PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT

Be prepared, lots and lots of pictures.

This afternoon was the wedding rehearsal at DanWalt Gardens. I’m making a separate post of the garden pictures. This place is just incredible. 

Before the rehearsal we went to lunch with Michaela and Todd (in the center), Annie (her sister) Jim and

her stepfather (Jeff), her mom (Mary) and once again her sister.

We headed over to the Gardens for the rehearsal.

Dan said, “In front of the rocks, in front of the rocks!” Finally they got it right.

Part of Michaela’s wedding party. Poor Todd. He only has Jim and I and four groomsmen (one of which was late to the party and another who couldn’t be there for the rehearsal).
