Weekend Trip To Iowa

Emily and Justin (aka T-Rex) JUST MARRIED!!!

Josh and I spent a long weekend in Iowa to celebrate Justin and Emily's wedding! Josh's best friend Jeff (aka Lofty) is originally from Cedar Rapids, so we started the weekend spending some quality time with Lofty and his girlfriend, Christine at his parents' house.


There was LOTS of good food and booze involved! 
Friday night (after no sleep and missing her flight and all connections) Christine made some incredible guac, and Lofty's mother made us an incredible, truly Iowan meal while we all hung out on their deck with lots of wine. It was such a nice night with perfect weather! We lucked out this past weekend with warm, but not too warm, breezy weather. Saturday morning, after another amazing meal care of Mrs. Lofty, we headed out to a cute little church in Solon, Iowa and watched T-Rex and Emily get married. They were so obviously happy and excited about getting married that it was impossible not to get totally caught up in the ceremony.

Again, thank goodness for the beautiful weather! LOVED THESE!!!

Josh and I loved the post ceremony bubbles!

After the ceremony, we headed off to the reception which was beautiful and a blast! I have never been to a reception where literally every single person is on the dance floor almost the entire night! It was impossible not to join in and make a complete fool of myself!

Yummy appetizers!

The details at this wedding and reception were truly inspiring. I was so impressed with the little touches throughout the reception.

These are some of my favs:

Fabulous centerpiece!

Adorable!

Congrats T-Rex and Emily!
