rehearsing Mr. & Mrs. Jeffrey Stevens

We got their early on Friday to run errands and to help make the centerpieces and bouquets. Natalie and Rachel had it all under control and we really did very little except learn new terms associated with floral arranging. It was fun though and interesting. I think I did ok on the ones I made..they almost passed the 'bouquets stand on their own when they are made correctly' test!
It seemed like time flew by and before we knew it Daniel and Rachel were stuck in horrendous traffic while I opted to crash the bride's room upstairs to get ready! The weather was perfect and eventually everyone made it to the ever important rehearsal!
We had a lovely champagne toast and took some pics by the sad-looking Lake Travis. Natalie and her Girls' Weekend group had a limo, but Daniel and I rode with Mike and Rachel to Stubb's downtown. That was quite a drive...umm, Austin on a Friday night-game weekend! Craziness! We made it, though and my fun photo centerpiece jars made it too!!
Stubb's was lots of fun and the food was great as usual. That is where Jeff and Natalie met so it made sense to celebrate there! We ended up staying there to watch the end of the Oklahoma State game, which they lost, so we were excited to celebrate that...means Bama is one step closer to revenge in New Orleans for the National Championship!
We ended up heading around 6th Street, from Shakespeares to Coyote Ugly and some dancing in between, it was a great night!! Natalie's mom fell and hurt her foot..she couldn't even walk on it..poor things..my mom still had her boot from her broken foot!
We woke up early the next morning, had a quick breakfast and headed to make up and hair..also putting together the rest of the wedding details! I don't really have any wedding pics but click here if you want to see some!!
