Bridesmaids!!!

On February 4th my mom, my bridesmaids, and I went shopping for the bridesmaid's dresses. I was so lucky that I was able to get 6 of them together for this. Jeana lives out of town and wasn't able to make it. I bought bagels for breakfast paired with mimosas.





We had two appointments for the day. The first one was at Bianca's Bridal in Modesto. Here are some pictures.....







Our second appointment was at David's Bridal. That is where we found the dresses. The girls were able to pick whatever style they wanted (with a couple requirements).......



                                                                         The Color!


                                                                     The Final Picks
                                                        



We made one last stop at Payless shoes (right next to David's Bridal) and were lucky enough to find the perfect shoes! It was quite a successful day!

Wedding party!!!

       Here are some videos and pictures of me asking my bridesmaids to be in our wedding. I had so much doing this!!
       For Brittany I got starbucks for my mom, Cindy, Brittany, and I. On the cups it said "Mother of the Bride", "Mother of the Groom", "Bride", and on Brittany's it said "Will you be my maid of honor?"............




Since Jeana is in San Luis Obispo and I couldn't see her in person I had Tim, her boyfriend, buy her some flowers and hide them in their apartment. I set up a Skype date with her and read her a poem (the same poem I wrote for the other girls. As I started reading the poem Tim gave her the flowers................                                                                    





For the other girls I typed up a poem (with the help of my wonderful Maid of Honor), rolled it up, and held it together with a flower.


Here are the videos of the other girls....
                                                                           Nicole


Sara

Gina (Ignore the background noise)


Jen (I had already asked her over the phone)


                                                                           Jacci

Eric didn't do anything special for his groomsmen but they are Travis (best man), James, Ben, Brody, Ryan, Eddie, and Mason.
I swear we have the best bridal party! We have so many wonderful friends and we would love to have every single one standing with us that day...but I think we can all agree that 14 (7 on each side) is PLENTY when trying to coordinate things! We are so excited to have all of our friends there for the wedding and fun!
