Kenny's lease on his apartment ended this last weekend, and he didn't want to sign another yearlong lease.
Our solution?
To elope!
But after driving around that night talking about a Eureka Springs wedding, with no friends or family, we thought we might try to book a small church or something. So instead of eloping, like we had planned, we decided to plan a wedding............in a week.
That's right! Booked a venue, a judge, and a photographer............all in one day!!!!
Then even MORE scrambling began...........food, cake, decorations, moving Kenny in, invites by phone, email, texting, and facebook, ring shopping, tux renting, dress buying!
And I'm very pleased to say that we pulled it all off! With the help of some very amazing friends and family members. Thank you, thank you, thank you.........for the shower............for the help..........for the borrowing of stuff............for your time.............for the creative and generous gifts...........
About 80 folks watched as Kenny and I FINALLY got married.........after four years of patiently waiting!
And it was perfect................

It was all quite amazing. I was so impressed with how you put things together so quickly! It turned out wonderful! Can't wait until you get back from Hawaii and can tell me all about that!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words about my table.. and my wardrobe =D I bought the table at the Antique store on Glenstone and Commercial... the one with mounds of junk out front.
ReplyDeleteThey wanted $200 for it... I talked them down to $175... they had no change, I got it for $170. (I'm new to antiquing so I'm not sure if that is good or not)
Congrats on the wedding! I love your picture.... and I also love your blog.
Oh... any favorite shops you want to let me in on would be great!
happy anniversary! your dress was gorgeous!!
