Wedding Recap {The Families}

I have to admit, the one thing I was super worried about was making sure that all of our parents {we have 8 of them} felt important and special on our wedding day. I also wanted to make sure we had plenty of pictures with our families. Even though it was a long and not super-exciting part of the day, I am thrilled that we have these pictures with the people we love most.

One of my favorite pictures from the day:
Whew, told ya we have a lot of family! Looking back I wish we would have done a photo with the entire enormous family--all the parents and all the siblings--but I don't think SJ has a lens wide enough for that.

I also have to share one of  my favorite memories from the day. I asked my dad to come to International Market Square to pick up Jason and I to bring us to the church. There wasn't enough room in our limo for everyone and I really wanted to just have that time with my dad before the picture craziness. My dad came to IMS just as J and I were finishing our Bride & Groom photos. So I yelled down to him to stand outside the elevator.
My dad couldn't see me from where I was, so J and I rode down in the elevator together and when it opened my dad got to see me on my wedding day for the first time. It was a really special moment. My step-mom started bawling!

  1. Beautiful photos! You look so much like your mom, it's crazy! My one regret is that I didn't get enough family photos b/c at that time things got so hectic; I'm so jealous of all your family shots! Great memories:)
