Married Bliss, Part 3: Party Time!

Okay, so let me first apologize ... The reception pictures really should have been split up into two separate posts, but I didn't realize that until I was about halfway through, and really didn't want to start over. Because it took forever...

So ... here is our reception! It's long - but there were too many pictures to choose from ... over 200 of just the reception itself... We like to party :)

Andy, the best man, announces our entrance :)

Mrs. And Mrs. Mark Skinner!

Our first dance - "Better Together" by Jack Johnson

I love dancing with him :)

our large audience

Then I got to dance with Daddy

And then it was time to cut the cakes! They came all the way from Birmingham, from the bakery that I worked at senior year. Best. Cake. On. Earth.

Feeding hubby the wedding cake...

Kiss!

And the Groom's cake! Wedding cake was layered almond and strawberry cake, with vanilla buttercream icing (I don't like fondant, even though it's pretty), and the groom's cake was caramel cake with caramel icing. There was NONE of that one left. At ALL.

Yummy!

Love :)

So then it was time to eat and be merry! (No alcohol at my reception...)

Thomas and the friend he brought to keep him company
