FROM PROM DATES
TO HUSBAND & WIFE
It was really amazing getting to be Taylor's Matron of Honor, and do for her everything she did for me 9 months ago...everything from dress shopping to the Bachelorette Party! At the beginning of April we had Taylor's first shower in Lafayette. Mrs. Delong & Abby were the hosts, and it was a perfect day with lovely ladies.
Next Ryan & I hosted a Couples Shower at our house for Taylor & Kyle's friends. It was so much fun having everyone there together. We had good food, tons of fun playing beer pong, and Taylor & Kyle got a lot of great gifts.
There wasn't much down time before the Bachelorette Party was here! A bunch of us girls stayed in a hotel in down town Indianapolis. We had a great dinner at Pronto in the new J.W. Afterwards we headed up to our rooms and opened gifts and played drinking games. We ended our night at Bartini, V.I.P style. It was such a fun night with all of Taylor's closest girlfriends.
Kyle & the boys had a Bachelor Party in Vegas, but we couldn't just stay home...so we decided on a Bachelorette Party (Round 2) in Cali!! We had the best girls weekend + Boumpa. Relaxation, Shopping, Dining, & Spas : )
Once everyone was back from vacations Taylor & Kyle moved into their new home, and it was just a few short weeks until wedding weekend. Thursday night people started to arrive to Lafayette and it was great seeing everyone. Thursday anyone who was already in town met at Nine Irish for dinner & drinks. Friday morning Kyle and the guys went golfing at the Elks while Taylor & I got pretty at the spa : ). We then had lunch and spent a while getting the reception room looking gorgeous.
Friday night, and the rehearsal was here. The wedding party and family met at the church for a quick run through before dinner at the Elks. The Pearls put on such a fun evening at the Elks, everything was perfect from the decor to the delicious food! The bride & groom spoiled the wedding party with great gifts, every girl loves Coach : )
June 4, 2011 = Wedding Day! After a nearly 16th month engagement it was finally wedding day. All the girls had a suite to get ready in on the 3rd floor of our hotel, while the guys were in a suite on the 2nd floor, just far enough away. It was actually a very relaxed morning getting ready with all us girls. Oliva & Kailey came to do all of our hair and they did a wonderful job. We had mimosas and snacks, did make-up, and got everything ready for the day.
She was finally ready and off to meet her Groom!!
The 2:30 pm ceremony was beautiful, and my wonderful husband was the best photographer during the whole thing.
They did it! Mr. & Mrs. Kyle Pearl!! Between the ceremony and the reception the entire wedding party road around in the limo, making a few stops for pictures and cocktails. We had so much fun at Harry's.
Reception & time to celebrate the newlyweds! Despite the AC going out everything looked beautiful & everyone had a blast. The DJ was wonderful and the photo booth was a hit. (I didn't get to take too many pictures at the reception, but the photographer's pictures should be up any day now, and I know they will all be wonderful!)
The Newlyweds are spending their honeymoon in the Bahamas! CONGRATS Mr. & Mrs. Pearl : )
