The Wedding

  • Jul. 11th, 2007 at 9:06 AM
Like I said, the cruise for Kimberly and Caleb's wedding boarded at 6:30 and it left the docks at 7:00. The cruise lasted for two hours and was the perfect weather (except for a slight breeze so they couldn't do the Unity candle) and the sunset was beautiful.

01.

While decorating the boat, I found a ladybug crawling underneath Kimberly's bouquet and was like, "DAD TAKE A PHOTO NOOOOWWWWW!" Obviously this wedding was meant to happen. Photo taken by my dad.

02.
Caleb before (or during the time?) Kim boarded the boat. He had to hide in the corner on the top deck so he wouldn't see her walking on the dock or her hiding inside. :) Then he had to MINGLE with family. :O Photo taken by my dad.

03.
The beautiful cake. Apparently it was really really good, but I didn't have any because I'm stupid and was running around taking pictures :p Photo taken by my dad.

04.
Kim and I posing for the pro photographer while waiting for the boat to take off. Photo taken by my dad.

05.
!!!! Ceremony begins! As the maid of honor and walking in HEELS I almost fell on my face walking down the aisle. Luckily, I wasn't the only one that almost fell...Dad and Kim had a tough time too. Stupid waves. Photo taken by my cousin Lacey.

06.
Bum bum bum-bum...bum bum bum-bum...Photo taken by my cousin Lacey.

07.
Ceremony...performed by Caleb's dad...I CRIED. And Mom started crying when she saw ME cry. And everyone else ALMOST cried..even Kim and Caleb only ALMOST cried...I feel like a big baby :p Photo taken by my cousin Lacey.

08.
First kiss! I love how Caleb's best man looks slightly shady in this photo! Ahahaa. Photo taken by my cousin Lacey.

09.
Presenting Mr. and Mrs. New Name! :D Photo taken by my cousin Lacey.

10.
After the ceremony were the tons of photos needed to be taken by the pro photographer...it took forEVER. Photo taken by my dad.

11.
GODDAMN BUSTLE. That's Michelle under Kim's dress...finding the things for me to button (which was REALLY HARD). Photo taken by my dad.

12.
Me and the Aunts + Mom "swooning" over Caleb. Photo taken by my dad.

13.
Cutting the cheese cake. Photo taken by my dad.

14.
And feeding it to each other (OH MY GOD, My first picture of the post!)

15.
Then the best man made a short and sweet speech...they asked me not to make one because the cruise was only two hours and they wanted time to DANCE.

16.
And make out.

17.
James was in charge of the music...and he was pretty camera elusive the WHOLE TIME. He and dad match, though. Photo taken by my cousin Lacey.

18.
Paparazzi Xenia! During the first dance. Photo taken by my cousin Lacey.

19.
Dad and Mom....AWWWWWW.

20.
The Father Daughter dance :) AWWWWWW

21.
Becky and her dad during the Father Daughter dance (they had the couple who the song was for dance first, then after a minute or so, everyone else joined in)

22.
Obviously, the cruise was beautiful.

23.
A friend of the groom sang for the last part of the ride.

24.
MOST MODEST GARTER RETRIEVAL EVER.

25.
I love how my cousin Scott is like "WHAT?!" The garter landed at his feet, but he didn't grab it. Caleb's groomsman nabbed it.

26.
OKAY. Let me tell you about the bouquet toss. My cousin Amy said that she wasn't going to go for it. If it landed in her hands it would be cool, but she wasn't going to get any bruises from trying to get it or run across the boat for it. Kimberly made a GREAT TOSS OVER ALL OF OUR HEADS and I turned around to start running for it, and I just saw this BLUE STREAK DASHING FROM THE SIDE to get the bouquet! Amy held it in her hands looking really shocked and just kept saying, "It was my competitive nature!" Apparently the competitor in her said MUST GET BOUQUET. Photo taken by my cousin Lacey.

27.
Kimberly's ring

28.
Towards the end, Caleb also picked up the guitar for some musical entertainment. I didn't see it, but I'm sure it was fantastic. Photo taken by my dad.

29.
The end of this post, but just the beginning of their long and happy lives together :D

Haha, he does look like he is proposing! What ruins the effect is that I KNOW he has his hands up her dress! Teeheehee, and yes, my parents were adorable dancing together :D

What Bryan thought
It was like a floating fairy tale. Until I look at the pictures I didn't realize how beautiful you girls were, I guess I still viewed you as my playmates when I was three.
