So, my wedding is today (its like 2AM) and i'm setting aside this cozy little spot for pictures.
I had one H dash dash dash of aday.
Woke up at 8, went to the lodge to decorate, did that until 12, then I got my eyebrows waxed (HELLO!!)
Then my friend Mandi picked my up there and we got McDonno's. And stopped at her house so she could get overnight stuff. She hads had a crummy day with her perants the day before and called her boyfriend's mum to talk. After answering a brief knock at the door, Mandi returns ith a mug of live flowers and a card from her boyfriend's mum saying she hopes she cheers up. It was sweet. Mandi decided to bring it with since no one would be able tocarefor the flowers. We hada LOT to pack into her compact car, and packwe did.
Mandi set the flowers on the roof to freed up her hands and then....we left. Halfway down the highway Mandi breaks into words I've only ever heard my dad utter from beneath the belly of a wrecked car. I was all like ''chii?'' and she was like '' I LEFT THE **** flowers on the CAR!!!" andshe pulled over and said '' if they're still on the roof im going to sh**". So she got out and looked and....they weren't there.
So we turned around to make sure there wasn't broken ceramic in her driveway (she shares the driveway with ehr landlord). And sure enough inthe driveway is the flowers. and even more amazingly, the vase/m,ug was perfectly intact, but all the flowers were beheaded upon falling. she gathred upt he sad remains and brought them along to the rehearsal.
We picked up some groomsman at the hotel and Iwas 30 minutes late for rehearsal because I just ran out oft ime for everfrything and I was smelly. That made me sad. And my armpits were hairy. Usually that doesn't bug me, I just tell people i'm European but my family knows i'm know Euro so I just bear hugged myself all day.
Our minister said he didn't want to say the exact words today, that he wanted to save all the formality and pleasantries for tomorrow. So he wouldsaystuff like
"Ok now just repeat after me.... " I Ricky.....dohere by take..."
And you repeat after me.. 'I Lucy...to hereby take..."
And tehn he replaced the word ''ring'' with ''cigar band''. He kept calling us ''Lucy and Ricky'' and then he said ''and now I say 'and I now pronouce you....but I caqn't say husband and wife...thats for tomorrow, I need to say something like...."
"Peanut butter and jelly?" I substituted
"PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY!"
I intro'd myself the rest of the night as Lucy Jelly.
After that part Erron's best man has to say to the crowd " Ladiesand gentlemen, I give you Mr and Mrs Flaherty..." But by this time Eugene and caught on and wewere presented as ''Mr and Mrs Pacman"
Our minister is a hoot.
So then we went to mum's for rehearsaldindin. It was yumlicious. And mum busted out the chocolate fountain. Erron's perants were pleased. It all just went so well. And then one of the groomsmana nd my bridesmaid fell asleep on the couch together. And we all took pictures.
Everyone left, including Erron (Im at mum's house) and its now like 2am and I JUST got my shower (Erron had tobring my overnight stuff over) and I just finished some last minute decor.
I'm ready for bedf. tomorrow is the big day. I'm reserving this spot for picturs for you all, they should be up by the end of the weekend, some at least anyways, I hope to get a video of the wedding up on youtube for all my beloved RO members who can't make it.
So, stay posted for pictures, get all excited, ok?
peace out
