the weddings

All of my friends are getting married. This may seem like a drastic statement, but it's not. Out of eight of my closest friends from high school, 3 are now married and 1 is getting married July 30th next summer. Two have serious-ish boyfriends, and then there are the lonely two (Suz and I) who are truly enjoying our early 20's as singles.

On June 26th, Lauren and Grant got married. They've been dating for...forever. Since freshman/sophomore year of HS! They are the definition of high school sweethearts. They're wedding was so amazing; they rode off on a motorcycle. Yes, Lauren jumped onto the back of a motorcycle in 5-6inch heels and her wedding dress. She's great.

The rest of the night was the definition of a wedding party. The open bar had a lot to do with this. I won't go into the graphic details of the night, but I'll give you a highlight list: salmoning, Gough, rumors, cupcakes, and lots of crazy dancing. The best part of the night was definitely surrounding Lauren and doing our "Just a Little Bit" dance from high school. Here's the picture that stemmed from the dance:

Deborah and Aaron's wedding was just as fun, but in a different way. They are such a young Godly couple and their wedding reflected their relationship together and with God perfectly. It was amazing to watch Deborah marry the man that she is truly meant to be with, and knowing that they are starting out on a journey together that is obviously going to honor God in all the ways he intended. Needless to say, I cried a lot at their wedding. Then my eyes started to burn as my makeup poured into my eyes, which led to even more crying.

I don't have a good picture of Deb and Aaron, but here's one of the bests. Its so romantic!

I wish all my married friends the happiest, life-long marriages that they deserve. I wish you all the best and am so happy for you =)
