In this photo, I'm not sure if Matt is pondering the instructions on how to sign the marriage license or if he's trying to decide if he SHOULD sign it or not!

Well, he ended up signing it, so it's official

Likewise the second witness, Maria

Good thing they had this piece of paper, or else no marriage for Brad and Alison - keep it in a safe place (away from Brad)

Who knew how competitive women could truly be?

Alison watches with anticipation as Brad flings the garter

Who knew Brad and Alison knew so few men?

Here we see Chapter II in the groomsmen's practical joke plan. We planned on getting two 1,400 pound hay bales to block in Brad's car during the reception (since his parents informed us that if we TOUCHED the car, we'd be shot). However, the hay took a bit to get there and Brad wasn't...in the mood...to delay his departure from the reception.

Several hours later, we find our couple reviewing the spoils of their marriage within a materialistic society - lots of gifts!
#Img_0907

Now, these ARE just towels...but the wedding cake look makes this gift easily one of the most memorable
#Img_0912

Gotta have those cheesy "look what we got" photos
#Img_0917

Matt, Emily, and Chris pose for a photo after the opening of presents (well, actually the couple opened SOME of their massive cache of gifts, they're saving the rest for when they get back from the honeymoon)
