A Late Start and Calming Nerves

The day started off a bit rocky when Maudee, her sister, and their mother arrived behind schedule. They were understandably flustered, but with a few deep breaths and some reassuring words, we managed to calm everyone down.

Getting Ready: A Family Affair

Inside the charming preparation room, Maudee’s sister took charge of styling her hair, crafting a beautiful updo that perfectly complemented her bridal look.

A particularly touching moment was when Maudee’s mother fastened her wedding dress—a beautiful gown that had been worn by her mother 25 years earlier. This sentimental gesture added a layer of history and love to the ceremony.
