Mr. & Mrs. Justin and Brittany Pike

Last week, I flew to Orlando for my cousin Brittany’s wedding.  I arrived on Wednesday night and immediately dove into the wedding festivities on Thursday! 

The favors for the wedding guests were going to be sugar cookies in the shape of pears because the theme was ‘The Perfect Pair.’  My grandmother had made all 400+ cookies, and it was the bridesmaids’ job to ice them all!

Mixing up the perfect color green for the pear shaped cookies!

 

Yummy!!

After icing most of the cookies, four us us went to go get our nails done.  Oh, and our cute shirts are courtesy of Stephanie Metzler, sister of the bride and Matron of Honor!

On Friday, my parents and sister arrived!  It was so great to see my family again!  (I hadn’t seen them since I moved to Montreal in July!)  The rehearsal was that night, and Stephanie and Matt Metzler opened their home for the dinner as well.

Oh, I missed her!!

‘Aunt’ Krissy and Isaac!  I also had the pleasure of staying at the Metzler house with this adorable little man for most of my trip!

Saturday was WEDDING DAY!!  So exciting!  The bridesmaids all got ready at the Metzlers’ home, and then headed over to Lake Receptions for the wedding!

The Beautiful Bride!!

I did my own and Shannon’s hair for the wedding! It looked great if I do say so myself!

Stunning!

The wedding ceremony was absolutely perfect, and the reception was so much stinking fun!!

Dancing the night away!!

The wedding was bittersweet for Brittany’s close friends and family because she was moving with Justin to Missouri, where he is stationed in the Air Force.  Being a Florida native, she’s not gonna know what hit her when she gets her first big snowfall, but I know they will be just fine! 

Congratulations & Good Luck Mr. & Mrs. Pike!!  Love you both!
