This love will surely grow

My older sister Tricia got hitched this month. She was a flawless bride.  I still get goosebumps thinking about my sister walking down the aisle with my dad. The night was filled with laughs, dancing, and family!

 
 I will say I was a little apprehensive about them having a band perform at the event.  I have been to weddings in the past where the band hasn't been up to par.  Todd Hembrick and the Hemispheres out of Chicago were the exact opposite.  All of Tricia's guests were dancing and they are still commenting on how great they were!  I even sang "give me just a little more time" with them.  I had just learned the words five minutes prior but thought it was my duty as sister of the bride to make a fool of myself.  This may have been brought on a little bit by the open bar.  I couldn't be happier for the newlyweds. Tricia looked great in her couture gown due to crossfit.  She also loosely follows a paleo diet.  Her pumpkin paleo pancakes are the bomb.com. She just got back from their honeymoon in St. Lucia.  When describing her honeymoon Tricia told me to just picture Jurassic Park.

I warned everyone at the wedding to not expect anything this extravagant at my wedding. Which reminds me... I should probably start planning that sucker!  I am excited to have a few friends planning their weddings as well. My friend Katie lives in the same town and is getting married next year.  She blogs over here.  I had a wedding Memorial day weekend that I was featured in as well. Blog post to follow.
