promises of wedding day pictures

I really should not make blog promises. Here the pictures are a day late. Their story begins here with a day that we will never forget. This is the beginning of a lifetime together... as one. To Scott and Megan!!!

The morning started off with everyone getting their make-up done. Here is Megan with Patty (I went to high school with Patty and it was nice to catch up with her for a bit. She was awesome!!!)
Here is Danielle putting on Cally's make-up. If you can't afford Patty call Danielle. She is equally as awesome!
Here is Amy getting ready! I think that she will go on record this day as taking the longest to get ready. She got her make-up done and then she was interrupted, got hair done followed by more interruptions, finally she was about to get dressed up and you guessed it, more interruptions! It was well worth the wait. She looked beautiful!!!
Here is a sneak peak of the dress. The sweet sisters!!

Hair time!!!!

Now that Meg is ready she was loaded up in the photographer's car and off to take some pictures. I will not lie. This made me so nervous, but make for a great picture. The day was beautiful as was Megan.
After pictures we went back to the cabin where Cally gave Megan a gift. Cally had collected letters from all of Megan's friends and made a book with tons of pictures. It was so thoughtful and sweet. Here she is checking out the book.
Pictures in the cabin!! Me, Hayes, Megan, Cally and Danielle.
Here is Megan with the ring bearers Hayden and Hunter. So cute!!
Mr. and Mrs. Broome also known as Amy and Bill. These are Meg's parents just getting the finishing touches on. I told you that Amy looked beautiful and Bill was so handsome! What a cute couple!!!Just about this time it got a little dark and windy outside. Just as we began praying it started to rain and rain hard. Here we all are gathered around Megan praying for the rain to stop but most importantly praying for Scott and Megan and their marriage. This day was not going to be dampened with a little rain. I am going to mention that once it was raining, we were told in a not so nice way that there was not going to be any way that Megan and Scott could get married outside even if the rain stopped. I wish that I could have video taped the events following this. Megan's family (brothers, sister, parents, uncles, aunts, grandparents, and even some vendors) all went to bat for Megan. They stood their ground and fought for Megan to have the day that she dreamed of. We did end up having it inside, but not before we all got to see how much everyone loved Scott and Megan. I will never forget seeing people running through the rain, without even thinking about it, to make sure that all was going to be done for Meg. Our family is fiercely loyal and protective of our own. :)
To brighten Megan's mood someone put on some music and all of the people in the cabin started to sing to Megan. It was sweet and funny and got her smiling again!!!
From here we went to the inside venue. Megan and Scott got married in a beautiful ceremony filled with a room full of people who love them so much. Andy said that he looked out and saw about 30 women crying. I was one. This last picture might be my favorite of the day. Here Scott and Megan are in their first dance. One that for a moment we did not think was going to happen because there was no power when we got to reception hall. It was a stressful moment, but eventually the power did come on and they were able to have their first dance as man and wife. I love how their heads are together. I can just feel the peace that they feel when they are in each other's arms. So happy, calm and secure. Every time I look at this picture I tear up.
I fell like I have said it a thousand times, but I will gladly say it a thousand more. We love you Scott and Megan and can't wait for the lifetime of memories that we will share in the future. We wish you a lifetime of happiness and love.
love always,
