After the rehearsal at The Lodge we went out to Giordano's for dinner. It was a great time! The pizza was phenomenal and we enjoyed spending time with our close family and friends.
At the rehearsal dinner we were given "blessings" from each of our guests. This was a creative gift that Paula (Griff's mom) arranged for us. Rudy and she sent out letters to the wedding party asking them to give us their own message of encouragement by turning an everyday object into a blessing. We were astounded by the response....the gifts were very memorable, creative, fun and sweet. (For example, my girlfriend Jen gave us a Shout stain remover pen with a note that said "Because love keeps no records of wrongs"). Everyone did a wonderful job and we will cherish those blessings for years to come.
Below is a picture of me crying, and Griffin laughing at me, as I tried to read one of the blessings. I didn't make it past the first line of the note and had to hand it back to him to read. It was an emotional weekend! :)
