Weddings are an opportunity to celebrate a momentous life event, surrounded - in this case, quite literally - by friends and family. After the morning rehearsal, Callie, her bridesmaids, and both moms gathered to pray together before getting ready for the ceremony. This was taken right after, as Callie was enveloped in an outpouring of love and support. (I can't figure out how many people are hugging her.)

Behind the Image: A Little Help from My Friends
The prep part of the wedding day is full of excitement, anxiety - and with a little luck, a handmade dress from your clothing-designer friend. Heather has just slipped into her dress for the first time, and the tasks now are a) to make sure the dress fits, and b) to make sure she looks amazing in it.
(Both are accomplished.)
