So Tanya's wedding went over very well yesterday! All of the ladies wore flipflops (Tanya included). It was a great ceremony! By the end of it... Tanya walked over to me and said, "You wait til it's your turn... Pay back...." Teehee!
Wanna hear? Of course you do! So, we're all ready to line up and Tanya looks out the window towards Jake walking around, and says, "Is that JAKE wearing FLIP FLOPS???" She wasn't mad...but she was like, "oh great..." And so I'm (being the maid of honor) walking out there before her and I get to see the groomsmen and Jake and Bill (the preacher) and they are all wearing the same black flip flops. Totally not my idea! I liked the best man, Randy; he was awesome. We made a ton of jokes and had fun. So then I take my place, then the flower girls come out, and then right before the presentation of the bride, Randy says, "Before the bride gets here and she makes it get any brighter, let's put on our sunglasses..." The boys pulled out their sunglasses and I laughed so hard! So then her dad gives her away (and we were all worried that he wouldn't remember his line... haha)
After the vow was the "Tissue" gig. I was supposed to PRETEND to cry. Well, that didn't work... I WAS crying. So I looked to Amanda, she shook her head, she looked to Lindsay, then to Keri, then to Heather. Heather pulled out a tissue from her bra and dabbed her eyes, then gave it to Keri, she dabbed her eyes and so on... it got to me, and I dabbed my eyes then I didn't know where to put it so I gave it back to Amanda, then to Lindsay, then to Keri, then to Heather and she just put it back in her bra. Oh classic....
Then, the "you may now kiss the bride part". I pulled Tanya to me and gave her some lip gloss while Randy sprayed some "mouth freshener" (aka sour candy spray hehe) in his mouth :) If that wasn't funny enough... it was a japanese themed wedding (cause they met in Japan), so we got black and red fans and covered the bride and groom's kiss with the fans, while the boys went behind the bride and groom and took a picture with a camera and rooted them on. It was FUNNY.
Overall, good wedding. I cried alot. The girls cried alot. Got some great professional pictures... and I caught the bouquet too! Good day... did I mention I cried alot? Yeah, I did... I had the most massive headache afterwards from it too!!!! I didn't have very many complete thoughts after yesterday. I went to hang out with some friends from church that were at the wedding and I was trying to explain the rules to a game and couldn't... I'm really glad Ben knew how to play. Anyways, got home at about 2am yesterday after a long day, went to church this morning and then i'm putting in 10 hrs today at work... Long weekend, wouldn't you say?
