Josh & Karrie...the wedding day!!

Wedding Day!!!

So the day started pretty early since there were 10 bridesmaids + one bride + one flower girl + a couple of others that had to get there hair did :) Gretchen (the hairdresser) and her partner worked their booties off from like 8am till 3:25pm (yes, 5 minutes before the ceremony started!) without a break. Karrie wanted all of us to have our hair up and most of us had a whole lot of hair...SO props to the hair dressers....ya'll did awesome :)

Holy Hair!!
The bride!!
Lookin good....
Just chillin....I would like to point out that Jenny's head totally disappeared in this picture...it's like the light absorbed it or something....funny :)
The Canadian is always hungry :)
Hair and Make-up.....check! Gorgeous!
The dress....pretty, pretty...
Hair...check. Make-up...check. Shoes...no check (except Jenny :). Must wait to last possible moment to put on the shoes of pain.
Awwww.....so beautiful!
Karrie and the pastors :)
No pics of the ceremony since we were both in the ceremony...

Attempting to take pics at the golf course where the reception was held....unbelievable scenery.

Pretty dang big wedding party, huh?

These girls were SO MUCH FUN!
SO fun to see Bri....a former soccer player at South...
Look at this view of San Fran....I know you can't see if great in this picture....but trust me, it was amazing.

OK....so for real....this was a first...when the dogs came in with their tuxes on...I was like..."WHAT IN THE WORLD???" Definitely a first for me at a wedding reception.
First Dance...
Daddy-Daughter Dance...awwwww...so sweet. Her daddy's speech made me cry for reals....
So, NICK PITERA sang at their reception. Nick actually is Kelly's roomate. If you haven't heard of him, STOP reading this blog and look him up on youtube RIGHT NOW. It is the most unbelievable thing you will ever hear. I promise. Let me just say that he sings BOTH parts in the Aladdin song. And after you listen to that one, listen to all the others. You will be blown away. Trust me.
The reception hall was SO pretty....ok, so basially everything about this entire wedding was SO pretty...seriously.
Cake time!
Way to go Karrie!
Bouquet toss...these chicas were vicious!
Way to go Desiree!
His turn....
The boys were ready....
