All posts for the day January 31st, 2010
People usually want to see the detail of the dress, so here it is. Like I said… the dress was lovely. It was made by a Portland designer. Her shop in on 23rd and we all would recommend her highly. It was the perfect dress for Mary. She looked beautiful in it.
It wasn’t that tough getting Mary into her dress. It took a few people, but that was only because there were zips and ties and such which all were sort of going at the same time. Pretty fast though. Her dress was very classy. Loved/love it.
This photo obviously doesn’t do the dress justice. I love this shot though… Mary’s dress with Karen in the mirror behind.
There was a flurry of activity, as you would imagine, that day. Girls getting ready, but not really having to rush, which was nice. The boys arrived some time after the girls did, after having gone to breakfast and gotten ready themselves. They finished getting the coach house ready for the ceremony, which was great of them. It was beautiful by the time we went downstairs.
At this point we are, the girls that is, all at the Glessner House. This is the room they provided for the girls to get ready. It was perfect actually. Great size, loads of room, good light, mirrors, and private. You can see Mary putting a little makeup on Karen back in the corner. So cute.
One of a million pieces that go into getting married.
I said I would blog about the wedding and here we go….
The morning of we had all the bridesmaids, the bride, Karen and I, and Jay all in our condo. It was a full house, but totally fun. Jay wandered to get bagels (which to that point had been Martin’s job every other day or so) and as the girls got their dresses and bridesmaid accoutrement together we all managed to fit in a tad bite of breakfast… and coffee.
