We are finally the Dragers!
















Zach and I are finally husband and wife!! October 9th was such a wonderful day and we were so blessed to have all of our family and close friends able to come to our wedding! The weather could not have been more perfect, we lucked out with the leaves changing and had beautiful scenery. The wedding week was a blast, most of our family was able to come early and everyone took part in helping us out. Zach's mom and grandmas and Gene's girlfriend Sarah were able to come help me and my mom set up the reception and thank goodness for them or we would never had been able to get it done! Then the next day my aunts and cousins were able to come help and put the finishing touches on everything! During all this decorating, our dads and my brother were running errands all over town and were a huge help! This was my favorite part of the week because both of our families came together to help each other out and were able to spend time together before the big day!! The rehearsal day was fun, I got to have lunch with two of my best friends Aimee and Beth and they were able to just be silly and fun and calm my nerves. The rehearsal was quick and then John and Colleen had everyone for dinner at the Bistro Roca. This was such a fun dinner where our families and bridal party could all relax and have a great time together. The dinner was fantastic and John and Colleen really did an awesome job making sure we all had the best time!
I had been hearing how your wedding day goes by so fast so I made a point to make sure I just took it all in. I had so much fun just getting ready with all of my bridesmaids, doing hair and makeup and just hanging out. Erin, Zach's sister did ALL of our hair and she did a fantastic job!! She worked so hard and we all looked beautiful because of it! I had Sarah do my makeup and have never felt more beautiful! The ceremony was beautiful on the top of the mountain and Zach did a good job of joking with me during the cermony so I wouldn't cry too hard. And I have to say Diesel was the cutest ring bearer I have ever seen!! The reception was incredible! Everyone danced and had a great time and the guests went through 86 lbs of candy at the candy bar, I was so proud of them!!
One last thought on the day, I have to thank my mom. I would like to take credit for planning the wedding because it was just absolutely incredible but I can't, that credit all goes to my mom. For the last 11 months Zach and I were engaged she has been organized and on top of every detail, even designing all the centerpieces herself!! I know I shouldn't be suprised because my mom always gives 110% to me but seeing all she did for us just blows me away! I'm so lucky she is my mom and Zach and I were so lucky to have such a beautiful wedding because of her!!
