The Wedding of a Hippie and a Gypsy Best

On Thursday Kelly, Sarah and I traveled to Virginia to start the wedding festivities for our bff Maggie. Thursday Night we had a professional henna artist draw all over our bodies. She was amazing and the designs were so beautiful. There were 9 bridesmaids, most of whom I did not know before. I really loved them all.
Friday we decorated the church, rehearsed, and enjoyed burritos at the big texan dinner! It was so fun.
Saturday was the big day. We got our hair done, primmed and prepped and prepared to walk down the isle.
It was the most unbelievable wedding I have ever witnessed. It was ethnic and cultural and amazing. I teared up when Maggie walked down the isle. I feel honored and so thankful that I was able to be a part of the BEST day of her life.

 Maggie's outrageously perfect dress that she made. I got teary when I saw her in it for the first time. Not sure why I was surprised her dress wasn't white. No one could ever pull that off as fantasticly as she did.

 Kyle came to the wedding. I'm so glad he was there to experience this with me. When I asked him if he now had wedding fever like I did he said, "No, but it did reaffirm that I will in fact love you forever."

  Now we're back home. I miss Maggie, Kelly and Sarah, and all of my new friends. I wish Maggie and Justin the BEST. I can't wait to see their professional pics and hear Maggie's reflection of the day. She's going to report back if it's worth having a big ceremony and reception or just skip the whole deal. I'm interested to hear!
