dream wedding

so... as you probably guessed, the show totally changed everything about sara's wedding this past weekend. it was all a huge surprise to her, up until the moment that she walked down the aisle. there was a slight rain delay... as in a three hour delay, but most of the guests ended up waiting. while we were waiting at the original wedding location, they told us about how sara had met badgley and mischka while choosing her dress (which i can't find anywhere on b&m's website. it looked a lot like her original dress, but with a ton of bling on it). we also found out that the location had changed (which explained the lack of decor at the original location) and that it was going to be at this cool, old house down the road. some family friends were also waiting with us and told me about all the work that they had been doing all week to get the wedding location ready... painting park benches, etc. the ceremony location looked amazing and the flowers were to die for! the driveway was lined with white street lamps, white park benches and white pedestals holding gorgeous pink topiaries surrounded by candles. the reception was held behind the house in a gigantic white tent. you had to walk through a tented hallway to get there and you would never know that you were in a tent. there was a "waterfall" of pink umbrellas in the center of the tent that fell into a pool of pink rose petals. there were several different floral centerpieces on the tables and i tried my best to figure out how to take one home, but they were all to big to hide under my dress =) the food was delish and i wish i could do a better job remembering and describing it. crab cakes, shrimp and grits, corn bisque with truffles, etc. hmm... after we all started eating, they announced that emily west was going to sing the song for sara & bryan's first dance. she has an amazing voice, by the way. there was all kinds of stuff going on for filming that i'm sure sara will fill everyone in on. she will definitely do a better job describing everything as well. i wish i had pictures to share, but i kid you not, LH and i are both missing our battery chargers for our cameras. i ended up borrowing my mom's camera and then gave it back before downloading the pictures because they all turned out pretty fuzzy anyhow. so that's it for now... you'll just have to wait for sara to return from her honeymoon to get the rest of the story!
