Kelly and Alex’s wedding in May was quite an adventure.
It all started with a fun night of bachelorette debauchery in downtown Fredrick (Indian dinner and Dancing at NOLA) Friday night. On Saturday we had the rehearsal, then Laura, Kelly, the kids and Andy and I all went to Old Ellicott City to hang out. Then we had a really great Rehearsal dinner at a cool restaurant on a river in Columbia. That night we hung out at the hotel, with a lot of relatives, some beer and wine, putting together wedding booklets. And then day of the wedding dawned. I’ll skip over the chaos, and say that the ceremony was lovely and the church was beautiful. The reception was full of LOTS of dancing, I’ve never seen so many guests dance. It was great.
Here are just a few photos. I’ll be posting more on our Smugmug site, though I admit that I did not get many good ones. Too busy, sorry!
Interesting Fun Wedding Facts:
*Having all of my dad’s siblings together on the east coast was awesome.
*A wedding won’t be fun unless my cousin, Michelle and my Aunt Pam are there to help.
*My Mom and sisters are now required to plan and orchestrate Michelle’s wedding.
*Strangers are very kind, especially those who squeeze 4 bridesmaids in floor length royal blue dresses into a sedan’s backseat when their car breaks down. And then deliver the bridesmaids to a lake in a park. It is also lucky when you meet strangers going your way on a random 4 lane road in Columbia, MD.
*That anti-blister stick really does work. Makes 4″ heels possible.
