Wedding was amazing. I wanted karaoke, dancing, and firespinning. We thought that there was no way we could fit it all in. But then, it happened. My officiant (and ex-roommate, and wonderful friend) Joanna’s lovely new Friend that is a Boy came with firespinning equipment, and put on demonstrations on Friday and Saturday night, another friend put together a bunch of songs for us, which still another friend worked into an amazing playlist that had me dancing for hours, and my father brought his crazy collection of karaoke discs, the books and the karaoke system for a rocking karaoke night. Turns out that Nick’s family is very into karaoke – we had about half the family on both sides rocking it out until past midnight.
I could not have asked for anything more perfect. And of course, I was a weeping mess with a shit-eating grin on my face for the vast majority of it. And the couple of things that were a bit baffling, in retrospect, are completely hysterical – and very typical of my life.
All I can say is, I am incredibly blessed.
Spending the next day or so getting ready to fly to Italy (hello, goat cheese workshop!), but will post pictures from our amazing photographer (who’s also a good friend) when they happen.
