I lo...Thanks so much for sharing all the details... I love that so many people gave speeches and had so many heartfelt things to say. And I loved to hear about the little anecdotes... I think mole Lester is my favorite :)<br /><br />I wish I had written down everything from our reception way back when (I only have a few clear memories, one is where we were given "bread and salt" as a symbol for a happy marriage and J took a bit bite of the salted bread and nearly choked ;) <br />Oh, and our reception went til 7 a.m. in the morning... we partied German style LOL).Sanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10196296268895103846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-59335458237251770042017-07-31T09:32:10.496-05:002017-07-31T09:32:10.496-05:00Aw, it sounds like such a fun night! And I love he...Aw, it sounds like such a fun night! And I love hearing about all the speeches. It sounds like everyone did really well. I love the photos of yours and your brother-in-law's reaction to Phil's speech. We had a dance and DJ because I love to dance, but at the end of the night, I also felt like I could have used a few more hours to hang out with everyone. It's a hard balance and a busy day no matter what.

Love the speeches -- that all got a chance to speak! They sound delightful! And the dance thing is a neat idea -- you got to dance a little with the two men who mattered but the rest not have to worry it. It looks gorgeous, every bit. I love how you called the desserts and the Twain poem. Oh Lisa, better than anything. So personal and so you. I love it!Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-85878658235925551412017-07-21T13:32:13.939-05:002017-07-21T13:32:13.939-05:00Oh gosh, I'm reading this blog post in public ...Oh gosh, I'm reading this blog post in public and trying to hold back from full-on sobbing (happy sobs!) This just made me so damn happy. I just can't get over what a beautiful bride you were!! Your dress is so gorgeous. <br /><br />I hate dancing, so it's my least favorite part of any wedding (plus, being single, it means a lot of dancing alone and... that never makes a girl feel good!). The speeches are probably my favorite part! I love that you had so many speeches, just speaks to the impact you and Phil have on other peoples' lives.<br /><br />Also, your nephews are so tall! Goodness gracious, they have grown up FAST.Stephanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01664500645286563334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-44133643425199601672017-07-20T13:16:10.337-05:002017-07-20T13:16:10.337-05:00Hooray!

I wanted to tell you a) I love your blog (just the right combo of reports on day to day life and book reading!) and b) I'm so happy for you getting married! Phil sounds like a perfect match for you. I also got married in my mid-thirties (two years ago) and I have to say that married life is really wonderful! Best wishes to both of you and keep up the good blogging!Another Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07499611115912596152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-46276868280632043982017-07-20T10:11:35.338-05:002017-07-20T10:11:35.338-05:00This was a wonderful post!

I always get teary eyed, even if I don't know the couple very well. I also love hearing funny stories about the couple :-)<br /><br />I'm looking forward to hearing about the book theme!!!!Jolene - EverydayFoodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11490816021651698189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-71083010963942797492017-07-19T17:45:20.546-05:002017-07-19T17:45:20.546-05:00Love everything about this!

They are one of the best parts about a wedding and I love hearing people talk about and tell stories about the couple. All of the speeches at your wedding were amazing! My favourites were your moms, Phil's moms, Abby's and of course Phil's - which was the perfect speech to finish it off with because it was so so funny!! Your reception was wonderful and so fun, it's been amazing to relive such a fun day through these posts!!Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05185652640389232120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-51266257823815806882017-07-19T09:53:53.596-05:002017-07-19T09:53:53.596-05:00Oh my goodness this made me tear up at my desk thi...Oh my goodness this made me tear up at my desk this morning! Everything is so beautiful--the thought you two put into this wedding is just so touching and meaningful. Also, on a lighter note, I love your sisters' dresses.
