Here Ye, Here Ye...

I announce to you Princess Ashley and Prince Jeffrey; future King and Queen of England.

Ok, maybe it wasn't the actual Royal Wedding in the Wright/McNamara family this weekend, but it was definitely an affair fit for a King and Queen.
The wedding we all anxiously waited for was finally here and it couldn't have been better!  Everything from the rehearsal dinner (complete with three generations of fine china) fit for royalty on Thursday night to the last gift opened on Sunday afternoon.  So many wonderful events were packed into four days, it would take me days to blog about every one of them so I will give you the down and dirty details.

Thursday PM:
Rehearsal at Church, followed by steak, potatoes, salad, dessert and plenty of adult beverages at the Wright house (mom & dad)
Friday AM:
Pick up the future Mrs. Wright from Apple Valley and go get the beautiful gown and run misc. errands
Friday Afternoon:
Meet bridal party and mom's at Oak Glen Golf Course in Stillwater to decorate for the reception (my job was to alphabetize the place cards)
