All About the Wedding: Getting Ready

Onto the morning of the wedding! I think we woke up fairly early since we all had to shower and get all beautified. Rachel's apartment was close by so she headed home to shower before we woke up but she left me a "Happy Wedding Day!" note haha. When we were all ready we went to a breakfast place called Le Peep. Luckily Jonathan had a hunch that we'd go there so he went to a different breakfast place. They toasted to me with our hot chocolate which was really sweet of them. It was a very surreal morning to know that today was finally the day and I was finally going to get married. I was so excited!

After that we went to a salon and Rachel and I got our hair and makeup done. Colleen took tons of pictures so I'm mostly going to just show you all the pictures lol. My hair dresser's name was Ashley and she was so nice and excited for me. I barely had to explain what I wanted. She knew exactly what to do. We had such a fun time.

All ready to go!

I started with makeup!

While Rachel started with hair!

Making my eyelashes pretty...

So pretty already!

Rachel's hair stylist was Taylor and she was also amazing!

Then we switched while Rachel did makeup...

and I moved onto hair!

I considered leaving it this way for the wedding...

Rachel's all done and beautiful!

I took a tad bit longer...

But it was worth it!

I was getting excited!

Rachel's pretty hair!

Just need my veil!

All finished!

Ashley and I!

Ashley showing off her work haha

 After hair and makeup we all got dressed at the church. There's not many pictures there because everyone started getting there and we all started getting busy with last minute things. Here are the few pictures that we did take:

The dress!

I'm all ready!

Jonathan's morning was a little less involved while he got ready...

He woke up!

Put on shoes!

Figured out how to put on cuff links...

And he's done!

You can thank Michael for these pictures. Once we got to the church everything went super quickly from there and by the time we knew it we were married!

Next I'll be posting about our ceremony so make sure to come back and check that out!
