Wedding Day

 June 12, 2021, 5:30 AM, I cant sleep. 

It's raining on the day of my outdoor wedding, so naturally, I go wash my truck in the rain. I can't believe its my wedding day. We waited a year and a half for this day, and all of a sudden, its here. 

The rehearsal dinner the night before was so fun. Family, friends, laughter. We ate too much and drank a little, giving speeches and sharing stories, crying and hugging. It was family. Afterwards, I had gone to Billy's family's cabin up at the lake to chat with them before the big day. It was really nice to be able to just sit and relax with Billy's family. He made sure to get me home before midnight though, because he wanted to call and say goodnight, but refused to talk to, or see me, past midnight cause then it was technically the wedding day. 

Miranda (my best friend and maid of honor) and I hopped in my truck, with some posters and a staple gun to go have us a morning of fun. We hung 6 or 7 "Falk/Wisor Wedding" posters directing people to my house, and went to my favorite coffee shop to get breakfast and a coffee before heading to Safeway to buy the stuff to vandalize the "getaway car" with. 

As soon as we got back to the house, it was already bustling with activity. The sun was finally shining!  Tents were being decorated in the front yard, fruit kabobs were being made in the kitchen, and my giant dress was being steamed in the garage. I tried to help out, keeping my eye on the hours slowly counting down. Bridesmaids started showing up, drinks got poured, and we got the Bridal Beauty Train underway. 

Now, I don't know if you have ever witnessed a bunch of nervous, possibly tipsy girls get ready before, but let me explain it to you. 

There was one, minor and short freak-out by the bride,  three spiked Redbulls, one curling iron, and an epic, once in a lifetime experience, concert.  There were side conversations, questions that had no answers, lots of A-Capella, a little High School Musical, makeup advice from people who had no business giving it (me), a cloud of hairspray, at one point, my little brother was in the mix somewhere. Alas, somehow, the end result was two beautiful, perfectly pampered bridesmaids, and one bride. 

We had 15 minutes until I had to be walking down that isle and the nerves were growing. My mom was still getting on her dress, my flower girls had no idea what they were doing, and I didn't know either. I wasn't in my dress. I hadn't seen my dad, and I didn't even know if my dress was going to button. 

The next thing I can remember, my dad has a grip on my arm, keeping me from falling. I was walking towards Billy but I couldn't remember what number I was at. Was I walking too fast? It was supposed to take me 45 seconds. Then, I was holding Billy's hand. That felt like a lot less than 45 seconds. 

Life slowed down once I was facing Billy. He threw me a wink, and I knew I was standing up there with my best friend. Everything else would be ok. While our pastor was talking, we tried to slyly get my ring off my finger so Billy wouldn't have to fumble with it later, but he almost dropped it. I couldn't stop smiling. The ring ceremony went perfectly (we had both been worried about the rings fitting... it was a whole ordeal the day before) He mouthed that he loved me. I was holding hands with my best friend on our wedding day, and I knew that everything was going to be ok. 

The rest of the wedding went off without a hitch. It was a complete blast. There was family, and pictures, and games on the lawn. The food was amazing, the speeches were beautiful, and I got initiated into the Walters/Wisor family (I'd tell you what happened, but then I'd have to kill you ;)). We cut the cake with a sword (yeah, an actual sword.) The getaway car was completely trashed. Sawdust was everywhere, Loser was written on the trunk in lipstick (the L was backwards), and the doors were twined shut. 

Luckily, we had hid my truck so my dad could go fetch it for us (haha, jokes on you, boys), we hopped in my clean, white truck and sped off into happiness.  

I can't believe that it happened. It was crazy, and fun, and amazing and I can't thank the people that helped, enough. Everybody was so kind and generous, you have truly filled mine and William's life with love and happiness. We are so excited to share this adventure with you!!! Here are some of the photos our guests took and sent us <3
