Olivia and Rich's Wedding

This weekend, I attended one of the most AMAZING weddings I've ever been to!  My friend, Olivia, who I know from back home in Massachusetts, followed me to Point Park University in Pittsburgh where she met her fiance, Rich, and they finally got married last Friday, July 3rd.  This has been a year and a half in the making, but they have been dating for about 4 years now.  Here's what I loved about the wedding:

1.   My friends from Andover were there

2.  My friends from Point Park were there

3.  It rained right before the ceremony, but then stopped, and Olivia's brother, Luke, and Rich's best man, Kevin, played "Here Comes the Sun" as

 an intro hymn....and the sun came out... :)

4.  Olivia smiled at me during the ceremony

5.  There was an open bar for most of the night, lol

6.  The wedding party did a medley of horrible MT numbers, but it was priceless!  ;)

7.  Their wedding cake was made of cupcakes

8.  The photographer was orgasmic!!!  www.hinkleyphotoblog.com

9.  I got to dance for most of the evening

10.  They had a photo booth and I got to play dress up

11.  The food was buffet style

12.  The colors were GORGEOUS!!!  (purples, white, and hot pink!)

13.  Rich and Olivia were happy... :)

A video montage of all the pictures I took is soon to follow.... :)

In the meantime, my BEST to Rich and Olivia, and I KNOW they love each other as much as I love them!  CONGRATS, you guys!  :)

Matt's Wedding

So last weekend was Memorial Day weekend, and it was probably one of the best weekends of my life.  One of my best friends from FIRST GRADE got married to his high school sweetheart.  Of course, I was in the wedding party, along with the rest of my guy friends who I met in elementary school, and I think we all agreed that it was so good seeing one another....

Eric (he's the tall one in the back) just got back from New Zealand, so most of us hadn't seen him in a year.  Tom (also in the back) and Will (he's the hairy jew on the side whom we also call by his last name, Shulik) live together in Boston, but I live in NYC, so I never see them.  And Steve (the cowboy...) lives with his fiance somewhere else in Massachusetts, so it's so hard for all of us to come together these days.  But despite the fact that we barely see each other and most of us haven't changed a bit since first grade, you could tell our friendships are still as strong as they were almost 20 years ago.  And that makes me happy....

I just want to finish by saying that I KNOW how lucky I am to have friends like this...  Not many people can say they have friends they still keep in touch with from when they were only about 6 years old, so I thank ALL these guys!  They were there for me during a time when I needed them the most, and I will never forget that.  I just hope one day I can return the favor....even if Eric DID hit me on the back of the head with a hammer....

....good times..... ;)
