I’ve always dreamed of the day when I would get to be a bride….and not just always a bridesmaid! Hehe…I’ve always loved weddings, ever since I was a little girl and now the time has come to plan it! I’ve been named a bridesmaid a few times now and I always felt so cherished when a friend asked me to stand by their side on one of the most important days of their life, so I do hope the following ladies will feel the same way:
Matron of Honor: Natalie Adams- Natalie and I have been friends for years. We used to live practically next door to one another and we’ve been through a lot. She’s a true friend and I love her to pieces…
Bridesmaids:
Candy Shook
Brandi Black
Linda Tinney
Jennifer Williams
Tiffany Miller
Flower Girls:
Haley Grace Shook (she will be four)
Maggie Shook (she will be two)
Lindsay Miller (she will be two)
Reghan and Reese Black (twins who will be three)
Reilly Black will be five and he will do the honors of being our little ring bearer.
Well Crystal, this comment is long overdue. I know I told you on the phone how happy I was for you, but I want you to know that I truly mean it. I knew from the minute you talked to me on tha beach in Coco Cay, Bahamas that you were a great person. Although, at the time, I had no idea that we get remain friends three later and more to come. You definitely deserve the best in life, and I am so glad that you have found in it Shane. He certainly sounds like the absolutely perfect guy for you. I can’t wait to meet him and have him make fun of my “Chicago” accent just like you do :-). By the way, when my time to get married comes, I am hiring you as my wedding planner :-). You rock at this! THere is no way I would have all this stuff figured out so soon, how much do you charge?? (j/k)

Crystal,
Congrats!!! I am very happy for you and Shane is a very lucky young man. My prayer for both of you comes from Numbers 6:24. “May the Lord bless you and keep you; may he make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you.”
I would love to see your dress sometime and I know you are going to be a beautiful bride. Just be yourself and the beauty will shine through from the inside out.
Love and Best Wishes,
Aunt Jennifer
Thanks so much for your kind words and encouragement! I am so excited…the plans are already a bit overwhelming, but alot of fun at the same time. Shane truly is my blessing…
Maybe you can go with me to a dress fitting once it comes in sometime!
I am so happy for you both. Crystal has been there for me through a lot. Especially getting me through the New Year that we went skiing and eventually led to my wedding day. Now I am honored that I get to share that important moment with her. Shane is a very lucky man and I know that ya’ll will go far in the marriage since you both already have Christ at the center of your lives. Just remember Phil 4:13…I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. The both of you will go far together as long as you don’t put Crystal on a latter.
Love ya and Congratulations,
Natalie
Oh the ladder…we won’t even go there!
