Jonelle and Charles Wedding

Well it finally came!!

It was a really beautiful day, a few clouds and a bit of wind but nothing could get in the way of my little sisters wedding!

We were at the hair salon at 8am after bugger all sleep (jonelle was so excited that she didnt go to sleep till almost 1am and woke us all up before the sun) and had a frenetic morning of curlers, hair clips and Carrie-Anne creating masterpieces on our faces (it was no small feat covering up the bags and spots - she did an awesome job!)

After that it was back to the hotel for a bit of down time (and a few bubbly-redbulls) and into our dresses. By the time the cars arrived to pick us up we were still not all dressed and by the time we got to the ceremony at mum and dads we were almost half an hour late. Poor Charles probably thought that she had got cold feet at the last minute! But nothing of the sort, Jonelle couldnt wait to walk down the aisle to her husband.

Dad did a sterling job walking her down, he looked so proud! And I wish I could show you Charles' face as he watched them, he was looking at her with so much love, I ended up bawling the entire ceremony (and for about half an hour after!) because they wrote their own vows, and they were so lovely too. (the video is in production)

After the hard part we went to the mount beach for some photos, then off to the Elms for a few as well.

The reception was at mills reef, the food was amazing, so good!! It was a shame our corsets wouldnt allow us to squeeze more in - I could have pigged out to the maximum!

After that there was a lot of dancing, drinking and laughing. It really was an awesome day all round, so emotional and happy. And it freaked the hell out of me, I dont think I want to do it now!!

They have gone to Raratonga for two weeks on their honeymoon, so will be lovely and tanned and relaxed when they get back. So jealous!
