they all started oohing and ahhing in anticipation. It was cracking all of us up and it was just a really sweet moment. This next series of pictures just gives me chills I love it so much! Even April said when she was editing them down that she was getting a little teary eyed.

And yes, Russell got a little emotional too. But we’ll keep that a secret.

happy happy happy accident! It could be one of my favorites from the day.

I love the sauciness of this picture! I even love that Erica’s hair is a little messed up.

I know I’ve mentioned it before, but I’ll mention it again. Lindi at the Bridal Garden rocks!! I know so many of my brides have been THRILLED with the job she does! If you look closely at the bouquet you’ll see a small picture of Erica’s grandma. I love the way she included the memory of their grandparents into the wedding.

In case you were wondering, yes. Those are WHITE bridesmaid dresses! It was oh so chic!!

Okay, I gotta give props to the best bridesmaids ever! I totally love these girls. And to quote Chelsea (far left bridesmaid on the group shot) these chicks are “bomb dot com”

Coming soon: Ceremony, more formals, and hopefully reception.
