jessi & ariel <3

"what did you do for valentine's day this year, ashley? hang out with your girls? eat chocolate? watch sappy love movies?"
"well, no.. actually.."

we had the honor to attend and be a part of jessi and ariel's wedding. cara, robin, and i got there ("there" being the beautiful sea horse ranch) early in the morning (7:30-8ish) and set up the entire wedding site. from hanging flowers, to setting up the podium, to deciding and arranging what the chairs would look like, to tying all bows on the chairs.. we got it set up. after doing a 20 minute shower/get ready in the outside bathroom, we met the guests and chatted for awhile.. waiting for robin to drive the bride up :)

the wedding was beautiful and jessi of course looked absolutely stunning. the weather was perfect and the ocean background definitely didn't hurt the beauty of the wedding.. after the ceremony, we rode over to where the reception was to be held, set up all the tables, and awaited the bride and groom!

the reception was so fun. we ate together, had a few mini photo shoots, and hung out. it was a beautiful full day. it is really such a blessing to know jessi and ariel and to be a part of their lives. here is a little about what the day looked like:
