The Wedding Weekend & Link Up On the Edge #96
Last weekend, we celebrated my brother-in-law’s wedding in Pennsylvania. It was a long, hot weekend, but we had a fantastic time. Both kids were in the wedding and I was completely dying over them in their tuxedos. It’s moments like these when the little devils are just too cute for me to even get all that mad at them! I am just going to flood this post now with photos from the weekend!
If you have a wedding coming soon, especially if you are the mother of the bride or groom, check out FamilyHype for some great tips on choosing what to wear.

And now your favorite posts from last week.
Nina of Sharing a Journey shared her insightful post, Middle Age Isn’t At All What I Thought. I can totally relate to so much of this post. If you are approaching middle age, already in it, or have passed through it, this post is definitely worth a read! What a crazy ride this life really is!
And Jodie of Jodie’s Touch of Style shared her post, 4 Online Thrift Tips to Make Shopping Easier. I do love a good second hand find and Jodie’s tips to make online thrifting easier are ever so valuable. If you are interested in shopping online thrift sites, definitely check out Jodie’s post!
I hope you enjoyed all the wedding photos! I have lots of great stuff coming to the blog in the next few months, so stay tuned! As always, I appreciate you all and the support you give to me! Have a fantastic weekend!
Keeping it on the edge,
Shelbee

I love Jodie!
And I’m thankful not to have any family weddings this year so I can really enjoy every one else’s!

Michele, thanks so much for reading! And I adore Jodie so much that I don’t even have the words to express it! As much fun as we had at this wedding, I think I am done with weddings for a while myself. The day was long and I was exhausted by the end of the weekend. I am still recovering and it’s Friday!

Oh these pictures are EVERYTHING! Your family is precious – oh those boys! Love! I also love that carriage the happy couple rode off in and of course the chucks under the dress – so smart. You look absolutely gorgeous in every photo my friend! What a wonderful time!

Kellyann, thank you so much for such a lovely comment! I think we cleaned up pretty nicely as a family! My boys are definitely tee shirt and basketball shorts kind of kids so getting them all fancy was quite a feat. But I do love the results. I hope you have a fabulous weekend, my friend.

Beautiful family! What a happy occasion! I love how the cousins are bonding! Congratulations to the newlyweds! 👏👏👏💘💘
I love your look from the rehearsal day. What brand are your shoes? Was it in the post? If so, I didn´t see it. They are gorgeous!
😘
shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com
Thanks so much, Helen! The cousins were just too much in all their cuteness! I shared this same outfit on my blog last summer here and the shoes have since sold out. They are from DSW and the brand is Nina. I love the metallic and they are actually really quite comfortable!
xoxo

The cousins are the cutest, they are going to remember fondly this happy occasions when older!
Enjoy the shoes since no one else can have them 😉

Aren’t weddings just the best?! We were celebrating our son getting married last weekend too. It was PERFECT. Those pics of your little guy and the flower girl dancing are darling. They were getting the job done. You looked lovely along with your handsome husband. XO

Oh my!!! I’m really glad that you decided to feature so many great shots of your recent family wedding. Seeing your two darling rascal boys is a delight!! The photos of you and your handsome husband are especially wonderful Shelbee. Weddings have a universal appeal across culture, race and religious affiliation that speaks to love, hope and joy. Your pictures capture those emotions so well.
You look stunning in your green dresses. The rehearsal dinner dress ( and a recent birthday?) so perfectly highlights your complexion and the cascade of pearls with the loden green dress is a genius way to create drama!!
Loved this post Shelbee!!
shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com
Jude, thank you so very much! You are so wonderful to leave such kind words for me. I rarely share photos of my family because I don’t want it to haunt them at any point! But there are certain occasions when I must share them. The weekend was filled with so many wonderful memories that will last a lifetime! I am so glad that you enjoyed the post!

Thanks for sharing the wedding photos! Not only did you look smashing, your boys are adorable! I have two “boys” as well (in their 30s now) and it brought back such memories of when they were small. Thanks for sharing this part of your life with us!

Rania Abdulla
Congrats to your bro in law! You looked great in that olive green dress and the kids were so adorbs! I love your hubs uniform. Love was definitely in that hot air 🙂
shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com
Rania, thank you so very much! It took me forever to decide which dress to wear but I am really happy with my choice. Although I was very hot all day, at least I was comfortable. Nothing too confining at all! And love was for sure in the air. What a fun time we all had! I think that was one of the last times my husband will wear his dress uniform before retirement, too. Such a shame because he is one good looking soldier, in my opinion!

I cannot with the boys in their tuxes!! And the dancing cousins!! Just cute!!!!
That wedding looks like it was so much fun. The Chucks!!!!!
You looked smashing! The layered necklaces were perfect and totally gave me flapper vibes {my favorite stylistic decade}.
Wishing the newly weds all the best…
shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com
Daenel, thank you so much! My feelings are the same about my boys in their tuxedos! It was just too darn much cuteness for me to handle! And the Chucks under the wedding dress were spot on! I do love the flapper style, too, and my layered pearls make frequent appearances, for sure.
