Dancing feet.

Another Jason photo. Every once in a while, he really surprises me with his composition in photography - this is one. I really like this picture.



Cutting the cake! (photo by Jason who also took the dancing photos, FYI.)



The scene of the crime. I say that in jest, but it looks a little creepy in this picture, although it was actually incredibly beautiful. The lawn and gardens were nicely done - very relaxed with lots of color and detail. Ver' nice.

My short brother with his head in the lanterns (No, he wasn't standing on a chair, and no, they weren't particularly low).

Ally laughing with GG. She looked so happy and bubbly!

Salad and wine. Mmm Mmm!

Their first dance. I particularly like 2p smiling like a cheetah in the background - an apt reflection of what all Andrew's sisters were doing at that moment!

The fruit and veggie portion of the appetizers.

The cheese board. Only Jason was cheesier than this table! :)

Speaking of the handsome devil - my sweetie with the favor: a DVD of Doc Hollywood, which I thought was wonderfully appropriate! Ver' nice, whoever thought of that!

Pretty floral centerpiece.

A wider shot of the exchanging of roses.

GG and Jonny in front, Mom and Dad in back. All cute.

Inside the little reception tent, these fun little lanterns were hanging - they were pink and green.

The meeting of the Mommas: Andrew's momma, Cathy and Allyson's mom, Loretta, meet at last.

Shawn and Caryn walking up through the rain to the safety of the porch. It started raining almost immediately after the ceremony, which was blissful, because it cooled things off. It intermittenly rained throughout the rest of the day, so as soon as it got really hot, the rains would come and cool everything off.

The view from the top of the steps.

Well, Arthur and Helen look as if they're having fun.

A wider shot of the ceremony (yeah, out of order).

All married now!

Another smooch; I particularly like how they're being pelted with confetti from starboard.

Walking back to the arrival car (a sweet Rolls Royce Phantom II!)

About to get in to the Rolls.

Exchanging rings.

Exchanging roses (which I thought was highly appropriate, given Ally's love of roses that she grows in their yard!)

Allyson looking all beautiful and poignant-like.

Ah, the wedding kiss!

Andrew watching his bride walk up the aisle to him (lawdy, I'm getting all teary just writing this!)

Up the steps they go!

Momma looks on as her eldest gets hitched.

Vows.

Jonny struts across the front lawn to where we were all waiting under the magnolia.

Look at them shiny shoes - on a clammer, no less!

When the sun came out, we all scampered to relief in the shade of the magnolia and live oaks.

The roses for the ceremony.

Taking pictures of my mom (and dad!) is downright impossible. They are always talking and being silly, and so nearly every picture of them is silly-looking. In this one, Mom is talking (no doubt telling me to take a hike - enough with the pictures already!) but still, I thought she looked pretty :)

Momma and Jonny look out into the gardens of the mansion.

Shortly before the wedding, these two actually let me take a picture of them! (Momma and Shawn).

Scott waits in the shade.
