Day 6 - Rehearsal
Rehearsal was at 12pm so we were up and ready to go by 11am. We still needed to go pick up my grandma from her hotel and the flower girls from the airport. Poor little things were up at 5am that day to catch their flight. We make it to pavilion and meet Rev. Jack Day who is absolutely hilarious! Rehearsal starts and runs smoothly with the exception that one of our groomsmen didn't make it there in time. (let's just say he's lucky I didn't kill him) Anyways ...... everything went well and we were starting to get very excited.
Once Rehearsal was finished everyone went their separate ways for the afternoon. We had dinner reservations at Ohana at 5:15pm. For my mom, my bridesmaids and myself we had an afternoon of manicures and pedicures planned. No pictures of that since we really wanted to be able to relax and enjoy the afternoon.
We finished up with that and made our way to the Polynesian for our dinner reservations. I was very excited for this since I have heard so many great things about Ohana.
Dinner was great. Everyone had a blast and the food was awesome. My dad surprised me with a bracelet from Tiffanys at dinner and Andrew with a Kenneth Cole watch. We couldn't believe his generosity. I thanked him for the wedding gift but he said they weren't wedding gifts just a gift for the great 28 years.
After dinner and some dancing we were all ready to get on our way. Tomorrow was the big day. My mom, MOH Jen, Bridesmaid Bri and I had a relaxing night planned at the Grand Floridian. Andrews sister Angie (also a BM) couldn't be bothered to spend the night with us but by this time we didn't even care. Us four were looking forward to spending some time together.
So we jumped in the car with my dad and made our way to the hotel. What a beautiful hotel. We had a few issues checking in .... they wanted to put my mom and myself in a different building then the girls but that wasn't going to work since we had Anna coming to do all of our hair in the morning. My dad got everything figured out and we were on our way to our rooms.
We got to our rooms which were side by side (thanks dad
) and then decided to head out to do a little shopping and explore the hotel before we called it a night.
After about an hour or so we decided it was about time to head to bed so we all grabbed a tea and then headed back to our rooms. Anna was going to be there at 7:30 the next morning so we all wanted to make sure we got our beauty rest. :lol
Next up ..... Day 7 - WEDDING DAY!!!
