Tottie & Dan are Married!

Where do we begin with this awesome celebration... Tottie and Dan are such an amazing and fun couple. We feel blessed to know them and were so excited to be a part of their day! Their wedding was beautiful! The ceremony and reception were held at the Holiday Inn in Columbia. It had rained the night before and the morning of, but a couple hours before their ceremony, the sun broke through the clouds to shine on their day. I stayed with the girls, while Drew hung out with the guys. It was so much fun taking the getting ready pictures, watching Tottie and the girls laugh while getting dolled-up. I've known most of them since high school (hi Heather, Linz, Jen & Colleen!) It was a wonderful day. And our friend and fabulous photographer, Andrea Ackermann, joined us later in the afternoon to second shoot and help out (thanks so much for everything, A!)

We had a hard time narrowing down our favorites for the blog, but here they are. We'll be posting their slideshow in a couple days, so stay tuned!

My multitasking BFF, Lindsay, was a bridesmaid and also officiated the ceremony. She's become a real pro! I now pronounce you Mr. & Mrs. Daniel Mummert!

The DJ played "Jump in the Line" by Harry Belafonte and a conga line instantly ensued. Most of you are probably familiar with this song from the movie Beetlejuice...so much fun. Shake, shake, shake, senora!
