and then there were two... Stephanie Mygrants that is!

It's official! Cody and Stephanie are married so I now have a sister (in-law) and there are two Stephanie Mygrants! It's been a whirlwind weekend but everything went perfect!

Friday: we hosted the rehearsal dinner at our house and had a "luau" theme since we were by the pool and they're at the beach for their honeymoon! I had so many little detail ideas to decorate for the dinner but the closer it got, the hotter it was outside leaving me no desire to add unnecessary touches. So, we all went to the church and practiced for the next day then back to our house. We added ice to the pool and ate bbq and played water volleyball till 11 or so!




Also, I had made wire hangers for all of the girls (me, Stephanie, Doris, Sandy, Brandi, Rachel, Staci, and Gigi) earlier in the summer. I made Stephanie's say "Mrs. Mygrant". We all hung our dresses on the hangers before we got ready. They weren't very hard to make and I think they turned out great!



Saturday: the bridal party and moms headed to a house at the lake for a bridal brunch hosted by some women at the church. Right after that we headed to the View to get hair and makeup done! and after that we were off to the church to get ready! Four O'clock came fast! The ceremony was beautiful and there was  a great turnout. Sadly, not everyone at the ceremony went to the reception so we didn't even get to see who all was there because we were busy taking pictures. We headed to the reception and had a blast until 8:30. It was great to see everyone and have a chance to mingle. Stephanie threw the bouquet and it grazed by hand so I claimed it :) (I may have a vertical advantage!). Cody and Stephanie were taken back to the house to change and get into Cody's car and off they went!



Today has been so relaxing now that everything is done! We swam all day and hung out, and the Jessens came over too and everyone feels at ease now!
