We celebrated the marriage of my sweet sister and new brother-in-law on Saturday of this past weekend. It was a beautiful ceremony! Pink and green were her colors, with the ceremony taking place on the beach and included their closest friends and family.
I had the priviliege of being the matron of honor, and it was such a great honor! I was able to be with her for showers, throw her bachelorette party and most importantly, stand beside her on her wedding day. My son was the ring bearer, the groom's father was the best man and the groom's precious niece was the flower girl. Both our parents walked my sister down the aisle.
The wedding reception took place inside, with tons of delicious food, music and a delicious wedding cake! I was able to make a toast and during the toast was the first time I teared up. I smiled the entire wedding. Why? I'll share my toast and then you'll understand my happiness.
Most of you know that I am Rachel's big sister and what some of you may not know is that I am very protective of her. There have been times when I knew what was best for her even when she didn't. From the moment she met her now-husband, I found myself worrying less about her and becoming more happy for her. I knew from the moment my son took to his future uncle that he was the one and that they would be happy forever. Congratulations baby sister and welcome little brother! Cheers to the happy couple!
Their wedding was the most beautiful I have ever seen. Filled with love, laughter and some of the best friends and family you could ever imagine.
Stay tuned for pics!
