Ring bearers for Mandy & Tony

My friend Mandy married Tony yesterday!  It was a beautiful day for a fantastic couple. It was a blessing to be a part of their wedding day.  The boys got to be ring bearers.  This marked their third time being ring bearers and thankfully it's gotten easier each time. Their first two weddings were outdoor and somewhat relaxed, but this time it was a formal church wedding.  The tuxedos certainly added an element of importance for the boys and they stepped into the role very nicely. Our friend Jenna was the flower girl - pretty handsome group, right?

 I was the wedding coordinator, so I had quite a few details I was tending to while also being the mom of the ring bearers.  Thank goodness Jenna's mom was willing to look after my boys too when I was too busy to do so.

The boys got dressed up for photos, then got back into regular clothes for a while and left to go play at Jenna's house and then came back to the church and got dressed in their tuxes again! 

 At least they like playing with the toys in the church nursery! :-)

 As the wedding got started the boys couldn't help but peek through the blinds to see what was going on in the sanctuary.

 Waiting wasn't the easiest thing to do, but they held it together pretty well.  And then suddenly it was their turn to go!

 The children stayed up at the front for a short while and then sat down with Ben and Jenna's mom Amy.  Then at the end, they walked out with the wedding party.

 Mandy and Tony left through a sea of bubbles.

 The Voth family did a family dance that was absolutely fantastic.

 The boys wanted to stay and dance but it was pretty obvious when the clock said 10pm that it was time for our family to go home.  It was a wonderful and fun day - congrats Mandy and Tony!
