Chelsy and John Maxwell 3: Will There Be a Welcome Home Party?

Melanie and Elissa DEFINITELY did not cover their collarbones. They wore the camis but did not haul them up to their neck. As a result, they looked far more chic and modern than any of their sisters-in-law, while still remaining entirely modest and tasteful. I noticed that the first time through.

I wouldn’t ever get married in a church. I’d feel too hypocritical as an atheist. Plus, as someone who hates being the centre of attention, walking down an aisle where the whole point is that everyone’s watching you is my idea of pure hell. 

Wychling insisted that her father and I walk with her to the spot where her soon-to-be-husband waited with the witch* who performed the ceremony.  We all did well, no anxiety or panic.

*Celebrant is a longtime witch and a thoroughly delightful lady who also doesn't like to be the center of attention.  She does marvelous goddess lectures, though.

Can I just stay that these blog posts got me through my anxious Watchening of the newest Rodrigues baby. With a lack of pictures over there, these wedding photos were a nice distraction.

Ready for more and for the Maxwell response post! So far we have not heard anything of the ceremony vasectomy talk. Maybe the Bontragers were truly embarrassed by it?

Daddy Bontrager was the one who brought it up! Although I can almost guarantee the Mennonite realatives wre uncomfortable. They don't openly talk about such things (nor do many others in general society).

Very true, but since Allison and Chelsy didn't mention it in their posts I have to wonder if daddy Bontrager was alone in thinking that would be a fun fact appropriate for a wedding.

I'm sure Chelsy is extremely grateful for the vasectomy reversal because otherwise her Johnny boy wouldn't have been born. But Chelsy is probably not wanting to talk publicly about her father in laws genital surgery. I imagine she would rather a vague, "I believe in having as many children as god provides. Because trusting in God gave me the love of my life!"

At my cousin's wedding, there was a shout out to my grandparents for their 60+ years of marriage, but it was a really subtle, "We're all here today because two people fell in love" type sentiment, with no mention of my grandfather's genitals. Like normal people.

So after Judgy Chelsy posts a few pics of the wedding Poor Sarah does the same.  She even went off the posting schedule!  Becky Bontrager looks like she could be a real bitch.  Sarah also acknowledged someone other than Prissy Chris took the pics and it was a woman!

Allison also posted about their wedding on the Bontrager blog. They must’ve sent them the full album of pictures of something. Allison acknowledge the drone episode and she said that she was glad Chelsy married into a family with a sense of humor. The Maxwell’s? Sure Allison, sure

You can see a huge difference in John walking Teri down the aisle vs his MIL, on the Bontrager page Steve looks annoyed in the last photo while John is smiling at him. Allison should have phrased it more along the lines of Chelsy married a man with quite a sense of humor or something.

and of course Sarah has to mention that their would be no wedding without the reversal. not surprising the Maxwell's went off schedule to post. they hate being one upped.

My favorite part of the ceremony might just have been when Mr. Bontrager asked my younger siblings to step forward. You see, if it hadn’t been for Dad and Mom’s change of heart regarding children, those lives wouldn’t be here. Including, no wedding for John and Chelsy. A very tender moment.

"The dashing groomsmen: John chose his brothers, brothers-to-be, and best friend."

 

A Maxwell with a NON-SIBLING best friend???

No wonder his mother was wearing black.

Just curious, who was the best friend?  Was it Jon-Marie?

No, it's a Hale (from the Buckinghales).

I see Joe had to air out his balls.

I wish I could ask the makeup artist what she was thinking when she chose that kinda corpsey pink-brown for Chelsy's lip color. 

Someone must have pulled her aside and said something, because she switched from brown to pink at some point. The second one looks a million times better.

I don't like "first look" pictures at all, nor the practice of it.  There's nothing like the groom waiting for his bride to walk up the aisle, and seeing him light up in awe at how beautiful his love looks. 

Well we did photos before the ceremony as we didn’t want our guests have to wait around for hours while we did photos. We went straight from ceremony to cocktails (tropical wedding!) so that’s why we did the first look. It’s because we were trying to be thoughtful about our guests who’d we already forced to fly to the tropics for our wedding lol

So why is Chelsy known as Judgy Chelsy? 

I call her Judgy over the way she criticized a locksmith over the way he was dressed when he came to unlock the keys out of her car.

I would be super pissed if anyone in my immediate family wore black to my wedding.  Thumbs down to you, Teri Maxwell.  And to the rest of your holier-than-though brood, John excepted because it's his wedding.

Notice how the Maxwell spinsters were escorted out by a boy younger than 18.

well from the few pictures it looks like they paired all the married couples together. then their was Allison and Jessie as best man and maid of honor. I'm guessing John's best friend and Chelsey Pastor's wife friend walked together. so really that didn't leave anyone for else for the unmarried sisters.

Actually, I think the second picture shows her post-kisses, after that yucky taupe color wore off; could be her natural lip color we're seeing in photo #2.
