Down the Aisle: Maika + Scott

Only a few days ago, Maika's dress was in 10+ pieces. Can you imagine? Literally.... it was in pieces. It had been altered at a dress shop in Oklahoma, and somehow... it didn't go as planned. Maika's mom Marcia came to the rescue and pretty much gave it a complete makeover. Isn't that just like a mom? They always seem to have a way to magically make it all better. :) If this story makes you anxious and you need a good laugh... check out Maika's take on it on her blog. Hilarious!

High school rivals turned love birds, Maika and Scott were practically fated to be together. During her dad's toast, Bill mentioned that he and Maika's mom have known Scott's parents, Steve & Deb, for years. They always thought Maika & Scott should date... and today... they watched as their children exchanged vows giving their hearts to one another as husband and wife. How fortunate both families are! :)

l.o.v.e.

adorable.

I'm diggin' both of these shots and couldn't decide which one to post... so.... here's both. :)

Scott is preparing for a grand new adventure as an F-15 pilot for the U.S. Air Force, so naturally... having programs that fold into paper airplanes was a must. What a great idea! (Note the adorable instructions at the bottom....)

This one is practically a heart stopper. Yeow-sa Maika!

The reception was held at Nebraska's Strategic Air & Space Museum. Suh-weet!

I'm told that Scott surprised Maika with dancing lessons before the wedding... and boy oh boy, did it show! Nice work guys!

Scott was in charge of the cake toppers... bride & groom jets. lol!

They drank champagne from the classic “brautbecher" cup. It's said that whoever empties their cup first will be the boss of the marriage. The jury is still out of who won... it was a close call!

The reception entertainment included the vintage vocal stylings of Michael Walker.

Had to bring it home with a portrait alongside one of the classic planes... :)

You did it guys! Thanks so much for inviting me to be part of it.... what a treat!
