Beautiful wedding

We had a very busy weekend getting prepared for Danin and Eric's big day. To start everything off we headed to Tatum Friday morning for Danin's bridal luncheon. It was so perfect for her. We each wrote a letter to Danin (without her knowing) and read it to her while sitting around the table together. The tears FINALLY fell! We ate lunch and visited for a couple of hours then headed back to Longview. Mom needed my help carrying some things to the Summit II club where the reception was to take place. After that I headed to the gym to catch about an hour of the vball scrimmage and then it was time to get ready for the rehearsal/dinner! The rehearsal went very smoothly and the dinner was sooooooo yummy!
That next morning all the bridesmaids and Danin came over to my house to get their hair ready. My sweet friend Brittany and Leslie came over to help get us beautiful! My Aunt Connie and Uncle Ed also dropped by to bring us food and champagne! Once we were all ready, Leven and Peyton's hubby dropped us off at the church. It was time to get dressed and start taking tons of pictures! And that we did!
6:30 finally arrived and it was time to get the wedding started. Everyone looked so pretty and the kiddos all did exactly what they were suppose to! I was so proud of them. Danin CRIED all the way down the aisle. She couldn't get it together. So of course the whole audience was reaching for a tissue. Dustin and I made it through our song and I thought we sounded pretty good! My sister was thrilled after Dr. Stone announced "Mr. and Mrs. Turner!" Such a perfect wedding for them two.

The reception was so fun! I love weddings and having a huge reunion with all our family and friends. My maid of honor speech went well too. I had everyone crying! I kept it together thank goodness so everyone could understand me. I had written Danin and poem about 4 months ago bc I knew I was going to have to give a speech. What better way then to read something. But I wanted it to be special. I hadn't told anyone about the poem except a few people. I will try and post it soon on my blog! Enjoy some of the pics! There are sooooooooo many to look at!
