Congratulations Jenn and Nick!

It's official, Jenn and Nick have tied the knot! After a day of pampering with the girls, Jenn said "I do" to Nick last night at Sharp Chapel. The ceremony was beautiful and everything went off with a hitch. The only downfall to the day was the weather. It rained off and on throughout the entire day, but that didn't stop us all from having fun. (Thankfully it never rained when we were moving from location to location.) Here are some pictures from the day's preparations and the ceremony. 

We started the day at Fiagro's Salon (81st and Lewis), where Larry did all of our hair. We all looked like lions at first. No worries...our hair ended up looking beautiful in the end.

Then, it was off to Bobbi Brown for our makeup.

The unique programs. 


















Once Jenn and Nick were announced as husband and wife, it was off to the reception. The reception took place at Clary Fields Golf Course and it was truly amazing. The only thing you could say when you walked into the event center was "Wow!" I've never seen a reception before that has intertwined the bride and groom's heritages together so well. It was a direct representation of Jenn and Nick. Here are some pictures of the evening. 

The amazing centerpieces.

The band, Electric Avenue. They play cover songs and sounded great. I just wish I had another big party to plan because I would definitely hire them!














The escort cards. How cute!














Nick's "groom cake"... Key-lime pie shooters.

Lindsay caught the bouquet!! Let's hope she will be planning her wedding very soon :).

Another great thing about the wedding was the food! It was probably the best food that Andrew and I have even eaten at a reception. Chicken and beef fajitas with all of the fixin's, plus rice and chips, salsa, queso, guac etc. were served to the guest. It was all delicious. (Thanks Jenn for ordering chicken.) From now on, I think mexican food should be mandatory at all weddings. :). 

Here are some pictures of us having fun.

The evening was a blast. It was filled with great food, friends, music and fun! We all were honored to be apart of Jenn and Nick's big day. Congratulations to Nick and Jenn! We love you guys. 

Here's to love, laughter and a happily ever after!
