The rehearsal dinner was held at The Intercontinental on the Country Club Plaza. Mimi and Papa planned such a wonderful evening with all of our friends and family! Everyone loved Will's outfit (khaki cords with a button down, sweater vest and bow tie!), and the bride-to-be looked like a million bucks!
Rehearsal at the church!
On the day of the wedding, all of the girls got ready at Mission Hills Country Club, where the reception took place. Leeze was as calm as could be!
The wedding took place at Grace & Holy Trinity Church, which was very old, and very beautiful. They asked their Godson to be the ring bearer, and we couldn't have been more excited! He wore the most darling little imp suit- black velvet jacket over a white button- down with a Peter Pan collar, velvet shorts, knee socks and saddle shoes! The aisle was incredibly long, and hardwood, so we opted to have Jay walk the Bug down the aisle and it was the most precious thing. Jay teared up as Leeze walked down the aisle, which I had a feeling might happen. I like to watch the groom while the bride is coming down the aisle. His first reaction upon seeing her is always the most magical (and fleeting!) moment for me. I was so honored to stand up among Jay & Leeze's very closest friends and family to watch as they got married!
The reception took place back at Mission Hills CC and it was fantastic! The food was fabulous, the cake gorgeous, the drinks flowing and the band- oh, the band was phenomenal! Everyone (literally!) danced the entire night away - especially the bride and groom! I loved it!
Then the newlyweds jetted off to Bora Bora for their honeymoon (rough life!). Sounds like a fairy tale from start to finish, right?
I could not be happier for the new Mr. & Mrs. G. Our family has basically loved Leeze since the first minute we met her. I don't think it's especially common to get along SO well with your in laws, but Leeze is such a welcome addition to our family. It's great that she's my sister-in-law now, but first and foremost she is such a dear, dear friend. I am already loving watching these two slip into married life together! I cannot think of two people better suited for each other than these two. I know that they are going to have the most amazing life by each other's side!
