The day started out with a quiet breakfast, just Anthony and me, in the hotel restaurant. At this point, we were both pretty stressed and pretty nervous. It was wonderful to have some alone time with each other. I highly recommend scheduling this into your wedding week! We calm each other down in times of stress, which I'm sure will come in handy in our marriage!
Most of the day was committed to PAMPERING! My bridesmaids had come from all over the country, so I wanted all of us to feel pampered and beautiful. I took them to a fabulous restaurant for lunch, Perry's Steakhouse, where I went before my senior prom years ago. [ Insert flashback here to Clare in a ridiculous beaded prom dress ] During lunch, I gave them bridesmaid thank-you gifts.
After lunch, we moved on to mani-pedis and more girl talk.
Turns out my mom had never had a modern pedicure, so one sweet 'maid had to talk her through it. She was a champ!
Later on, it was time for the rehearsal! I hired day-of coordinators (BEST decision ever!), so I loaded up their SUV with all of my wedding day supplies. It felt AMAZING to be able to unload all of that, and not have to deal with it on my wedding day. The coordinators also helped direct the rehearsal with the priest:
My maid of honor brought along the fake bouquet she made me for the rehearsal. I'm not sure if this is a tradition everywhere, or just in the South. At all of the bridal showers, the maid of honor collects ribbons from the gifts to make the rehearsal bouquet.
After the rehearsal, we went straight on to the rehearsal dinner. Unfortunately, I was incredibly nervous after the rehearsal, so I completely forgot to take pictures of the rehearsal dinner AND we forgot to do any toasts!
We had a wonderful location for the dinner, in a private room at Chabuca's, a Brazilian-style churrascaria steakhouse. Similar to Fogo de Chao, servers walk around with big skewers of meats and cut off what you want. Plus there's a giant salad bar. Chabuca's is run by a really nice man from Texas who married a really nice woman from South America, so the price is about a third of Fogo de Chao! Everyone loved the dinner, because there's literally something for everyone.
