Welcome to the final episode of Chris and Nichole’s wedding story ….

The celebration with family and friends after their wedding ceremony started out slightly chaotic – all because of the rain. ….

We had to have a lot of the portraits taken in the same place as the ceremony AND the reception, which made it noisy, and busy and distracting …. but once the portraits were taken care of and dinner was served …. all that was left was the party!

And with this many family and friends, you KNOW it was a blast …

(the head table – not actually large enough for the HUGE wedding party!)

(so many nieces and nephews and cousins running around. Chris has a big extended family!)

(parents of the groom)

(keep an eye on Camille …. she adores Chris and Nichole, so she stayed close. But that’s not the only reason)

And they lived happily ever after ….

OK, actually, they went to Cancun and Nichole sprained her ankle as soon as they got there  …. but still.

In spite of everything – the rain, the cold, the chaos – I know Chris and Nichole both consider it the best day of their lives and I’m so grateful they asked me to share it with them….
