The Biggest Party We've Ever Thrown

This was a celebration of the union of Adam and McKenna.
The radiant bride preparing for the big day.

The results of all that primping. Isn't she lovely?
The delightful bridesmaids, Krista, Tiffany, Maria, and Rachel.

McKenna's Maid of Honor, Miss Krista Smith
She reminds me of Audrey Hepburn. How about you?
The bride and her Matron of Honor.
Brinlee and McKenna
Sisters by chance, friends by choice.

A hug for the bride before she goes out to meet Adam for the ring ceremony.
Ray walking her to Adam. He's watching his feet to make sure he doesn't step on her dress. As always, watching out for her.

Adam's dad, Mark, had to stand in at the last minute for the bishop and conduct the ring ceremony. I think we took 10 years off his life but he did an excellent job. McKenna and Adam pledged their love and faithfulness to each other during the ring ceremony. It was beautiful.

Another picture of the bridesmaids. Such attractive ladies!

And with the bride. What fun to have these lovely girls together!

And the groom with his groomsmen. The twins, McKay and Spencer, Devon, Adam, Dan, and the party crasher. Haha!

Dancing......

The Dad and daughter dancing to "Down the Road"

Adam and his mom...a handsome couple.

THE handsome couple and their first dance as man and wife.

Throwing the bouquet

Catching the bouquet
Unfortunately I missed this as I was on the phone trying to straighten out the reservation for the honeymoon night. I don't recommend dealing with the Eden's Keep people since they only have the one room and if a mistake is made there is nothing they can do to make it right.
Thank goodnesss for pictures.

FOOD, FLOWERS, FRIENDS, FAMILY, AND FUN!!

Adam and McKenna with her cousin, Amanda and her husband, Monroe

Unc saying "hi" to Brin and Kimber. Aunt Kathy giving Kenna a gift she made, a really wonderful photo album with their names and wedding date cross-stitched on it.

Amber, Sh'Kell, and Kelly and Uncle Scotty sitting. When McKenna saw this picture she says, "I can't believe Mikki got a picture of Kelly with a real smile on his face!!?" You'd have thought he never smiles.

Brinlee and Kyle enjoying a dance

Aunt Kathy and Ilene catching up on the whats, whos, whens, and wheres.

Rachelle and Shane. I love the naturalness of this picture. They truly are a happy couple.

My kids' second dad, Kerry Smith, and Alex, son of his oldest daughter, Kerrah. I was so glad that she was able to come to the reception as she lives in the north country.

Kerrah and Alex coolin' their heels in the pool.

Meemee (Joyce) kicking back and enjoying the evening. I think she and Aunt Jerry holed up inside during the hot part of this party.

Adam, McKenna, Holly, and Micah.

McKenna and friends, Krista, Bree, and Sariah.

Cutting the cake


The getaway car, Adam's mini! He worked hard to get it ready to play its part in the whole wedding scenario. Brinlee decorated the beast, with only one addition from the guys. She wouldn't let them even touch the marker for the windows. Haha! She's no dummy and this wasn't her first wedding reception. She knows what those guys are capable of and was having none of it.






And off they go to their own grand adventure in marriage.
