our reception was held at clunie community center. we rented the hall for $30 an hour, but provided everything ourselves. the hall did come with chairs and tables, but we only used their rectangular tables for a few things and rented our round tables and chairs...and everything else.

i'm going to divide these up into three posts: getting ready + ceremony, formal shots, and reception. i don't want to overload you guys. i actually have a whole 276 uploaded into my gallery if you want to look there (just click any picture to get there). my landlord has been at my house since 11am (it's 7:30 now) putting in a dishwasher, and i'm sick, so i've had some time on my hands...

i got married at pioneer congregational church.

( and it was absolutely beautiful )

i am married!!!! our ceremony was at 4pm on saturday, so i have been a mrs. for over 24 hours now. we stayed at a hotel on saturday, and are home tonight before leaving tomorrow for the honeymoon (san diego!), so my internet addiction got the best of me, so here's a small update.

I found a cute flower girl dress for Ariana. It matches my dress fairly well, and is only $40 (not that I'm paying for it, but I figure Jason and Amy don't want to drop $100+ for a bridal shop or designer flower girl dress).

I think if it just had some ribbon added to it to match the bridesmaids, it'd be better than the plain white. I want Ariana's hair pulled up in a ponytail with spiral curls, and a headpiece around it (like one of the ones pictured below).

today i bought some rsvp/reception cards.

Today my mom and I went down to the reception hall, which is a community center (CHEAP!) to figure out how the tables are going to fit. The hall can provide me with tables and chairs, but they are really small rectangular tables and ugly brown chairs, and I really want round tables, and white chairs, so I'm spending the extra money to rent those items. We are pretty much doing everything for the reception ourselves, including the food.
