More Wedding Prep

Four Elam family siblings (center) and two in-laws (outside) were able to be together for this wedding - this is Mom Mary's siblings. She is pictured here with her three older brothers. In fact the 5th sibling (sister) was also in town for the wedding but not around for this photo.

On Friday, the day of the rehearsal and set-up work day, the bride and bridesmaids took a break to have coffee and get manicures. What fun! There were 8 bridesmaids, 4 family (3 cousins and 1 sister in-law, that's me) and 4 long-time friends. Here is Katie with 6 of her bridesmaids: me, Rebecca, Jess, Katie, Sarah, Melanie and Kathy.


After the Rehearsal Dinner, the women of the bridal party went out to a 'chocolate cafe' for hot chocolate. To help calm the nerves? It was a lovely time. Melanie (matron of honour) made sure Katie looked particularly cute, which amused us (that's Jess next to Katie).

The following morning, the day of the wedding, Tiffany did Katie's make-up.

Meanwhile downstairs in the kitchen the two brothers took care of the twins. Avery, what are you trying to tell your Dad?
