Benbow - Efird Wedding....AGAIN!

A week and a half ago was the BIG wedding...that some my think sounded like a do-over. ;) My baby sister, Courtney married my husband's brother, Shane. So it was another Benbow - Efird wedding almost 11 years after the first one. It was held at the same church and the same reception site!

The bride was BEAUTIFUL and the wedding turned out perfect. But I didn't expect any less. Courtney worked so hard being her typical "crafty" self to make things for the wedding. She borrowed picnic baskets and glass pitchers from family and friends to put on the tables at the reception site and made name tags for each of them showing who had shared them with her for the big day. The brown, pink and green could be found everywhere and looked like, what my husband would call, Pottery Barn. It was simple, yet elegant.

I was SO proud of Blake and Davis. They were both in the wedding and looked so handsome standing at the front of the church. They really were on their best behavior. Then came the reception where Blake decided to do the worm in front of everyone! It was SO surprising coming from Blake...and hilarious! He even did it TWICE!

It was a LONG day that started with me picking up the bride to be at 8am. We drove to Momma's house to pick up a few things then headed to the reception site to finish up some decorating. I had a 10:30 hair appointment (thanks so much Allison!), then it was time to head to the church to finish getting ready. The wedding was at 3pm, followed by LOTS of pictures and a PAR-TAY at the Woodrun Clubhouse.

I ended up sending Steve and the boys home (after Blake ended up with a dancing injury) so that I could help clean up and drive the newlyweds home. I didn't get home until 11pm, but it was so much fun and I wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else!

CONGRATS Shane and Courtney Efird! :) I guess there is no getting rid of either one of you now since you are family...TWICE! ;)
