Well our wedding was small simple and fantastic...didnt end up using any of the items in my vision, other than white spray painted cans with purple ribbon and wild flowers in them.
Got to borrow mini silver lanterns with tea lights in them for tables, black and white linen, and 140ft string of white mini lights from online...it glowed beautifully at night!
Poor Casey, cooking in his suit waiting for us for the ceremony to start at 4:30pm, we didnt start til 5pm...happen right? We had to drive the malahat, pick up the flowers, make our own bouquets as fast as we could, get dressed, it got crazy!
My dress is destroyed sooooo dirty from dancing in the dust clouds all night infront of the oudoor stage. It was great to see my year and a half old nephew dancing to his grandpa (my daddy) Phil and teh band playing his original songs...not to mention my nephew ran dry of his odouls so he had Corono in his sippy cup. Dont judge! Wasnt me! He likes to party, he's got viking blood in him:)
And this is him as our ring bearer, which was adorable as he first walked to a guest in the chairs...tries to hand her the pillow with rings on it. He was looking for someone else to take it haha. Eventually throws it on the ground, holds his arm up like "hooray" then looks serious to everyone and says "uh ohh"...he was adorable!
We did a non denominational ceremony, followed by a handfasting ceremony by my father, who also did it for my brothers wedding 2yrs ago as well. A great old tradition that goes way back.
Then its symbolic to sip some Mead, an alcoholic drink. Thats when he only put a couple drops in mine and lots in Caseys cup. And announced there's a baby on the way. Which surprised some of Caseys family!
SURPRISE!!
We found out on July 12th, the day before moving day, that we were pregnant! I was late, and feeling like shit...so as a precaution (so I dont lift anything heavy during moving weekend) took a home pregnancy test just in case. And it was positive!
I still have that stick saved in my bathroom cabinet...does anyone else do that?
So we had our ultrasound on August 8th, great heart beat, everything looks well. We were told 10 weeks and 3 days, Due March 4th! And then our wedding was on August 11th and luckily my dress still fit! PHEW!!
Wedding was great, asides from the fact my dad got too drunk, had too much fun, and fell dancing and realized the next day he broke his hand/wrist and he is still in a cast!
Food was awesome! Other than it attracted alot of wasps which stung my husbands finger, but hes not allergic...his brother is though. (I married the strong one! hehe)
Everyone was happy, beautiful, and enjoyed themselves!
We had 3 beer kegs...all of which ran dry, alot of my husbands friends got held upside down drinking out of the keg, priceless! Like high school, but legal LOL Wish I got pictures of that.
Here are a few pictures friends took. We didnt have the money for a photographer...so we had friends take pictures whenever they wanted and we hope to gather them up from everyone. My bridesmaid took some personal shots she still has to put on a disc from her great camera.

And kiss the bride!
We are now Mr & Mrs Bachynski!
