Funny how something as seemingly innocent, like a name... can pack such a powerful punch. Today was the day that the girl I've known for years as Jenny Polson, became Mrs. Jenny Steinhauser. (Has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?) While wrapped up and neatly tied in a beautiful gown, Jenny's transformation was complete with pink bling frosted shoes (see below). As I arrived, she was just about to open this card from the man now identified as her husband, Jared (aka: Mr. Steinhauser). :)

Big dog lovers, this card was the perfect choice to make Jenny smile (and cry). :)

Accompanying her card, was a beautiful pair of diamond earrings (see below). Nice choice Jared!

Immediately after snapping this photo, Addison asked me in her cute little voice, "Can I see (the picture)?"

I never knew Jenny was so crafty! The three flowers and ribbon under the bust of the dress were all her handiwork... they made the perfect finishing touch on a dress that is now truly one-of-a-kind!

Being part of Jenny and Jared's wedding was a trip down memory lane. Between swim team, dance team and good ol' high school in general, it felt like a mini-reunion!

These two lovelies, Lindsey & Nicki, busted out some dance moves in the hotel suite and thought I was kidding when I told them it could end up on the blog.... :) How could I not? Look how adorable they are!

Something old, something new. Something borrowed, something.... blue. :) A great solution for incorporated her grandmother's blue ring!

Jenny's craftiness continued with these embellishments to Addison's dress.

Jenny's mom looked on with excitement.... :)

Va-va-voom! Love this. (Check the pink shoes!)

Pretty new earrings... courtesy of Jared.

Speaking of.... Jared was anxious to get the show on the road!

Their dog, Herbie, was part of the fun too. He came down the aisle with Ryan... while wearing the rings on his collar, which is also how Jared proposed!

Ryan &  Addison walk Herbie down the aisle...

And.... they're married! In a wonderful ceremony surrounded by loved ones... they tied the knot (and Jenny got a new last name)!

What a treat! Getting to be part of the family on a special day in their lives... reminds me what it's all about. Thanks guys. :)  Greece is waiting for you!!!!
