Crumley-Reznicek Wedding!

Yesterday we spent the afternoon and evening with Rebecca and Nathan. Our day started meeting the bride and groom at The Grand Chapel downtown while they prepared with their bridal party. Rebecca wore a sleek, white strapless gown with beads lightly embelishing the top edge of the bodice and bead work to the waist and pulled to the left side. A modest train finished the look. Rebecca's hair was awesome. Her sister is a stylist and styled it for her, pulled up with tons of curls (they started at 7 am!) She chose not to wear a veil but no one hardly even noticed she looked so great. The flower girls hair were also done by her sister with a green ribbon woven throughout the curls- very cool! The bridesmaids wore all black and the groomsmen were in traditional black tuxes. The flowers were all a very natural look with daises, lillies and roses in white and shades of green. The chapel decorations matched perfectly.
The bride and groom chose to see each other prior to the ceremony so they could get all their pictures taken to save time for the party afterwards. Their photographers were quite fun and great to work with, Brian and Darrin from JDB Photography. Nathan had the biggest smile on his face when seeing Rebecca for the first time!
The cermony started promptly at 7 pm after photos and was very nice. The bride and groom exchanged not only traditional vows, but very personal covenants to each other. Nathan surprised everyone with a little more humor in his than expected :) They exchanged rings, lit the unity candle and presented their parents with roses while Nathan's sister played the flute, accompanied by piano.
The newlyweds exited the chapel and returned only for a brief time for photos with grandparents and then made their way downstairs to the reception hall for a light buffet and the party! When it came time to cut the cake Nathan knew what would happen and surrendered himself to it and took it like a good sport, all over his shaved head! We think he was wearing more of the cake than he got to eat!
The traditional dances started the evening and their family and friends danced into the night until the party ended around 11 pm.
Nathan and Rebecca, thank you so much for having us yesterday, we really enjoyed ourselves and getting to know you two better, we hope you have a great getaway to Texas and especially your trip at the first of the year, it will be here before you know it. We enjoyed being with your family as well, it was fun to see some familiar faces!

Dad and I just watched the prequel. In all of the rush and excitement of the day I think we forgot to stop and realize the beauty in all of it. It finally hit us. Nathan looks so happy and Becca looks absolutely stunning. From the very first chord of the very first frame the tears finally began flowing. What a incredibly happy day and what a fantastic prequel. Thanks to everyone who came to share this with Nathan and Becca and our families. Love was definitely in the air that evening.
Nathan you are wonderful handsome son who made a great choice in Becca. Becca welcome to our family. Thank you Fat Cats for a beautiful video.
