My Little Sister's Wedding!

My youngest sister, now Elizabeth Gray got married Sunday May 4th.  She had a beautiful colorful wedding at a manor house in northern Virginia.  Elizabeth is a talented hair stylist and all her friends were involved to make everything and everyone beautiful.

Here is her family's arrival to the reception!

Dorathea was blessed to be asked to be a flower girl with Elizabeth's little girl Violet.  Violet followed her around all weekend.  Here's D the day before trying on her dress with Violet;


 Cousins who don't get to see each other often got to enjoy lots of time together.  This is Jonathan and Ronan (aka the ring bearer)

 S gift of crowns from my aunt Melissa!
 Cousins being silly.


 On the big day after hours of hair and makeup (and the big flower girl spinning the little one around in a barberchair
we arrive for the wedding.  
Here is the second floor balcony,

 My little girl has been having trouble with heights lately, crying when on second floors or going down stairs.  Evangeline's boyfriend Phillip gently talked her out onto the balcony and helped cure her fear.  Thanks Phillip!
 Brave girl!
With Phillip and Violet enjoying the view and trying to get guest's attention.

I accidently left my camera in the ladies changing room so I missed taking the wedding video of walking down the isle :(
Here is the reception my Aunt Melissa, my Grandmother who celebrated her 90th birthday this year, and my  mom. Doesn't looking way younger than you are run in my family?
My beautiful mom.
First dance.  Violet cut in halfway through and it was a tear wrenching dance of this family of three.
Then their was a lot of cousins chasing and laughing on the lawn.  
Catching violet.
Violet was a happy girl all day!


Me and my handsome boy after he showed off his moves on the dance floor.  At times it looked like he was breakdancing.  Who taught him to breakdance?
My Dad dancing with the bride.  I could tell he was trying to hold the tears back.

We all were holding back tears. My sister is just so beautiful.  Happy Wedding Day Sister!
