my best friend's wedding (real life edition)

Alyssa is married, Alyssa is married!! Oh to remember all the times we had talked about her wedding, and I was lucky enough to actually experience the real deal!!!!! It was a beautiful day, and a great trip (shared with my other best friend Addison.) The 3 of us (along with our other friend Jessi, who is now also married) met while working at Disney World in Florida, and it has just been magical (no pun intended) ever since!! We started the trip with a little visit to the nail salon on Monday, the day before the wedding. I of course didn't get my nails done, because well, I don't really like nail polish on my hands, and, lets face it, my feet rarely see anyone but the shower floor! The beautiful bride-to-be, did get all gussied up though:)
 Next we headed back to the hotel for a little dinnsy, and girl time.....you can imagine how that went with us goofy girls! Josh did stop in though to visit Alyssa, and drop off her dress, they are just too cute!
Addison, Sweet D (alyssa's mom), me, and the bride!!




Here I am, being a good friend, carrying in the slip to make alyssa's dress poof!
The next morning was game day! We all went to the temple around 10:30. Addy and I were the certified babysitters in the waiting room. Apparently everything went beautifully! We then all gathered outside for the appearance of Mr. and Mrs. Spencer!!! YAY!
You may kiss the bride!
Between the wedding and the reception there was a light luncheon that Alyssa and Josh joined us all for. It was so fun getting to hang out with them and just relax. They seemed so happy! Th reception was later that night, it was BEAUTIFUL. Candle lit, dimmed lighting, a fireplace, great food, great cake, cute centerpieces, a dance floor, definitely my kind of reception! I also caught my 3rd bouquet in a row....CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT, THIRD?!? I'm officially dropping out of all bouquet tosses from now on, I mean, the other girls just can't seem to compete!!

All in all it was a beautiful week spent with great friends and fun! I loved getting to spend 4 days strait with my friend Addison, she is just a gem! Best of wishes to Alyssa and Josh, We love you guys!
