Kendra's Stagette

Martini Party

We played a video newly wed question answer game, Wedding Family Fued, and Dirty Drink name game. As gifts everyone brought a martini glass for Kendra to keep. There is a great collection. With no planning there is a set of four, a set of two, and the rest are individual and beautiful.

Very late in the evening we headed off to LaBodega. I barely remember things from this photo on.

Opening our gifts from Kendra

Before the Ceremony

We had photos at the university. But this meant that Kendra and Aaron were going to see each other before the ceremony. We arrived at the university Library building in seperate vehicles. The girls remained in the van while Aaron was escorted to the stairs to wait.

Then Kendra walked toward him, he turned, he saw her, and all of us girls reached for a Kleenex.
