I didn't take very many pictures of the wedding but will share a few that I did get. The first picture is of the sunset the night before Daren and Monique's wedding - it set the tone for a very beautiful weekend.None of my pictures were during the wedding - just before and after. Here Mo is, making sure Dad knows what to do I guess? :) We could do a caption contest on this one and see what everyone thinks she is saying. :)
Mo was a happy, beautiful bride - floating around all day with a huge smile on her face. Radiant.
During the pre-wedding photo shoot, Justin was posing Ty as Napoleon. It would have been the most unique wedding pictures ever if Mo and Daren would have let Justin and Ty be in charge of all the poses in all the pictures. :)
Monique changed her name on this day, but so did Daren. Now he is UNCLE Daren to Mo's 6 nieces and nephews. They are all as crazy about him as they are about her.
Monique Jo...
At the reception they had a cookie buffet instead of traditional cake. It was so great! Very much like a classy picnic. See the cute milk bottles? We all enjoyed having milk and cookies - had to sample each kind, you know!
Happy, cute Mo. Maybe a bit tired of photos by this time, but she didn't let on.
I asked these two how many weddings they've been to together over the years. Uncle John chuckled and said "Quite a few". He stood up with Dad and Mom when they got married. Believe it or not, he wore the same suitcoat to Monique's wedding as he did to Dad and Mom's!
Notice she is wearing a Wyoming t-shirt as she moves away. I wonder if Daren has ever heard that saying "you can take a girl out of Wyoming but you can't take Wyoming out of a girl"?
I can report that the newlyweds are faring well. A cousin of Daren's "riced" their house so they are finding evidence everywhere as they set house up. :)It was a beautiful day for sure, thanks Daren and Mo, for planning it the way you did. It was perfect.

Fun trip down "wedding lane". Thanks, Linda
Fun 'behind' the scene pictures! :) I AM so curious what the conversation was between Dad and I in that picture :) LOVE your new blog look as well!
And in response to your last comment -- THANK YOU for each one of you that spent the day with us -- because that's what made it special!
much love, Mo
Thanks so much for sharing the pictures. I love seeing Mo start her new life!
The dresses for the girls are beautiful! I love the milk and cookies, so unique.
I still get teary eyed when I think of the tears in Moniques eyes when the kids were singing. I know it was tears of joy, and so many more emotions. Love the behind the scenes pictures too.
Thanks for sharing. Love ya
I heard through Jen's blog, that the 6 kids sang a hymn! That must have been fun to hear!
Hey, our blog backgrounds match!! You have such great taste! :) Thanks HEAPS for putting up these photos -- I thought of you all so much that day, and I'm glad to feel a bit more a part of their joyful union.
So nice to see pictures! I didn't realize the connection. We were with them at Dagmar Conv this summer. It was my first time up there & very special for me. Will we see you at Georgetown? Take care - Andrea & Russell
