My cousin Amanda honored me and my daughters by asking us to be in her wedding. I was matron of honor and Marley and Ella were flower girls. We had a wonderful time and would love to share our photos.
Our day started by meeting all the girls in the wedding party at
9 a.m. at the hair saloon.
Ella kept herself busy by listening to her MP3 player and making faces at people sitting under the dryers.
Finally, at 10:20 a.m. it was time for Marley and Ella to get into the chairs.
Now it is 11:20 and here is Marley's head complete with rose bud clips. She really wanted to have the flowers in her hair. She looked so grown-up.

We rushed off to get dressed. Here is Ella helping Amanda put on her shoes. It may not look like a very interesting picture, but this was a special moment in the day. One of Ella's first words when she was a baby was "shoes." Amanda always loved the way she said it and often will remind Ella of her first word. The day of the wedding, seeing Amanda almost fully dressed, Ella spontaneously went and got Amanda's shoes. She then bent down and started trying to help Amanda put them on. It was so cute to see Ella and Amanda in this moment since they share a bond over "shoooooeessss!"
There were four flower girls for this wedding. From left to right: Alissa & Regina (nieces of the groom) Marley (cousin of the bride) and Ella (god-daughter of the bride). They each carried miniature replicas of the brides bouquet.

Big moss covered "W" for Walton; Amanda's new last name. There were two of these hanging on the doors as you entered the church.
My favorite shot of the day!This is the reflection in the limo window of the bride and groom as they were leaving the church.
I got this shot and the photographer didn't.
Here is the shot the photographer was concentrating on at the moment.Mr. and Mrs. Nate Walton.

The bride could not resist this photo opt. A patron of the bar at the reception site offered to let the newlyweds use his bike for this picture. 
Father of the bride dances with his daughter.
This daddy watches the father/daughter dance and holds his little girl extra tight.
Ella's dance card was full all night. Here she is taking a twirl with cousin Justin.
Cousin Jason can't resist a hug from the bride.

I predict another family wedding in the near future.
