Sorry I’ve been a little absent the last week or so, but I’ve been a very busy bee. On Sunday, my big sister became a Mrs. Despite early forecasts of thunderstorms and cold weather, we ended up with a beautiful, but blazing hot day in the Chicago suburbs. In the coming days I’ll fill you in on some of the details of my sister’s big day, but for now, I’ll leave you with some pictures taken by my FMIL, me, and other random people who picked up our cameras throughout the night. I ended up with some 250 pictures from the day, so believe me, there are more to come!
One of my favorites from the day: My dad with my little sister and I. I loved the guys’ get-up, especially after they added the bright pink rose as a boutonniere!
The newlyweds! I’ve never seen my sister smile so much in my life!
My sister and I up at the head table.
My parents looking all snazzy.
Mr. Chickadee and I…we’re next!
Haley, one of the flower girls. She and the other FG, Amaya, were absolutely darling all day long.
And finally…one of my favorites from the night:
Mr. Chickadee catching the garter. Ok, so it doesn’t appear that anyone else actually wanted to catch it, but I was still proud of him!
awww - it looked like such fun! Hope to see some more pics and any other tips you might have picked up along the day 
Oh, and where did your sister find your BM dresses - they look great!

It must be so exciting to have your sister and then you taking the big plunge! Love the color of your dress….

Hi Miss Chickadee, can you tell me where your mom bought her dress? It looks a _lot_ like one that my stepmom wanted to buy. Any extra pictures you have of the dress that you could send my way would be mucho appreciated. Thanks! 
Aww, congrats to your sister! And you look SO pretty!!!
Miss Chickadee, the dress your mom wore…. My mom wore that same dress to my wedding! (I was just married Sept. 22nd). Just had to say… beautiful dress, no? I see TriciaJ asked about where she got it - my mom got hers at Bon Ton. TriciaJ - I have lots of pics of her in the dress, if you’d like me to email them to you… (my email is sarahernest (at) hotmail (dot) com). Oh, and Miss Chickadee, both you and your sister look smashing!!
