Wedding Weekend Recap: Brooke and Ryan

This past weekend I had the pleasure of being the MAID (technically matron) of honor in Brooke's wedding!  So I took Friday off to help out with all of the decorating, to participate in mani/pedis, and of course, to work out all of the kinks at the rehearsal.  We ended the day with a super great picnic at the park where Brooke and Ryan met.  It was a stressful day, but also lots of fun!
First thing in the morning, we woke up from our sleepover (with our funny sleeping arrangements) and started getting ready for the day.  We gathered our things and headed to our hair appointments!
We spent the rest of the morning getting ready at the church, perhaps with some adult refreshments to help calm the nerves :)
We followed the ceremony with a surprise from Brooke's step dad; a limo!  So we rushed to get our stuff gathered and get the party started!!  We drove around getting some pictures taken and stopping at Bent River for some brews.  
We got to the reception and partied it up!  It was so much fun, great music, lots of dancing, yummy cake, and good friends. 
I also got to spend the evening with my wonderful husband, reminiscing about our wedding day and how much fun we had and hoping that Brooke and Ryan enjoyed their special day as much as we did!
Finally, and I know this was a really long post (sorry!), I just had to share the link to my maid of honor toast, which was, of course, sung!  Once I hit 100 views, I get to go on the Today Show right? ;)
