Wedding Weekend 2 (in which we drink a lot)

When Emily gets married you have to get up really early to start drinking get your makeup put on by professionals who will make you look as if you have not been up all night looking at old yearbooks.
We started with champagne at 8:15 when it was my turn in the makeup chair and Karinna's turn in the hair chair. When we ran out of that, Whitney brought out a bottle of UGA label wine from 2002, the year we graduated. It wasn't great or anything, but it was sure fun to see.

Congratulations Emi!

Flower girls don't wear makeup, but their mommies do try to get their hair to curl. This is attempt #1.

So much makeup!! (and wearing a robe made by Emily's mom that matches my friends)

The flower girls were so good the whole day. They got up early and watched the big girls get ready allllllll day. The wedding  wasn't until 5:30. They played outside, they ran around the basement, and they took turns on the ipad. The curlers are another attempt at getting curls in Ames' hair.

By this point, we've moved on to bourbon and have gotten ourselves to the wedding location. It's probably about 3 pm here.  Still 2 hours to go, no real bridesmaidly responsibilities yet, except picking on the groom across the hall.

Still not wedding time, but we've been allowed to get dressed at this point. All roommates are crammed into the bathroom of the bridal suite, drinking the bottle of champagne sent over by the best man. Thanks buddy! 

I would like to say we did not drink and giggle all day long but that would be a lie. 

Rob arrived before the wedding to make sure the cutest little flower girl made it to the show. So cute! (note: no curls whatsoever)

This is after the ceremony and after Amy woke up from her little nap that prevented her from walking up the aisle.

beginning reception nap #2. Daddy didn't mind one bit.

Back at the house for the after party. Guess it's time for bed!
