Wedding Festivities

A few weeks ago, I had the honor of being able to be a part of Heather and Kevin Wannlund's wedding. Heather is my fiance Collin's younger sister and I was able to take some pics of the festivities leading up during and slightly after.

For those of you who would like copies of any of the pics let me know!!

Ok So it all started at the bridal shower where Heather got to wow us with her Pampered Chef culinary skills!





Finished product... Pasta salad!!! It was sooo good!!!! 


These were some of the items we could have purchased for the soon to be bride 


The Bride and some of the Bridesmaids  


I love these last two shots! Mother and daughter and the apron everyone signed for Heather.



Next came the Bachlorette party... it was a night filled with fun here's a shot of all the lovely ladies! 

Then, shortly after came the big day!!

It started with lots of prep and fun with family and friends, hair, makeup and of course.. pictures! I couldn't take pics of the ceremony because I was in it, but I did get some fun shots of the reception!

The day started with cupcake making by Heather's grandmothers, aunts and cousin. 


 One of the harder things to do was the icing, it kept getting clogged and by the end everyone's hands started to hurt. 





Collin was all tuckered out from the previous night's work and caught a nap when everyone else was getting the cupcakes ready.


After her hair was done, Michelle did Heather's make up. Heather is such a beauty, she didn't need much!


Once at the ceremony site we had some down time between pictures and the ceremony so us girls got to hang out and take some fun pics of our own:

 I love our bouquets! 





After the ceremony we all got to eat the delicious meal, the new couple however only had a short time to eat theirs before they started visiting with everyone else.

Heather looked great don't you think?


haha I love this picture!

Collin for the .. probably 5th or 6th time, caught the guarder 


The night ended with some good old fashioned square dancing

Great end to a great day!
