The night before the wedding, the bridesmaids threw a lingerie party for Jocelyn. We also gave Jocelyn a little "married woman's" advice. It was a late evening, as you can imagine. After all, that day we started with the Bridal luncheon, followed by the rehearsal and the rehearsal dinner. And then we had this party. I must admit though, as busy as the day and weekend was, we all found energy because of the excitement of the day and the joy of seeing family and friends.

Finally the big day was here! Daniele did an excellent job as our hairstylist. She really is talented. Jocelyn had a few ideas of her own and didn't hesitate to assist. Of course there were a few hiccups that morning. What wedding doesn't have those! The biggest one was the fact that all 5 bridesmaids had the same color dress except the sash in the middle was to be cream. Well one dress was ordered with the sash sand-colored! Since all of the bridesmaids live all over the world, we didn't see the other dresses until the wedding day. Each dress had been ordered and then hemmed and tailored to fit each bridesmaid specifically. We decided that if anyone of us should wear a different color, it should be the maid of honor. The problem was whether or not the dresses could be switched after so much adjustment. Well God is soooo good! When they switched dresses, they fit the other like a glove! It was so amazing how it worked out. We prayed then and there to thank God for taking care of all the details for Jocelyn's special day!
