W Plus 1...
I wake up and what's this shiny thing on my hand!??
All-in-all.. everything came out excellent! Thank you everybody who helped out, especially Fluffielady's Aunt and cousins, and my family friends who went balls to the walls in decorating and producing all the reception dinner tableflowers! It was a beautiful day, at the beginning it was ok and on schedule. We took pics at the palace of fine arts.. and whats the wierdest thing you could see?
Uh, You park cars there.. not your sheep!
Yea, uh whats up with the sheep? Just because theres 3 bridal parties at the palace of fine arts doesn't mean someones gotta bust out the sheep! We took our pics at the palace and headed back to the church for a 'rehearsal'.. yea right.. it was a cluster.. Wheres this, wheres that.. jeez! We went to the hall and saw how it was decorated.. it was but wasn't what we expected.. but at that time it was W minus 20 minutes, thats it.. just let it go, it's too late at that point.. It looked excellent none the less..
This whole week was a blur, but once the ceremony began, time went back to normal, acutally it slowed greatly.. It's probably all the kneeling, standing, going to fluffielady's right side.. left side.. without trampling the dress.. Anyways it was a fun mass. Now everybody at work is gonna call me Toasty.. There was a reason my wedding invite had 'Toasty' on it.. The whole bride's side only knows me as Toasty. At the ceremony both my names were used, at first i thought 'jeez' i thought this is a formal deal, you know the whole church, priest thing.. but i figured it's starting to loosen up and the priest seemed cool about it, so i decided to have fun with it.
The reception was excellent.. i think we were a bit early on our scheduling.. Both of our parents had good speeches, but my brothers was one of those excellent hearttouching ones. Our photographer is a pretty cool dood. He was active in going here, n there taking this and that.. and wasn't too directive, but only to make the shot good. We got into the reception early and all the neceessary events occurred, quite quick, what was left was the open dance. Our first dance we wanted to practice, but never got to since the whole week flew by, it worked out. I was a bit tired at that stage, but i'm glad Fluffielady took the attention away from me with her improv dance action. When it was open dancing time, we thought it was 8:30-9pm.. but it was really 7pm.. Fluffielady really wanted to dance the night away, but this one night seemed to slow down really really slowly.. which was good, we got to roam around chat with peoples n what not. Our caterer was excellent, everything was done up all pretty, and the service was really good. I think our only booboo, was that when everything was done, i guess we were supposed to fold up all the tables and put the chairs away. But when we got to the hall early in the morning, there was a dinner the night before and the tables were laid out AND the hall was a mess, with spillage and everything. I got the message from the church people a bit too late. I hope it got fixed.. *doodoo*
Whelp i've gotta setup for the brunch and present opening.. weeeee!
