Robyn & Chris 01.23.10 Part I

It was wed­ding time! I hea­ded to Robyn’s room. 

The girls’ flo­wers — the pea­cock theme was amazing. 

And inte­gra­ted into every pos­si­ble place they could. Check out the fabu­lou­sity of those tights! All the ladies had them. 

Cloaks & dres­ses. Being January in DC and outside Robyn & Chris ensu­red that the gang would be ready to brave any weather.

Her mum hel­ped get her ready with care and precision.

After the dress was laced it was time to help Robyn get in her shoes. Well - — her foot­wear. AYKM!? HeckYES! 

Robyn does something top­sec­ret in NV. Ok, maybe it’s not top­sec­ret but I can’t remem­ber exactly. I know she flies jets though! After the last of the final touches we hea­ded to the Amphitheater.

I don’t know if you remem­ber all the snow that DC got this past winter. Well, luc­kily, that star­ted pretty much the day AFTER I left. The day of the wed­ding was unsea­so­nably warm and sheer per­fec­tion for an out­door after­noon wedding! 

Robyn’s sis­ters & the OMG so cute flo­wer girls.

Her dad wal­ked her down the stair­way and Chris met her at the bot­tom and wal­ked her the rest of the way to the stage. Look at their look! 

Chris’ parents & Robyn’s parents. They make me cry — so proud of their chil­dren! (and right­fully so!!) 

The Mason Dis­trict Park Amphithea­ter. Wow. 

The cere­mony was full of ama­zing sto­ries of the two of them. Having never met Chris and really only kno­wing Robyn casually it took no time at all for me to feel like I’d known these two fore­ver and to be com­ple­tely enve­lo­ped in the world that is their friends & family.

Done! I think Chris’ smile is going to leap right off his face!  

I can’t look at this without laugh-​crying. The ado­ra­ble red head had been sure she would help the sweet blonde. She thought she was right next to her and when she tur­ned to find her stum­bling a few steps back she was so concerned! 

Bird­seed in a park is a won­der­ful idea!

Until you rea­lize that the peo­ple you invi­ted to your wed­ding are ruth­less and chuc­king it at you full force!

Maybe it was because I got to spend so much time with this group but I could not get enough of their inte­rac­tions and loving. 

Chris those are great boots — but — I think they’re sort of outshi­ned by the green bling platforms! 

I have to say that the advan­tage to being so behind in my blogs is get­ting to relive this over again all this time later. It still feels like yes­ter­day! And wait til you see the recep­tion — I wish we could do it all over again tomorrow!!
