Team Bee gets married: And the two become one

If you saw this post, you had a sneak peak of our wedding!

I decided to have both my parents walk me down the “aisle”.  I wanted to honor both of them, especially since they made the trip all the way from Illinois to Alaska for the wedding!

Here we are starting out.  My mother in law was so sweet to offer to get a golf cart to transport me to the pavilion where the ceremony was(it was slightly raining), but I wanted to walk!

I know we talked about something while we were walking, but I cannot remember what it was!

Doesn’t Rob look so happy?  He told me he was most excited about seeing my dress (I didn’t show it to him at all before this point.)

We had readings we read to each other.  I love this picture, and how Sammy is watching me!  Sammy had been there when I had tried my dress on, and he had barked at me!  Luckily, he was quiet during the ceremony!

I was SO nervous!  I remember Lea had told me to make sure and bend my knees.  Even the pastor told Rob – hold her hand so she doesn’t fall over!  I kept taking deep breathes, and tried to relax!

I remember some of what Pastor Doak said, but not all of it.

And then it was over and we were married!

My little guy – isn’t he so cute in his tux??

The happy family (and regal looking dog)

Lots of family pictures:

Appetizers!

Some of my favorite pictures:

We came back and the food was served! Sadly, I do not have any pictures of the food, but it was excellent!  We had a Southwestern buffet, with a choice of chicken or pork.  There was wonderful bread, beans, salad, and sparkling cider.  We ate, did the toasts, and then it was time for cake!

I only cut one piece of the cake, because we had the cupcakes for our guests.  However a couple people cut themselves a piece of cake!  I didn’t mind – the cake was so good!  Lemon layer cake with a lemon filling.  It took me a while to find the cake recipe I wanted to use – and now I plan on making it every year for our anniversary!

It was a rather chilly day, and raining off and on.  After the cake cutting, everyone was huddled around the fire because it was just so cold!  I decided it was time to end this party!  While I went and changed clothes, the boys had some shenanigans planned…

Poor Sammy…..

Soon we were ready to take off on our first adventure as a married couple!

Miss a recap?
