Before I knew it, the day had flown by and it was time to make our departure. The boys handed out my little DIY send off flags, and Mr. Lion and I headed towards the exit.

Remember how the groomsmen decorated my car? Obviously, I was a little concerned when I saw all those balloons!

Fortunately, someone had given Mr. Lion a hint and he somehow ended up with two safety pins. We went to town on the balloons (which I hated and he loved), and made it into our getaway car.

We were just about to take off, when I yelled out the window, “Wait! I want to say bye to my mom.” The sea of guests parted, and she raced through to give me one more hug.

Our touching moment was short-lived, as I looked up and noticed a surprise waiting for me on the windshield.

How thoughtful! The groomsmen made sure I’d feel like a princess all the way to our hotel!

Our wedding day was over, and we were ready to embark upon our new life together.

I love this last one. Everyone is cheering, Sister Lioness is crying, and Mr. Lion is fist pumping victoriously.

The Lioness wedding journey has almost reached its end, but I still have one more fun thing to share with y’all. Stay tuned!
