Paul and Angela's Wedding, Part 5: The Ceremony

The music started playing and the ceremony began.

Leah sat with Opa for most of the ceremony. She was such a good girl - so quiet, just looking around to see what was going on.

Then he returned and picked up his bridesmaid partner, Danielle

Angela's sister and Maid of Honor, Karyn

When it was Cameron's turn to walk down the aisle, he waited for the wedding planner to take him, like she had the day before! He didn't understand that he was supposed to go on his own. Either way, she walked along with him and showed him where to go. It was cute!

He was very serious about his job and did so well!

Here comes the bride!!

Paul stood with his back turned while Angela made the long walk to the start of the aisle. He didn't want to see her until she was closer so that his first look would be a good one.

Waiting for his bride. Can that really be my nerdy little brother, looking at his wife-to-be with so much love in his eyes?

Amazingly enough, Cam listened to us when we told him he had to sit quietly for the entire ceremony. Thirty minutes of not talking is very hard for a chatty boy like Cameron, so we were so proud of him for being so good!

The first reading

This was during my reading - I think I had just read the part saying that Paul asked Angela if he could pick one reading as a surprise to her... this is her nervous laughter in response to me saying that this was the first time she or anyone would be hearing it.

The nervous laugh shifted pretty quickly to tears as I read the rest of the reading. Again, who knew that the nerdy kid brother could be such a romantic?!?!

I think she was happy that she let him pick this reading out!

And now, time for the rings!

I like this artsy-fartsy shot. Also a good picture of the beautiful jewelry Angela was wearing.

I give you this ring...

Brian and Ali sang a beautiful song

"I now pronounce you husband and wife!"

And of course, "you may kiss the bride"

Mr. and Mrs. Kinsella!!
Reception pictures will be posted tomorrow!
