Wedding Highlights

Finally!
Believe me when I say that Julio wasn't the only one jumping for joy!



The wedding and reception were fun and wonderful but I'm so glad it's over! 



Here are a few pictures taken during the reception with my camera.  I sure hope the professional photographer captured more!


Jeanette and Julio's first dance.  



Jeanette with her Dad during their dance.


Miss Em and her Dad during the same dance.  It was opened up for all Dads and their daughters.


Keiti, Kels and C8 getting ready to do their own dancing.


They know how to get down and they had so much fun!


The cutting of the wedding cake...er...cupcake.


The feeding of the wedding cake.  In case you are wondering, they were nice to each other.  Cake went only in the mouth.


Scrambling for the bouquet.  It broke in half so that made two single ladies happy!


If any of you follow Tauna's blog, you'll recognize this fun photo board that she made for her son's wedding.  She actually loaned it to us!  Thanks Tauna, you're the best! It was so fun to see how people posed behind the board.  

Here's Dan & Nicole with a sideways shot.


Not sure who this is but she's working it.


Candice and Andy


This couple was married a week ago.


Julio's parents and the newlyweds.


Congratulations Jeanette and Julio! 


May you look forward to an eternity of wedded bliss!

    I love that you got to reuse the photoboard!

    I love her dress. If I were to do it all over again, I would totally go with a tea length dress.

    That first picture of Julio jumping just kind of sets the mood and looking at all the pictures I can see that this was a wonderful day for this happy couple!!

    I LOVE the length of Jeanette's dress. My mother's wedding dress was that length and I always adored it. She looks stunning!!

    That last picture is just a neat one - that little platform is cool that the wedding couples can stand on.

    OHHHH and I love that you borrowed Tauna's wall - Now that was a great thing to do!!

    I am so glad that the wedding turned out beautiful - Isn't it a great feeling to be done :-D

    Looking forward to seeing some more wedding photos and some family shots. Want to see you Connie!

    Love those pictures! Love Jeanette's dress! Just love it all! :)
    And I think that Julio is gonna fit in with the Langston clan just fine. What a funny guy!!! :)
    I'm sorry we left before the dancing...I'm sure we missed out!

    I'm so glad you posted this. I was just sitting here wondering how everything went and voila--here is your post.

    Everything looks wonderful. After looking at the pictures it is obvious that Julio will fit right into your family. He looks like such a fun-loving guy--just like all of you.

    Your daughter looks absolutely gorgeous. Love, love, love her dress.

    That is so fun that you borrowed Tauna's photo board. I think that is such a fun idea.

    Congrats to the couple, and I love your photos.
    How cool......... I LOVE that her dress is short. How cute is that.
    and yellow is my favorite color
    and the photo board is such an amazing idea.
    Too bad my kids are all married, I would have done that (well, I take that back, I am glad they are finally all married....tee,hee)
    Maybe for the grandkids eh.

    And.......my Dear Connie. You are grey like Claudie and just as beautiful. NOT OLD looking silly girl.

    I loved that first shot of Julio jumping - perfect intro! What a fun and beautiful wedding it looked like it was! I really like the bride's dress - something a little different and unique. Can you rest up now?

    First of all, I am LOVING the creative pictures. The jumping for joy one will be a classic for them all of their lives...for sure. And those dresses on the flower girls are DARLING....really cute! Love the colors...I have not seen yellow used at a wedding reception in years, probably decades...which makes it all the more special. Hope you share more pictures with us!

    Whew! Aren't you so glad that's over? And that it went so great?
    And that you have time to pass out for a minute?
    She is so beautiful. I love the dress.
    He looks absolutely perfect.

    How many do you have left at home?

    Cute to see what others did for poses with the photo board. People kinda relax and get crazy.
    So fun.

    Uh, still can't decide if I'm going to share the apricot jam or not.
    (probably not)

    That's quit the jump. It is such a joyful picture.

    The bride is just beautiful as is her dress.

    Everything turned out so great. I am glad. How about a picture of you? We want to see how beautiful you looked too.

    The little girls are darling and the dresses turned out so cute.

    What a wonderful day.

    First off, that sweet hubby of yours has such an awesome smile!! Love the smile on his face as he dances. I bet he makes you melt every day of your life when he smiles at you!

    LOVE your daughters short wedding dress...it is SO adorable! The photo of them at the bottom, looking at the temple is amazing!

    I want to have a photo of me and my hubby and kids, holding hands and looking at the temple like that and have it framed and hung on my wall.

    YAY, that you get to relax and enjoy life a little before school starts after ALL of your HARD WORK you did with the wedding planning!!

    You are one amazing, awesome and inspiring lady and I look up to you SO much!!

    I've sure missed you and hope to be in touch better. It's been a hectic summer, but life is just about to slow down in another week.

    I hope you have a wonderful and enjoyable weekend!!!

    That photo board is such a clever idea. Filing it away for future use.

    I love how cute her dress is.

    Well, I'm not original at all. I wanted to say how much I love the length of her dress, but everyone else beat me to it! It's so pretty!

    Love it, love it, love it all! Her dress, the colors, the cake, the photoboard, every last bit of it!! Maybe I'll have to hit Tauna up to borrow it for the wedding we have in October...

    Ahhh! Beautiful wedding, beautiful couple! Congrats on getting it all finished! Of course, I'm scouring the pictures, looking for ideas. I love Tauna's photo board....I wonder if we're clever enough to construct something like that...maybe I can get my hubby Max to get busy building while he's home this weekend.
    Best of luck to your daughter and her new hubby! (PS...I LOVE that she wore a tea length gown. So did I--all those years ago -- and I think they are soooo pretty!!)
