| Our good friends, Adam and Kim Forry, were our gift receivers. They stood outside with this antique sleigh. |
 |
| My aunt, Reba, did my makeup. |
 |
| Rachel, Krista, Brooke, me, Jen, Heidi, Jen, Melissa |
 |
| We each lost a grandmother and another close friend within a few months of our wedding, so we had this tribute table for them. |
 |
| One of my favorites. I had these black velvet capes made for the girls and I wore a white fur cape and muff. So pretty! |
 |
| We rented "Charles Dickens" type costumes for our friends, and they sang carols as guests arrived at the wedding and reception. |
 |
| My mom has BRILLIANT ideas. She froze holly and greens in buckets (like an ice mold you would make for a punch bowl), and put a cup in the middle. Then, she removed the cup and put a candle inside. They lit the way into the wedding and reception. They were BEAUTIFUL! As the ice melts a bit it is even prettier. |
 |
| I love dessert! Instead of a cake, we had a dessert bar with this ice sculpture sleigh in the middle. There were several types of pie, cake, pudding, cheesecake, cream puffs, candy, etc. People LOVED this! |
 |
| We opted to cut a cheesecake (my favorite) for our cake cutting. |
 |
| Patrick's twin brother, Eric, giving a toast. |
I loved every minute of that day.....and I love you more now than I did then.

What an absolutely beautiful wedding you had! I love the special Christmas touches, the cloaks, the antique sleigh, the ice sculpture. Just gorgeous!
I'm proud to say that I was there! The whole wedding was beautiful!! Your mom's a genius with all the decorations!
Loved that day.So much fun and oh, you were so beautiful and adorable! ANd by the way bridesmaid girls- keep the cape! You might not use it often, but it is my daughter's favorite "olden days" dress up piece.

You had a great wedding photographer. Are you nesting and feeling romantic and nostalgic? It is so beautiful to relive those precious moments.... Happy Valentine's Day, from Michelle Brubaker
I loved these pictures! Especially seeing so many people I know.
I didn't realize you were good friends with Melissa Sauder. She taught next door to me for a couple of years. And that very winter that you got married she was Destiny's babysitter. LOVED her!
Also, I got to know Adam and Kim Forry a few years ago because I had their adorable daughter as a student at school.
Such a small world!
What fun to look back and remember your special day! Thanks for allowing me to be part of it.
