Well this was a first ... we've had bride's that were a little under the weather, but we've never had a bride with pneumonia on her wedding day! Ivy is such a trooper! She spent the Friday before her wedding at the hospital! There was even the possibility she wouldn't make it to the rehearsal. The rehearsal can go on with a bride, the wedding can not! Ivy ended up showing up for the rehearsal to watch. I know she felt awful, but she hung in there! She made it through the wedding day okay too! My heart just went out to her because I know she has better visions of her wedding day. Matt was so patient with her ... so sweet!

The ceremony was full of unique things : a bilingual ceremony, Time of Worship led by a family friend, Chuppah, and the incorporation of the families. I love when couples do things a little differently! Ivy and Matt's parents stood under the Chuppah with both ministers for the entire ceremony. They had the best seats in the house (well, actually they stood). Everything was said in English and following in Spanish. It made the ceremony a little longer than most, but it was well worth it for Ivy and her family.

I hope Ivy has fully recovered and is able to enjoy the wedding video and pictures (even though she didn't get to enjoy the wedding to it's fullest).
