The wedding has happened!!  Yay, what a great and glorious day it was!   The bridesmaids dresses were gorgeous, dark red and looked wonderful on all 5 of the girls.
Aliisa's dress was custom made by my friend Karen.    She has made over 20 wedding dresses in her years since college (and studying dress design).   Karen made the offer to Aliisa and she immediately said yes, she'd love that.   It was a wonderful experiance for all of us.
I'll do a special post about it with pictures.
