Amy and Brad's wedding day - Part 2

We're picking up where we left off from yesterday with Amy and Brad's wedding in Clear Lake and Seabrook. They had their reception at the Lakewood Yacht Club in Seabrook which gave me a sense of deja vu when we showed up. I felt like I had been there before but didn't know how. I finally figured out that I had been there back when I was in college for the Blessing of the Fleet event. No time to recount old college day stories.

Check out Ashley's blog for more pictures.


It was such a great day with blue skies and the yacht area looked really great, too.

Couldn't decide between color and non-color again.

Yes, their reception was at a yacht club, in case there's any doubt.

Amy and Brad gave their guests packets of hot chocolate (I think that's what it was because I didn't really get a chance to look at it intently enough) and they also gave little whisks with the packets. So cute!

Because of the scheduling of the day, we ended up with more time than usual to take pictures of the bride and groom and the bridal party. So we took them outside and had fun with it.

Amy posed without even knowing it. I caught a few of her just standing there, but looking so elegant at the same time.

Not posed, this is just what she was doing. She's a natural!

A different take on a group picture.

Such a sweet moment! This is Brad's grandmother holding his niece, so that represents four generations right there.

Everyone needs a resting buddy. Kind of reminds of the scene in 'Forrest Gump' where Bubba and Forrest lean back on each other to sleep.

The party has begun!

The guys.

Not sure if someone was making a face at them, or a hand gesture, or making a comment.

Amy and Brad's wedding day - Part 1

Another beautiful wedding for a fun couple! Amy and Brad had their ceremony down in Clear Lake and had a huge wedding party - 7 bridesmaids and 12 groomsmen! WOW! We showed up early and had time to photograph around the church before the girls arrived. Once they arrived they were busy running around and getting things ready. Amy looked beautiful with her hair pinned up and she also had a lovely dress with some beautiful beading.
The guys were in the other room cutting it up. Imagine the hustle and bustle with 13 guys plus the fathers, all trying to get ready.

Part 2 to come!

And check out Ashley's blog for more pictures.

Amy picked out some really pretty flowers for the bouquets.

Elegant shoes. The beading on the shoes went really well with the beading on the dress.

The chaos in the dressing room! People were running around and scurrying.

Amy's complete was beautiful!

The bridesmaids are heading out into the ceremony, one by one, and they are ready to get started!

Amy and her parents head out of the room to go down the aisle. When this church was built, each family of the church was asked to donate a cross to be hung on the wall above the entrance to the sanctuary. I thought that was such a neat touch.

Brad's niece was all tuckered out during the ceremony.
