Our Big Day

The night before the wedding, my wonderful american friends came down early to hang w Nielder, Shay & I before the big day. We had a delightful slumber party at the hotel and watched the fireworks...which...probably wasnt the best idea seeing as all I wanted to do was go out and show them how AMAZING Sarnia is...Jamie & I had given Sarnia such rave reviews during the year that I clearly couldnt dissapoint them...Nielder did her duties and told me we had curfew...she is so wise that woman! It was SO amazing to have some of my favourite human beings all reunited in one room. Shay got to work on my nails as Katy continuously told me I was getting married the next day ( didnt make me nervous AT ALL)...The only bad apart about all of it was I was soo excited that everyone was there that I didnt sleep a wink and my eyes had a mind of their own the next morning.... my mini eye was out in FULL force!!

If only I could relive this night.....

Katy is smiling with her eyes...


July 2nd....the hottest day in the history of Sarnia/ of all time. Thank God for my prediction that Jamie was going to pass out from the heat...switching the whole wedding to indoors one month before the wedding was the best thing I could have done!! All the girls met at the Hair Professionals in the morning for some breakfast, hair & makeup....Papa Prev even made a guest appearance...

It didnt really hit me that I was getting married until I made a small cheers with the girls before we were heading out...I got choked up and couldnt finish my friendship cheers ( I mean...I dont think thats ever happened before...) I looked at my moh Nielder and I knewwww she could feel how nervous I was... the thought of being infront of all those people and trying to keep it together terrified me...Thank God for papa prev that dear soul thats had to deal w 6 ladies in the house... he managed to make me laugh walking down the aisle telling me how excited he was to give me away ( 1 down, 4 to go)...The ceremony was beautiful. We had two wedding singers ( Kalie & Johanne) who took my breath away when they sang marry me by train as we made our way down the aisle...When asked by our officiant if we wanted to know the secrets of how marriage works...Jamie answered that he`d prefer the cliff notes....clearlllyyy he knows ALL the secrets already...and then we became... Husband & Wife.

Apparently peoples cameras werent big enough to capture my entire wedding party.. Lyns & Jen are hiding somewhere to the left....

Once the ceremony was done, we headed into our 28 passenger limo bus. We were soooo excited to be our own people and drink in this beautiful limo we ordered...Ohhh but wouldnt it be soo nice if life was easy and everything went as smoothe as we planned? Well... our flippin limo was a SAUNA. They failed to tell us they had a small leak in the air conditionning ( clearly would happen on a 110 degree day) SOOO my dress is sticking to me, my nephew is experiencing a small heat stroke...everyone is heading in a coma....SOOO... clearly our pictures had to be short lived...and what bettttttter way to spend my wedding day then in a flippin ARENA!!! If anyone had asked me the last place id want to be on my wedding day, it would be an arena ( dont get me wrong I love hockey and all... but summer means no hockey/ no arena...period!) BUT I embrassed that arena and almost took a swan dive as soon as I seen the ice...I was determined. NO BRIDEZILLA.

I wish we could go back to our reception over and over. By far the best night of my life! You couldnt have peeled me off the dance floor if you wanted to.. I was glued to it!! Our photographer ( Brooke Leitch...one of my new best buds) set up a photobooth which ended up being such a hit... between that and the dance floor I was the definition of "being ur own person" so much so that I had a personal drink gettter ( Nielder... ur double rye and diets were delightful!!)...Our dance party lasted the entire night and we almost got our dj in trouble for wanting an encore when the lights came on... thank you Nellie, you were amazinggg!!!! I mean.. I mayy or may not have broken my dress dancing/ skippin on an imaginary skipping rope trying to out-do Jamie...Our MC`s Katy & Andrea did an incredible job...nobody would have known they both threw up before they got up there..thats true love ladies..I cant say enough about how unbelieveable our wedding party was...Im not going to go into detail about each of you ( Ive already described my love for each of you on a previous blog)...you were all amazing!!! As for my maid of honour... Nielder... you have a way with words... touched my heart. And....Dave, you are right... I take my career as a teacher so seriously that I DID marry a guy with a learning disability (ps... you blew any best man speech out of the water with that comment)... I mean... you can`t help who you fall in love with, right? ...Im forever grateful for everyone that made our night so so so amazing!!!! Marrying my best friend and sharing our special day with our favourite human beings ( minus a few that couldnt be there)  was the perfect fairy tale ending as a PREVOST... I cant wait to wear my new nickname as FRAZ better than Jame.
Heres a few of my favourite stolen pictures and a few sneak peak pictures from our photographer :)
