Caitlin woke up early and came over. We set up as much as we could, then ran out of things to do as much of the doing was contingent on tables being set up. We went to get coffee. I ordered 2 lattes, one to drink there and one to take back with me, even though we would have coffee in the room were we were to get ready.
Next, Ken and some bros came by and, along with some ladies, we set up some of the larger decor. When that was finished, Ken and I practiced our dance on the dance floor. It still wasn't perfect, but it was good enough! Besides, people would have been drinking for hours by the time we danced, and we were sure it would look even better to the inebriated.

During this time, many friends and family members came up to say hello or help with the set up, and it was all greatly appreciated.
There was a possibility of rain that day, but the skies looked completely clear until about 4 o'clock when guests began to arrive for the cocktail hour. While I was getting my hair done, my hairdresser tired to reassure me that the ominous clouds did not carry rain, but I was skeptical.

I was beginning to get very nervous about the whole idea of getting married, regardless of rain, so I waited as long as I could to put my dress on. It seemed like once the dress was on, it was all going to happen.

The bridesmaids and I took a few group photos, and then went downstairs to line up for the ceremony...
....which was exactly when it started to rain.
