Finally here! Pretty low-key, but high stress for me. I can only imagine what Ashley is feeling. Two+ hours before the wedding, I check in on her, Amanda and Lani (maid-of-honor & bridesmaid) are assisting her getting ready. They are double-timing it on her hair with dual curling irons. The best I can do is retrieve sustenance for the maid-of-honor, hold the curling iron and hairspray, and converse with Lori (mother-of-the-groom). Ashley is beautiful even without the dress. Lori's space is being invaded as her room is being used for preparing the bride.
I head out to get ready myself. Denial is still rampant.
Before the wedding we are doing pictures. I'm still ok. Such a beautiful couple. They were made for each other. They have been together for 10+ years, so this is a natural step. Pictures went well. Good-looking people on all sides of the families.
Ceremony - Beautiful! What can be any better than a terrace overlooking the Tuscan Valley?! Short, sweet, Ashley & Kyle are a little nervous. Kyle messes up a couple of words but it's totally sweet. Blink, blink, it's over.
My BABY IS MARRIED!! Reality sets in...reception is awesome. Proud Mama's tears flow. (See facebook reference on day of wedding.)
