Holly and Michael's Wedding

It's official. Holly and Michael have"tied the knot!" It wasn't easy either (the tying part at least). Apparently, the ladies did not realize that there was a small piece tucked carefully away on the back of Holly's dress. The hidden piece was not obvious, yet it made it very difficult to properly tie up the back of the dress. Holly was amazingly calm and patient throughout the process! Here's mom lining up for attempt #2...

The guys had their fair share of difficulty as well. Between the five of them, only one of them knew how to tie a full Windsor. Thank goodness for him! Otherwise I would have had to hand off my camera to show them how it's done. I didn't spend four years of college studying to be a pastor for nothing you know! "The rabbit goes around the tree, down the hole, then..."

Now that everyone is ready...
I was pretty impressed with the rose petal designs that the groomsmen were able to put together with a little direction from Holly!


(insert cheesy analogy about embarking on a new journey together here...)





One more note: I was feeling pretty sick leading up to this wedding, and Bill Cawley volunteered his time to come help out, just in case we needed an extra hand. It really was an incredible relief having him along, and we couldn't have asked for a better 3rd shooter. Thank you again, Bill!
