My sister's wedding ceremony and dinner

My sister got married!!! Yeah! It was an exciting time added already but add the fact that I was four days post c-section surgery and traveling with a newborn it was quite an adventure. Friday was the intimate family ceremony and dinner. It was lovely and while we tried to travel the 2.5 hour trip (more like 3.25 with the traffic we hit) in time to make it for the pics at 2 and the ceremony at 3 we were not on time. We managed to be only 18 minutes late to the actual ceremony, thank goodness it was so intimate that they could wait for us. Sorry Jen and L.

While traffic was unlucky, it was nice that both kids got good car naps on the way from Grandma's house to the ceremony. Jaydon wearing his suit with his ever present lambie, Lucy was in her wedding finest though I don't think I ever got a good picture of it.


Jaydon was supposed to carry the ring box down, I believe had we been early and in time to mil about and take photos he might have been able to do it on his own. As it was he was a bit shy and needed some help from dad to get down the aisle.
I wasn't in a great spot to get photos because the actual wedding photographers get priority positioning. Jen looked amazing! And besides you get to see Diane, Piper, Tyler and Kelsey in this photo.

I begrudgingly posted this. I really had a bad outfit but it wasn't about me so I guess it doesn't matter. It is pretty hard to find something that would work when I was so hugely pregnant leading up to the wedding the one dress I really wanted sold out in the color I needed before I could get it so I made due. Jen and L and Paul look good!
First kiss as husband and wife!
L is pretty smug I think!
At the family dinner, cutting the amazing chocolate cake.

Cheers!
Paul giving a toast to the happy couple.
Congrats Jen and L we wish you all the best and are so glad we did get to take part in your special day even if we ran late and didn't look awesome :)
(L is just the first initial for Jen's husband but he prefers to not really be mentioned online so I am respecting his wishes).
