After realizing we had no money for drinks at McDonalds, (read my last recap if you aren’t sure what I’m talking about) we decided to go ahead and drive to the reception. The majority of our guests were there already, so we just waited for a few minutes near the entrance for everyone to get drinks and for our bridal party members to arrive.
After everyone was there, we got lined up and ‘I’ve Got a Feeling’ by Black Eyed Peas started. Cliche? Yes. Perfect for us? Also yes. We love that song and sang it to each other all the time. Unfortunately, I have a total of ONE picture of our grand entrance even though we had two photographers there. I’m really not sure how that happens, but here it is!
I don’t think my smile could get any bigger. I just couldn’t contain my happiness when we entered the room and I saw that everything I worked so hard on had come together and everyone (almost) we love was gathered together to support US joining as husband and wife.

We headed to the head table to find our seats and get a drink! I was still dying of thirst, and you can see me chugging my cup of tea in the second picture – ha!
