We had the rehearsal at the church at 4:15. Michael was running a little behind, because he accidentally put his bag of clothes in storage. That's what happens when you decide to get married & move out of your apartment in the same weekend!! We also had a little problem with the lights - the key didn't work to get into the room with all of the light switches. So, we went through the details of the ceremony with limited light. Then once we started to do a walk through someone was able to come and get the door open, so we could have some light.
Then we all headed to Anjon's, an italian restaurant on route one in Scarborough. We enjoyed some delicious food, heard a few speeches and wonderful stories. Then Mike and I thanked everyone for their help and support (the speech of course was very brief). Then we gave out some gifts, took a few photos and then headed to the Best Western for some poker and snacks. The girls and I packed up some stuff for the night and stopped by the hotel briefly. Then we drove to Yarmouth to Katie's moms house to get some much needed rest! Surprisingly I was able to sleep better than the night before.
Then the next morning Kim (Katie's mom) had tons of food ready for breakfast. She made the most delicious bacon & egg sandwiches! YUM. Then we packed the car up and headed to the Wyndham to decorate for the reception. Fortunately, Ashlea remembered the daisies we needed for the centerpieces were still sitting in the windowsill at Kim's. We ALMOST forgot them!
The rest of the crew met us there to get all of the decorations and favors in place for the reception. It was the bridesmaids, Gram, Mom, Dad, and Aunt Laura. Thanks for all of your help everyone, it looked beautiful!
