The Wedding

This wedding I went to this past weekend was easily the best wedding I've ever been to. I don't recall ever having that much fun. The wedding itself went really, really well. I was incredibly nervous to do my reading, but I didn't screw up, yay!

The dinner and reception were also a lot of fun. I hung-out with the bridesmaids and my new Coast Guard friends before dinner and then got to sit with some of them at dinner. The food was incredibly. Holy wow, I have never had food like that at a wedding before. And the desserts were to die for.

Then we got to the dance. I only remember really dancing at one wedding before. And I'd had a few drinks to help me relax. This time, I decided I just wanted to have fun. And so I did. It was a little awkward at first because everyone was dancing as couples, even to the fast songs. I danced with my dad to a few songs at the beginning.

I was talking to Kim and we decided that we needed a good "girl" song to dance to. The next song that played was "Brown-Eyed Girl." She and her husband, Scott, and I went out and partied it up :) Next up... "Coba Cabana." Jess, Kim, and I (even though we were in disbelief) kept the dancing going through Barry Manilow. And then we hit the "Electric Slide." The DJ said he'd never had a group that big all know that dance at a wedding before. Yay us! The last song I really remember dancing to was "Love Shack." We copied the music video and formed two lines and had people dance down the middle. Oh man, it was a really good time. There some other songs in there, but nothing else too memorable.

So yeah, the wedding was wonderful. I definitely made the right decision in going. I got Kim's contact info so she and I can keep in touch. It was a weekend that I will always remember.
