09.27.08 - Oh How We Danced

September 22nd, 2009 @ 12:13 pm by Mrs. Hydrangea

So now, for the post that I’ve been waiting to share throughout all of our recaps. Mr. H and I wanted, if nothing more, a huge party for our wedding. We love to go out, to hang with friends, to dance (I might not like to slow dance, but I can boogie with the best), have a few drinks, and make some memories. Our wedding did not fail us in the least.

After BIL Hydrangea and Mom H made their speeches, it was time to continue the dancing.

Below are the best pics from the night - but not nearly all of them. In the end we had well over 1000 images to choose from (not an easy feat)! I’ll let the images speak for themselves, and add a little detail here and there to explain.

One of our groomsmen with the cowbell. Everyone needs a little cowbell in their lives.

And this bridesmaid? Well, the man with the cowbell is her husband, and they are the most musical friends that we have. That trumpet? Well, they both played them in the band at our college, and that’s where their love story began. :)

Mom H even got my bro out on the floor!

Having a special moment with FIL Hydrangea. I really think this might be one of my most favorite pictures from the entire day.

Our band, Signed Sealed Delivered, rocked our socks off!

Mr. H and MIL H finally got their dance on!

And this, my friends, is a typical Mrs. H.

This amazing couple is my Great Aunt and her husband who flew in from Cali, along with a lot of the rest of their family from around the country. They are, quite possibly, the most awesome couple in the world and I cherish them as though they were my own grandparents. This picture is sweeter then any of the rest. And I’m tearing up as I write this; they are that special.

Have to share some DG love :)

There’s only one more thing to show you before we make our grand exit, so stay tuned…

Ahh! I love the lighting! Did you write a post on it? I haven’t been able to find anything. I’m just curious if the hotel offered that or if you had to hire an outside company, whether or not it was a budget buster, etc…

Looks like you had a blast - and your Great Aunt and Uncle? ADORABLE. One thing Loverboy and I agree on when it comes to our wedding is that no matter where we have our ceremony and who comes to it - we WILL have a HUGE PARTY to celebrate!
