More pictures are coming soon, but here is a brief recap of the world's best weekend. Let's start allll the way back in September.
My co-workers threw me a "Depth and Complexity" shower. Kevin was even able to make an appearance. Check it out:
The shower was super nice and a great transition from school into... awesomeness.
I was out of school Thursday for a conference, so Friday was my first day off before the wedding. I met my mom at the Wyndham. These views from the hotel were taken throughout the weekend, but let's look at them here to paint a picture of the setting:
Holy gorgeous weather! Once there, I visited with my dad and Aunt Deb/Uncle Wayne, then headed out to get my hair cut. Before:
After:
We then met Carrie-Anne at the nail salon for the longest pedicure of all time. Too bad we had to practically hitch a ride home!
We made it back just in time for the rehearsal, which started late anyway:
We attempted to avoid the other guests at the hotel in order to not start any controversy. Look closely to see why:
Next was the rehearsal dinner at Doc Taylors, catered by Tau Togs. We had delicious dinner (scallops barca... mmmm.)
Great food, great people, great time. The hit of the evening (besides the Phillies game) was the games that Raf and I purchased for the wedding party. Everyone had to guess which game was theirs. Todd's Saved By the Bell game makes a guest appearance here.
From top to bottom you see here: me and my brothers, my Aunt Kath, Uncle Dave, and cousin Thomas, my dad and his wife Gayle, and me and Kevin with the corn hole groom's cake.
We had a great time hanging out at the hotel Friday night, then woke up bright and early Saturday morning to get ready. Some beauty shots of myself, Carrie-Anne (Blue Ball bridesmaid) and Brynn (flower girl):
And THEN... the ceremony. ideo will be posted later:
Next was cocktail hour and pictures:
Then the reception began. Let's start with the civilized pictures:
And then the crazy times:
Ah, good times. Afterward, we all changed, then headed out to the beach for a corn hole tournament:
The next morning, we had breakfast with the lingering guests, then headed to the Taphouse for the game.
We picked up the dog, dropped off the tuxes, and played some games with Matt, Lindsay, Dayna, and the Psimases. On Monday, we took the day to relax by having Chick-fil-A breakfast, walking the dog on the beach, and heading to the airport with Matt and Lindsay.
All in all it was the BEST weekend. The pictures will keep coming, so keep checking! Thank you, thank you, thank you to all our friends and family who joined us and those who sent their congratulations!
