The Rehearsal and the Afro-Wig!

Our rehearsal began and I was a little nervous as I didn't have every detail of the ceremony planned (who would stand where etc). Our minister quickly put us all at ease with her great sense of humor and we started walking through the ceremony. I have no idea HOW I didn't notice but suddenly our minister looks at Mr. Onion's brother who was one of our groomsmen and just couldn't keep back a laugh.




He was wearing an Afro-Wig, a gold tooth, a dollar sign necklace and a belt that read "PHAT." So freakin' funny! Note the look on my father in law's face -- is it fear or embarrassment? I'm not sure. It's a good thing I have a sense of humor and have had almost 3 years to get used to my brother in law!

The rehearsal went pretty well but I still wasn't 100% sure we'd all remember everything but I had faith that our wonderful minister would keep everything running smoothly (which it did)! Here are some more pictures of the walk through (we even got to practice the kiss -- so fun)!







See how long my hair was? I had been growing it out for a year and it felt so great to get my hair cut on our honeymoon!

Next it's on to the pre-ceremony portraits...

Note: All the photos so far were taken by family and friends. Just wait -- they get even better! The only professional photos we have yet were included in my first wedding post, I *Heart* Daria Bishop.
