Our Cran-Lemon Wedding: Making it Official

After Steve and I danced with our parents to good ol' Stevie, it was time for us to take a minute to thank our guests. I let Steve take the reins on this one, since he's the better public speaker. He kept it short and simple by thanking everyone for coming and saying that we hoped to see them at the parties for the rest of their lives. I threw in that we loved them.


Then, while our guests enjoyed their wedding cake and ice cream sundaes, our officiant reminded us that we still needed to sign our wedding license. We wouldn't want to forget that! We gathered our witnesses - MOH L and Steve's brother M - and our photographer snapped a few shots.




The document was signed and our marriage was official! Of course this called for more hugs all around.




Then it was time to get the party started again. Our DJ played a song that Steve and I had looked forward to dancing to with our friends, so we rushed to the dance floor to join them...

  1. Very nice! I wish we would have had pictures of our friends and officiant signing the marriage license! I also love that you two made a thank you speech! That's something we didn't really think of at the Reception, but we did thank our family and friends at our Rehearsal.
