Mr. and Mrs. Hancock!

It was definitely a big weekend! Graham and I were both in our dear friends Matt and Lauren's wedding. It has been a much anticipated weekend since we set them up almost 4 years ago! The wedding was nothing short of perfect! We were all so worried about the weather, but as expected, the storms were just afternoon ones that cleared both Friday and Saturday night just in time! Friday was filled with Bridesmaid Luncheon for me and Rehearsal and Rehearsal dinner for the both of us. Because it was pretty Friday night in time for dinner, they were still able to have the dinner out on the patio at Belle Meade. It was just perfect weather then since the rain had brought in some cool air. The whole night was wonderful full of family, friends, good food and toasts galore. The toasts were certainly a tribute to them and what wonderful people they are. I stood up there having trouble believing that Lauren and I rode to Mother's Day out together when we were just babies and here I was toasting to Lauren before she got married and with me pregnant. We sure have come a long way together!!!

Saturday's storm also passed just in time for the ceremony and reception. It was all beautiful, espectially the bride!

Is she the most stunning bride you have ever seen? I told her she needs to be a movie star...

Another special thing about this wedding is that Lauren is a First grade teacher. Some of her students from the past 2 years came and sang a Psalm before Lauren came down the aisle. Not only was hearing them sing, so precious, but their love of Lauren even more so. When she came down that aisle, those kids had to be held back trying to all gather and see her. It was so sweet. When they finally got to see her after the wedding, they all ran and hugged her a million times!!!

Here are a few more ceremony pictures...

After the Ceremony, we all gathered in a Trolley and headed to Belle Meade for the reception!

First dance to "Can't take my Eyes off of you" which was awesome. They bounced all over that dance floor and it was so fun for everyone!

This was another fun surprise. The very talented Audrey and EA got up and sang "For Once in my Life" for Lauren and Matt and it was AWESOME!!!

Now they are on their Honeymoon for NINE night in the Dominican Republic! I am so jealous!!!

Anyways, the whole weekend was so happy and fun and perfect and Graham and I loved being a part of it. Those are only a few of the 270 pictures I took, but this post is already really long!

Lauren and Matt, we love you and are so excited for you!!!
