My brother, Jeff, married Reagan on Saturday May 10, 2008. They couldn't have picked a more beautiful day; it was sunny yet high 60's/low 70's...no humidity...perfect!Here is a recap of the day:
Reagan and all us bridesmaids met at 10:30 AM to get our hair done. It is always so much fun to have your hair done before a big event, and especially fun to do it with those you will be with!
BEAUTIFUL!!!
Sophie got her hair done, too.
The Wedding began at 3:30--boy, that time got her quickly! The service was absolutely beautiful, yet simple. Not frilly, yet elegant. It was perfect. It was so 'Reagan' and I loved it because of that. It was also extremely moving and emotional with my mother having died so recently. We all felt her absence. She would have loved everything about it. Partially because she was so happy and excited about them getting married and partially because Reagan and my mom are a lot alike and she would have loved the ceremony. I think that is what drew Jeff to Reagan from the beginning--that she is so similar to my mom in so many ways. While my mom wasn't their physically she was definitely there in spirit. Reagan's niece, Kylie, and Reagan and Jeff's daughter, Mindy, were flower girls. Shane, our nephew, was the ring bearer.
Maid of honor, Dana, and sweet Mindy Moo:

Brian, my brother, was the best man and Amanda, Reagan's sister was the matron of honor. Both of them had very sweet, memorable yet also hysterically funny speeches at the reception!
People traveled near and far. We were blessed and surprised by these attendees:
Bobby drove up from Florida 
Tracy flew in from Texas
Dad and Dee flew in from California.
