Jessica and Mike at Lake Pearl 9.12.08 Photos by Melissa and Ara

"Rain, Rain, GO AWAY!!!" is what I wanted to yell out the window at Jessica and Mike's wedding! They had planned for an outdoor ceremony at 6pm. Unfortunately it started raining at 5:30pm and never stopped. I know Jessica was disappointed at first, but it didn't last for long. The weather isn't the most important thing on a wedding day. What's important is that two people are beginning a new life together and everyone they know and love is there to celebrate!! The rain didn't ruin that for these two love birds! Another important part of a wedding... The photos, of course!! The rain didn't ruin that either!

Love this dress!!!

Snapdragons always does an amazing job!!! Look at that bouquet!!!

Here's Jessica reading the vows Mike wrote to her... Here's their daughter, Haley! She had her very own Princess camera that she took a picture of me with! Haley, send me a copy!

I love this picture! She is a gorgeous bride!

Ara got this shot during the ceremony and I love it.

Here's one from my angle

These ladies were having fun getting thier photos taken!

This is their "Charlie's Angel Pose"

All the boys want to kiss Jessica! Watch out, Mike!

You don't have to be outside to do a little jump! The guys on the end are getting some major air! Seriously, these two are so into each other! My camera lens was steaming up!

Jessica doesn't like to smile in photos and I can't say that I blame her. It's definitely working for her. She looks beautiful in this shot.

Sweet Cake! (no pun intended)

First Dance...

Who is that lady hiding in the floral arrangement? It's me!

My new favorite thing is a wall with some sort of spotlight! Who needs to go outside!?

The cake cutting from my perspective and Ara's

It's time to DANCE! (And boy did they!!)

This little guy is getting down!

Grandpa's getting some lovin! (Snapped by Ara)

The ladies singing "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" before the bouquet throw

Ara got these shots of the guys catching the garter. They look like a pack of wolves...

...ready to attack!!!!!

Jessica and Mike changed outfits for the their last dance. Anna from Snapdragons made them these cute leis because they are going to Hawaii for their honeymoon! (So filled with jealousy right now)
