The wedding was amazing! It was seriously a perfect weekend (weather-wise, people-wise, etc). I’m going to mostly let the pictures tell the story since they do the best job. I can’t wait to see the professional photos!
My sister has always talked about getting married in the Boston Public Garden and while that didn’t happen, the whole wedding party did head there to take photos, which was awesome.
All the girls:

My family!

We did most of the photos before the ceremony. At first I was totally against the idea of the groom seeing the bride before the wedding. BUT it worked out so well and saved so much time. Not to mention, they set up the most perfect setting for Adam to see Beth for the first time. It was beautiful and more private than it would have been otherwise (besides the fact it was in the middle of Boston and the entire wedding party was staring down the stairs at them).
Then came the ceremony. You have no idea how much I was shaking right here. I was SO nervous. It’s all a blur.

My dad and the beautiful bride:

And the reception, of course!

The cake was absolutely perfect:

Sisters!

Chels and I with my awesome cousin, Angela:

Me and my beautiful mom in her beautiful dress:

Dancing with my dad!

We had a blast dancing. Plus, I was just SO glad my speech was over (I was nervous!!). And for some reason Chels and Chris are holding hands. Interestinggg.

A bunch of the bridesmaids. And this is where I give a big THANK YOU to my sister for letting us wear such beautiful dresses! We all loved them and will likely wear them again. And the flowers looked soo pretty with them

My guest/+1. Just kidding, Chris was the best date ever!

Chels and I with my dad’s cousin Cathy who’s a reader of We are not Martha!

And this is probably my favorite picture because you can totally see how in love with Adam Beth is:

It was a wonderful weekend and I’m really not sure how it could have been any better. It was SO nice to spend some time with my relatives (though not enough time!) and to see my sister looking so beautiful and happy!
ALSO, I didn’t show you half of how pretty the reception was. But I’m going to leave that to Chels since she designed the place cards, table numbers, etc. But when I first walked into the reception hall, my breath was taken away, everything was so beautiful.
It was an awesome weekend and now I’m ready for a weekend of relaxation. I hope my sister and Adam are having a blast in Aruba. They’ll be coming home for 2 days and then heading to Hawaii where they’ll be working for 3 months! Of course, I’ll be visiting
Until then, life will return to normal and I’ll return to recipe posting!
Happy wedding Beth and Adam and thanks to everyone who made it so special!

Sues, your sister had such a beautiful wedding. Her along with all of the wedding party…looked lovely. I love a bridesmaid dress you can wear again!
What a wonderful wedding! It’s my absolute dream to get my pictures done at the BPG as well! It’s SO gorgeous!
Looks like quite the beautiful wedding. I particularly love the bridesmaid dresses. One quick question, do I need to re set up my google reader for your site. I’ve noticed that since you switched over to the new format I no longer get any updates.
What a beautiful, wedding! Congratulations! I loved all of your dresses – the bride’s, the bridesmaids’, your mother’s and Chel’s. I can’t wait to see the place cards and table numbers – I’m sure they are fabulous!
The wedding looks just lovely, love the dresses. Always good to be able to wear a BM dress again.
Congratulations!!!! Your sister looks so perfect, and you look gorgeous! Looks like an amazing wedding.
Hey roomie! Beautiful pictures, it looks like everyone had a wonderful time
Congratulations to the whole fam!
I tried to comment yesterday via BB but was having “technical difficulties.” The gist was that the wedding looks like a pretty person convention with the Anderson sisters obviously running the show. Chels’ dress is divine and you both look to have had handsome dates for the occasion…so so glad it went off so beautifully!!! Congratulations Beth and Adam!!
Great post. The entire wedding was a bunch of fun. Even though I was stuck on purse duty. The weekend felt like a vacation.
What a fabulous wedding! Looks like you guys had a blast, and congrats to your sis
Did I mention how beautiful the Maid of Honor was (and is)? And that her Toast/Speech to the Bride & Groom was spectacular?
Susie…thanks for all you did to make this Wedding so special for Beth & Adam and please thank Chris for all of his hard work following us around Boston for three days. I hope he’s being rewarded amply!
So many people are enjoying your Blog entries, not only those who attended but others who feel a little bit like they were there through your entries. Thanks for your absolutely wonderful, loving contributions to this memorable time!
What a gorgeous wedding! I hope your sister and her new hubs have a long and happy life together! And if I’d known you were so good with the invites, I would have sought you out a year ago!
these pics are beautiful! Love the dresses (bride and bridesmaids). AND CHELS’s dress…is it a Jcrew? It’s fab. Not sure I could pull off that grey, but it looks fab on her!
If anyone needs help writing a maid of honor speech Sues can help with that too! She made the greatest toast and got Adam pretty good in the end. Adam and I can’t thank you (and guest) enough for everything you did to make the entire weekend so special. We are having a blast in Aruba….. but miss you guys a lot! Love you!
Hey! I’m in that picture of you and your mom! Seriously, this was the most beautiful wedding. Chels, you did a great job with the design stuff, I loved the paper! Sues, you looked beautiful, and I loved your speech (maybe I should marry it?).
