jessica and tim

first of all, this will be a long post...pictures mostly. in all my catching up, tonight may feel like a bit of a blog binge/purge, if you will. i tend to take a lot of pictures and then not post them for a long time thus the binge and purge. anyway...

congratulation to jessica and tim!

my cousin, tim, got married on saturday to a cute girl named jessica. it was so fun to be able to spend some time with them and get to know them better. they are a darling couple and i am so happy for them. i really enjoyed being a part of the reception, the lunch, and also the ceremony. i just love weddings! i am definitely int the right business! i love every aspect and wish i could do it all...cakes, pictures, flowers, dresses, decorations, etc. i decorated their reception ( "i" meaning my mom, rod, jd, adam, and allison. thanks for you help guys!) and i think it turned out fabulous! check out the pictures for yourself! i don't think these pictures quite do it justice; hopefully allison got some good ones as well. i had a lot of fun doing this wedding and can't wait for the next one! it was a lot of work, but good experience! thanks everyone!

the book table

the centerpieces


this is kind of a view of the whole thing. the lighting is kind of weird in this one because all the overhead lights were on for the photographer. i mostly wanted to show the lights and the tent-like thing we created. i think it really turned out great because it brought the ceiling down and make it more cozy as well as taking away from the gym-like feel.

the cake table....i didn't do the cake, just set up the table

picture display

sitting area

the gift table...it looked cute until people brought presents

here is a better view of the whole room, with better lighting
