The Elliott Wedding - Girl's Night Before

I only had a few pictures from the night before but it was loads of fun. Ashley got everyone stuff to pamper their feet with masks and scrubs and a soak and then I painted everyone's nails. I think it was the first time my mother had ever worn red nail polish, shes so trendy :P

Above: We are all letting our nails dry in the Hoke's basement.
Below: Em is getting a head massage from Ashley. She's in heaven being pampered all night!

The wedding was held at the Democratic Hall/Thomas Jefferson Hall in Hastings. There were a ton of people that showed up to help decorate and then for the rehearsal and cleanup the day after. These are just a few of the pictures from that.

The Elliott Wedding - Getting Ready

Emily made a 'Bride Suit' for the day of the wedding so she could get ready in it. It was soooo cute! This is on her little belly.


Below: Em in her Bride Suit with her veil on and Laurie Newton and Deb Elliott in the background.
Above: Ashley had to blowdry her curly hair before she could go get it done and it went poof!
Below is Casey doing Emily's hair before they put the veil in.


Above is Em's hair all done with the veil in, she looked amazing! and Below Jacob sent flowers to the Hoke's house where we were staying with a card addressed to Mrs. Emily Elliott and a note from him on the other side, and of course she cried, as did the rest of us.
oh and dont forget to pay the hair dresser, good thing we didn't forget anything!
