This past weekend was the wedding of the YEAR!! one of my closest and dearest friend S just got married to j!! we have been planning and preparing for this day since for a year! it was by far one of the nicest weddings that I have attended and helped out. I was a little worried that she was going to have a nervous breakdown but S did a wonderful job on everything.. From looking so beautiful in her wedding dress and having her hair done to her elegant but cozy wedding reception! She planned everything so well with D. She couldn't have picked a better father to marry her and J. He was great! He made it fun yet special during her ceremony (Which reminded me of mine). To having made sure that the bridesmaids' bouquets were beautiful yet simple all at the same time. To making us all feel special. They made sure to spend time with all the guests to thank them for coming. Which I find VERY important. And at the same time having a great time themselves. But most important the food was yummy! I was really happy that I was able to eat some food, enjoy myself, and make sure that the reception ran smoothly with D. She was a JOY to work with. I even made us way ahead of schedule without making the bride or groom feel rushed! :-D It was by far a really nice wedding. I just hope that S felt that I was honestly there for her because I was also her matron of honor.
Although I won't lie there were some hiccups.. For instance our wonderful friend's husband M not following directions well and then handing off his duty to the DJ!! First off he made himself feel that he was such an 'important' part of the wedding.. So first off he didn't mention TWO of the names on the list of families that were on the brides' side.. umm it's written you dumb A@S!! How could you forget and you had S read off all the names to you so that you'd be able to pronounce it!! BTW, he recorded her saying it too.. yeah smooth move buddy.. And it's just funny because he has been practicing and everything!! Yeah you are a great MC - remind me to ask you to speak at a function I throw - NOT... To announcing things that aren't supposed to yet.. smooth like butter. This all from a man whom 'claims' to be a professional Opera Singer.. Which for as long as I have know him (a whole two years and then some) hasn't had a job. And is now a teacher. sorry it's just hard to like someone whom always doesn't things to annoy the heck out of me. Oh and yeah the day before at the rehearsal to make him feel special.. He arrives late at S and J's rehearsal dinner and has L introduce him to everyone.. ummm just sit your A@S down it's not your day.. You'll meet them when you meet them. Sorry just need to get that off my chest.
