Considering our differences I suppose it’s no surprise that at various points in my sister’s wedding planning I got calls that I found alarming. The first was to announce that I would be wearing a purple dress. I’ve never really considered myself to be a purple person, but I was determined to grin and bear it. The next shocking announcement was that my sister had chosen a SILVER wedding dress! (Jasmine T134 – if you’re into that kind of thing, you can see it below.)

The wedding was beautiful, my sister was gorgeous, and even though the colors were confounding at first – I have to admit that Purple and Silver seemed to be a great combination. I loved seeing family and old friends again, it’s my favorite part of any wedding and I have to admit I also love that it is over! I was so worried that I was going to trip, step on my Sister’s dress, or in some way damage my own dress that I was able to breath a big sigh of relief when it was all over, the dress was back on the hanger, and the bobby pins were all out of my hair. (Though I have to admit that I am *still* brushing hair spray out, days later!)

I have to say, it’s nice to see two people make that commitment to each other – it would be even nicer if I could’ve seen it while wearing flats but still it was a beautiful and memorable day.
