The lovely bridesmaids (Maggie, Caroline, Brittany).
The Bride and Groom - Look at how happy they look!
At one point, Justin shed tears. It was moving.
The ceremony was different in that it didn't have religion overtones, Bible verses, or traditional vows. But I really liked it. The officiant was serious but not boring and spoke from the heart about love and marriage. I don't remember the actual vows but one funny part stuck out. Justin appeared to stumble (possibly out of embarrassment?) when asked to repeat "lover" while Stasia appeared to yell/emphasis it.
Mr. and Mrs. Teague!
I found it amusing that the officiant wore his sunglasses the entire ceremony.
I'm sorry I didn't take more pictures - I had too much fun just enjoying myself! It was great to see everyone, drink some good wine, eat some delicious food (Opie's BBQ - I'm determined to recreate their tater tot casserole and Britt's working on their spicy corn and then we'll share!), and be a part of their special day!
A yummy and pretty cake from Lux Bakery!
They had a fantastic guestbook. It was a time capsule and guests were asked to pick one or more dates (1, 5, 10, or 25 years from now) and write a message or prediction to the couple. It could be anything we wanted and they provided examples like "where will they be living" and the more random one "how many robots will be living in their home." It was a SUPER cute and fun idea. I already told Stasia I'm definitely stealing that one from her! (She did take my red color so we're even, right?!)
All in all, a fun weekend trip to Austin and a beautiful wedding! I'm so grateful I was able to share in Stasia's special day and see her marry the man she loves. Congrats Stasia and Justin!
