After we safely made it across the street, both of our parties were ready for their close up. We women {and Eric} outside, the men {and Somsom and SIL} inside the Cathedral of Learning made it happen all over some digital photography.
Well hi there, handsome and co.

Recent Wedding Recap in Our Living Room
Me: So, the day of the wedding you got ready in ten minutes?
MB: Yeah.
Me: So, you guys were just like ummm OK let’s go to the Cathedral now?
MB: Well, yes, but I was super nervous — I was excited to see you. It was such a big day. I was so excited. I love you so much clearly, but I really didn’t want to be a crying mess.
CUE AWWWW!
Off the boys went. Into the elevator…

While the men were downstairs getting ready to head out, I was upstairs putting the finishing touches on my bridal awesomeness.

MOH Getting Married: Maids + Men Suit Up
After getting our hair done and putting on our make up, we whisked the bride back to her childhood home so that we could get ready and wait for the big moment. The dress!!
MOH and her gma always joked that she would carry brocoli down the aisle since as a child she liked it so much. I got her some just in case.
How Sweet It Is: 10 Minutes

While we women of the wedding waited with bated breath for my dress to be laced and the veil to be placed, the men of our wedding took a whopping 10 minutes (!!) to congregate, dress and get themselves ready for their close up, which John was on hand to capture.
10 MINUTES!
remember that tie?
MOH Getting Married: Pretty!
Saturday morning came EARLY. I could not believe that the big day for MOH +J was finally here! After checking my bags 3 times to make sure I had it all, I set out into the 6 am darkness of Jtown for sustenance for a hungry maid team and bride.
The weather was not cooperating. I gave the clouds a stern talking to, like I’m famous for, but the clouds won. Jan warned me, as I was driving the bride to all pre-wedding prep stops “BE VERY VERY CAREFUL!” Pishaw Jan! We’re good!
How Sweet It Is: There’s a Bride in This Room

One of my favorite songs from late college/law school was Joe Budden’s ubiquitous “Fire” with the classic lyrics “…there’s some hos in this house…” and other rhyming non appropriate things.
Randomly this song was stuck in my head for about 10 minutes before our beautiful photographer, Kim, pranced into our bridal suite to a chorus of screams, squeals and cheers and hugs from pretty much everyone.
I think my version of Joe’s song went something more like, there’s a bride in this room, as I knew, as soon as I heard that knock, it was time.
Their Wedding: The Maid’s Attire
You’ll be getting bits and pieces of the their wedding as it comes together. But a maid’s dress was chosen.
So pretty right?
