The Munro Wedding

Alright, so it's happened. We're finally married. The day went well. In the end Mike only had to work until 9:30am, and was at my mum's before noon. I had my hair done and Meghan did my makeup. I felt beautiful. I think Mike was blown away, even though he didn't say that much. I loved the dress. I was rather worried, since the weather that morning wasn't that great, infact it was HORRIBLE! By 4pm the sun came out, and it was hot and perfect. Ferguson Point was gorgeous, and we were able to do it at the top of the hill with the ocean and West Vancouver behind us. The ceremony was over quite quickly. I couldn't keep a straight face, because Heather was screaming the whole time, and throwing her duck at Jordan's legs. I couldn't stop laughing. Also there were planes flying over head. After the ceremony we did pictures for an hour which Mike got in a huff about and almost flew off the handle. Anyway after an hour of picture taking we headed for dinner. Dinner was amazing! Absolutely delicious. The cake my aunt made was delicious too. After everything was over, Mike and I headed back to our place (Moo went to Grandma's) and watched an hour of tv and fell asleep.

Reception #1- The Shermans

That morning we headed to my mum's place and helped set up the tables and decorations. I was so excited to see my aunt and uncle whom I haven't seen in a very long time, and my cousin, who I absolutely love to bits. We grabbed some lunch, and fell asleep for a little bit. The funny thing is that I had to sleep with my face in the pillow because I couldn't ruin my hair. I had the crappiest sleep of my life. Haha. However, my hair still looked beautiful. I did my own make up and Mike helped me into my dress. It was nice to see everyone, and the dinner at the reception was good. I believe my mum made most of it, and my cousin, Janet, made a lot of it too. My brother, Michael, and Mike made some beautiful speaches. I almost started to cry. After it was over Heather, Mike and I headed home. We had a long sleep.

Reception #2 - The Munros

There were about 115 people at this reception. A lot of the friends we had invited didn't come, some had good reasons others didn't even call to let us know. I didn't wear my wedding dress, but I didn't wear my corset with another dress. Bad idea! I ended up changing my outfit half way through the party because I was soo uncomfortable. It was catered, but the food was soo good. I think I gained about 10 lbs this weekend easily. We mingled and took pictures. I looked after Heather quite a bit. Barbara said a little speach, and so did, Mal, Meredith and my dad. It was a beautiful reception, except for the rain. The music was lovely too. By the end of it I was so tired that I almost started crying.

So Monday we all had had enough. I had two naps, and Heather was quite upset most of the day. All in all, the weekend was great. I hope I never have to do it again!
