"You don't marry someone you can live with, you marry the person who you cannot live without." - Anonymous
It was a pretty busy weekend, as a couple of our best friends FINALLY got married! They have been together for about 12 years, but planned the entire wedding in just about 2 months. And they pulled it off brilliantly. Friday night - after a whirlwind hair appointment and fighting traffic all the way there - we met them for the rehearsal dinner at this amazing little place in Westwood. It's called The Gardens on Glendon. Very cute decor and delicious food. It was fun seeing their families mesh together and built up the excitement for the big day. We also had a guest come in from out of town that night for the wedding. He stayed with us and we haven't seen him in a couple years so it was good catching up.
On Saturday I volunteered with another girlfriend to help set up flowers at the church before the ceremony. So she and I headed out a couple hours early to get all that done. Hubby had to go early as well to make sure the video camera was set up and ready to go. So we were all busy and running around. I think I hardly saw him at all until the reception! But everything turned out great. The ceremony went off without a hitch and then we hustled over to the restaurant to set up for the reception. Luckily our group of friends is very helpful and accomodating, so we got everything done just in time. Go team!
The reception was a blast. These two definitely know how to throw a party. For their first dance, they even busted out a Latin routine that had us all on our feet. It was so awesome. I felt like I was watching Dancing With The Stars! The rest of the night we all got the groove on and had a lot of fun. Until the sore feet set in, we were all going pretty strong.
The whole day/night was a great success and it was just so momentous to see our dear friends making the move for a lifetime together. I know it means a lot to both of them and of course we wish them all the happiness in the world! Cheers!
