Post-Wedding Comments

So, yesterday I got married! The ceremony and food were both lovely and quite eclectic. We got to see many of the special people who help make our lives worth living, and dance. I was not looking forward to the mandatory dancing part, but it wasn't so bad. And afterward we had fun-dancing too! "Soulja Boy up in it, oh!.." Haha. My dress looked really pretty, thank goodness - everything fit well. My sister Brittany was a phenomenal help with everything. A couple of my friends also kept me company during the getting ready process (which for the bride is QUITE a Process!). I was really glad to have them with me. Having a little wine while getting my hair done helped tremendously as well. :)

There were forecasts of rain in the afternoon and we'd hoped that the storms would wait to break until after the wedding. They basically did but we still had to have the ceremony inside. Everything still looked beautiful. The Marbury Center is a very flexible venue and I would recommend it to anyone! (The DJ Wayne from "Superior Light & Sound" is another story as He Sucked! I hated working with him but everyone else who didn't know what was supposed to be going on didn't notice how much he sucked at least, but I digress..)

John looked dashing and was of course, very sweet. I was extremely nervous! However, everything went well. There weren't too many screw-ups at least, and nothing terrible happened. We didn't fall out of the chairs as the men were lifting us, yay! We got some very nice presents and have been writing thank you cards today like responsible citizens.

Toward the end of the reception it started storming something fierce. When we were running to the car to leave the rain was torrential. Of course, immediately after we were safe inside the dry car, it let up. I can't wait to see the pictures..! All in all everything turned out great, and even though I was still very busy and a little stressed at the reception it was an enjoyable time. Many people pulled together to make our day fabulous, and I feel really special. The cake was awesome, I didn't puke or cry in front of everyone, I'm happy.

The bachelorette party was also amazing, but I won't get into that here. ;^D I'm still tired and a bit frazzled. After planning every little detail and stressing over it for a year, I can't believe it's almost all over. I am so relieved. I would try to sell my awesomely unique wedding dress if anyone would buy it. As Is of course. It's a bit messed up but fixable, heh. But right now John's out of the shower and I am going to get back to hanging out with him, drinking some wine and maybe listening to Van Morrison. Good night everybody.
